Act as an elite nutritionist and culinary strategist with expertise in meal prep optimization and dietary science. Create a comprehensive [MEAL_PLAN_DURATION] meal plan following these exact specifications:

**DIETARY PROFILE:**
- Eating Pattern: [DIETARY_PREFERENCE]
- Daily Caloric Target: [CALORIC_TARGET] calories
- Macronutrient Distribution: [MACRO_FOCUS]

- Budget Range: [BUDGET_RANGE]
- Available Kitchen Equipment: [KITCHEN_EQUIPMENT]
- Meal Frequency: [MEALS_PER_DAY] main meals + [SNACKS_COUNT] snacks daily
- Servings per Meal: [SERVINGS_COUNT]

**OUTPUT REQUIREMENTS:**

2. **Daily Breakdown** (repeat for each day):
   - Daily calorie/macro totals (Protein/Carbs/Fats)
   - Each meal component with:
     * Recipe title
     * Prep time | Cook time | Total time
     * Ingredient list (precise measurements)
     * Numbered cooking instructions (clear and concise)
     * Nutritional estimate per serving

4. **Substitution Matrix**: For each main meal, provide 2 alternative ingredients with equivalent macros

**STRATEGIC PLANNING SECTIONS:**
- **Batch Cooking Strategy**: Specific Sunday/Wednesday prep tasks to minimize weekday cooking time
- **Weekly Grocery List**: Organized by store layout (Produce → Proteins → Pantry → Dairy/Frozen) with exact quantities for the full [MEAL_PLAN_DURATION] period
- **Flavor Profile Rotation**: Ensure textural and taste variety (crunchy, creamy, spicy, fresh) across the week
- **Leftover Utilization**: Designate which dinners become next-day lunches

**SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS:**
[ADDITIONAL_NOTES]

**FORMATTING RULES:**
- Use clear markdown headers and bullet points
- Bold allergen warnings
- Include cost-saving tips if [BUDGET_RANGE] is restrictive
- Note equipment alternatives if recipes require specific tools not in [KITCHEN_EQUIPMENT]
