Ratings and reviews

Bait and Switch: I love Bloody Mary's and they have this gorgeous picture of one for this drink. You click on this and it takes you to all the recipes but none match the picture shown. It looks like a decent app and good for ideas and I admit I haven't delved deep in the app but this particular instance was one of those times and it was disappointing to see what looked intriguing but lacking recipe matching the picture.

Like others, I had trouble with the scanning feature unable to scan. I was more interested in the meal planning feature. However, there isn't the ability to select dietary restrictions such as "gluten free" and no where to limit food allergens such as nightshades (peppers & tomatoes) in the recommendations. So the first 7 suggested meals were all food that my family couldn't eat without some major altering. Adding these feature would be very helpful for busy families with difficult food options.

Wow! What cool upgrades to the app! There are recipes, of course, and a fave list. But now there are videos with tips. The shopping list can compile all your week's worth of ingredients for a custom meal plan. You can specify preferences of some flavor/spice types and several cuisines and diet choices. AND you can scan the barcode or label of spices and a nice variety of brands of products like Thai Kitchen, Frank's Red Hot, McCormick's etc to build your own pantry list! I love it!
