not what I expected. It only generates recipes based on a few core ingredients...I thought it would use all of the ingredients in my pantry. nope! So it's not really doing what it's title describes. Also, there's no diversity in these recipes? they're all the same and completely basic...which I guess would be okay for some people? I paid for premium, thinking that would get me access to something better, which was not the case at all. I'm really disappointed and I really need that $5 back please

I’m sorry Pantry to Plate didn’t meet your expectations. Results depend on the number and variety of ingredients entered, so adding more items creates broader matches. Premium adds planning tools, not different recipes. Your refund was processed.

I would like to have the ability to share the app with my husband so we can either one have the same pantry list and make meals...I would pay for this
