      Quick answer

      Instead of finding a recipe and then shopping, this works the other way round: type or photograph the ingredients you have, and AI suggests a recipe that mainly uses them – with amounts, steps and nutrition per serving.

      Search by ingredient, not by recipe

      Classic recipe sites start with the dish and hand you a shopping list. Standing in front of the fridge at night, you have the opposite problem: the ingredients are there, the dish is missing. This tool starts from what you have and marks every ingredient as available or to add.

      How to enter your ingredients

      Results are most accurate when you combine photo and text: the photo shows your fridge, the text field lists pantry items like rice, pasta or canned food. Amounts such as “4 eggs” or “250 g ground beef” help with servings and nutrition. Salt, pepper, oil and spices are assumed to be available.

      Example ingredient lists

      InputPossible direction
      Eggs, spinach, feta, tomatoesOmelette or shakshuka-style dish
      Rice, chicken, bell pepper, onionRice skillet
      Pasta, tuna, tomato pastePasta with tuna tomato sauce
      Oats, quark, bananaHigh-protein porridge or overnight oats

      The table only shows possible directions – the actual recipe depends on the goal you pick. More on how it works in the fridge-to-recipe tool.
