Now You're Cooking!

Regardless of whether you enjoy cooking or perhaps you love fine-dining, chances are that you have a collection of recipes stored that you would like to try.

Now You're Cooking! is an application designed to help you manage all aspects associated with cooking, from gathering various recipes that you find interesting to learning about the vitamins available in a dish.

Granted, one of the primary roles of the program is to help you develop a comprehensive database of cooking recipes that you would like to try at some point. You should know that the existing database is neatly organized and includes all details necessary, from ingredients and their quantities to the method of preparation and steps you need to follow for cooking.

Despite its name, the utility is much more than a tool to store cooking recipe. To be more precise, you can create advanced shopping lists that feature all ingredients you need for a delicious family dinner as well as the aisles where you can find them at your favorite grocery store.

In addition to being a cyber-cookbook and a shopping list generator, the app can also provide you numerous details regarding the nutritional facts of sole ingredients as well as finished recipes. The information can come in handy if you are on a diet and need to improve your vitamin A or D intake, for instance.

Speaking of diets, the program comes with a nutritional database that enables you to search for single items and learn the amounts of calories, vitamins and minerals available in a standard serving, type of carbohydrate, cholesterol, caffeine, water or sodium present. On a side note, you can edit and update information that is unavailable for the ingredients you are using on a regular basis.

Since keeping them as a bunch of index cards in a folder is not going to work for larger databases, then you should keep in mind that Now You're Cooking! enables you to manage recipes, ingredients and enter down various notes, such as the caloric or nutritional intake.
