Recipe using other recipes as ingredients iEat supports recipes that use other recipes as ingredients. For example this screen shot shows a recipe that uses two other recipes, Mushroom Stock and Tart Dough as ingredients. When you generate a shopping list from recipe like this, the referenced recipe ingredients are added to your list, too. | Registering for iEat account: In order to create your own recipes, you must register. Registration is easy. |
Creating a new recipe, part 1: iEat supports multiple measurement systems. When you create a new recipe you choose what system the recipe uses (i.e. metric, US). | Creating a new recipe, part 2: Creating a new recipe is simple to do. You just fill in the form, adding as many ingredients and instructional steps as needed. |
Convert recipe measurement system: For any recipe you can display it in an alternate measurement system. For example you can display a metric recipe using US measurements. | Create meal plans: meal plans let you group multiple recipes together, and from there generate shopping lists. |
Viewing a meal: Here you can see a meal plan that uses three recipes. | Generate a shopping list: you can let iEat generate a shopping list of all ingredients for all recipes used in your meal. The list will consolodate all the ingredients from each recipe and display them in alphabetical order. |
