Cook4Lyfe

We all have experienced a time when we were very hungry, opened the refrigerator to look for something to cook up, and stared into barren land. When you have a very limited number of ingredients on hand and absolutely no idea what to do with them (which, incidentally, is a regular occurrence for many), the Cook4Lyfer comes as life saver. It allows you to search for recipes made of the limited ingredients you have in your kitchen. Just fill in your customized inventory and VOILA! -€“ you have a nice little recipe staring at you from your smartphone’s screen. And if you have a mind to shop for certain recipe ingredients missing from your kitchen, you can create custom shopping lists and find the nearest grocery store in your area to shop for these ingredients.
