Is there a website where I can check off what I have in my kitchen and it generates a recipe?

Question

Like, tonight I want to make risotto and I have watercress, lemons, mushrooms, etc.

Anyone know of anything like that?

Answer 1

The two sources below are great for just what you're looking for.

Was chatting with friends the other night at a little Irish pub in Chicago when this great idea came up. One of them has a little menu that she has made up for her kitchen. It's a listing of ten recipes that she can do without even having to look at a cook book. She's created names for them and a brief description.

So when a friend comes over and suddenly it's dinner -- she has the menu, all the ingredients in her fridge or cupboards and can do it from memory (cook times, sauces, oven temp, etc.).

I thought this was pretty cool!

I like bonappetit.com's feature "advanced search"--it really helps to find a recipe you can make with ingredients at hand. I use it a lot.
