Increasing the Yummliness

I’ve been meaning to make a plug for this great recipe search engine I use: yummly.com.

It works like the usual recipe websites (my fav. being allrecipes.com, second fav.: epicurious) except that it draws from all of those websites and displays a clear list of recipes that you can choose from, with a list of the ingredients you will need if you choose that recipe.  If you decide you don’t want to use a particular ingredient because you don’t have it, just right click on that ingredient and you can discard it.  This will whittle down what could have been a HUGE list of thousands.  The less specific your search, the more recipes you’ll be offered but it’s a great way to start brainstorming a meal.  When you choose your recipe, there is also the option to choose how many servings you’d like to make and it will do all the lovely maths for you.  The units of measurement seem very accessible (i.e.: no sticks of butter or packets of yeast).   I haven't yet used the columns on the left as Jbird and I eat basically anything but if you have an allergy or a dietary requirement, even a taste preference, yummly is ready to help. This site is fabulous and can be easily forgiven its lack of pretty pictures.
