Looking for the best shopping/recipe app with an iMac interface

You Should See the Other Guy — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 07:13:06 -0800

I love the iPhone app GroceryZen, which is a shopping checklist app with a built in recipe thingy. However, I'm tired of waiting for them to make my recipes editable on my iMac. Are there any apps I can use that function similarly that have, right now, this feature? Or, conversely, any good cooking apps for the iMac that have an iPhone app add on? Basically, I want an interface on the iMac that lets me enter ingredients and quantities that I can export to the iPhone and then when out click a button ("I want to make this tonight!") that adds all the ingredients to my shopping list.

What's the simplest, cheapest yet most complete diet available?

What's the simplest, cheapest yet most complete diet available? Being the creative type I tend to exhaust my energies working on projects leaving little time to prepare food, and little money to afford it. I often end up eating junk because it's more convenient, but it adds up. So I wanna break the habit, but I can't be doing with buying masses of ingredients that I might only use once to make one dish.

I read "Passport to Survival", which says you could get by on Wheat, Honey, Salt & Powdered Milk alone. I like the idea of that, but I think I could afford to get a few extra ingredients...

Go hive mind, go!
