Personalized recipes from AI

Lean on AI-powered tools to recommend personalized recipes based on your preferences, preferred flavors, and dietary restrictions. Whether you’re looking to use ingredients before they expire or trying to accommodate specific guests at your dinner party, here are two ways to ask AI to suggest the best recipe for you:

  • Generate ingredient-specific recipes. If you have food in your fridge that’s about to expire or flour that’s been sitting in your pantry unused, ask for recipes that incorporate ingredients you already have.
  • Request diet-specific baking ideas. If you have dietary restrictions, ask for recipes that meet your needs and provide allergy-friendly alternatives to traditional ingredients.
