SuperCook.com - Will Tell You What's For Dinner

What’s for dinner? Simple question, but surprisingly, often difficult to answer. If you’re the frugal type or merely lazy and out of ideas, something like SuperCook could be right up your alley. Essentially, SuperCook is a recipe search engine. How it works: you type in the ingredients you have on hand lying around the kitchen into the My Kitchen section—more ingredients are obviously better; SuperCook will then cook something up for you via its digital algorithms and you’ll have a nice little, tasty recipe ready in minutes. Of course, some of the recipes will require you to make a stop at your local grocery store—but the majority work with whatever you have in the cupboards; also SuperCook lists those need to be bought ingredients clearly, so you don’t have to sift through ten or twenty recipes to find the right one. Results can be filtered by starters, entrees, and desserts too.

 
  In their own words  

“Supercook is a new recipe search engine that finds recipes you can make with the ingredients you have at home. To begin, simply start adding ingredients you have. The more ingredients you add, the better the results will be.”

  Why it might be a killer  

What’s nice about SuperCook is that it actually counts the number of dishes you can make and it tells you what you’ll need right from the start. Other recipe search engines fail to advise you of this. SuperCook has a fresh, uncluttered interface. Common ingredients are auto-filled for you. The site also has a wide range of features besides its search engine—a community, the ability to add notes and send to your cell phone, nutritional info, menus, etc.

  Some questions  

Can users import recipes? Does SuperCook actually come up with viable recipes? Does it offer substitutions?

Nope, It was a cookie error. After cleaning cookies, and starting all over again, SuperCook did work fine.

Unlike supercook, ezEating.net showed full page of results that can be narrowed down by types of cuisines.

I entered 28 ingredients 'water salt pepper sugar flour onion oil butter garlic nutella bread apple orange banana zucchini zuchinni rice tomato potato vegetable paprika soy milk olive seasoning oregano peas butter', and got zero recipes that I could cook! Note that salt, pepper, sugar and water are included by default. I then tried the same ingredients in ezEating.net

This idea is great; I would definitely use it. Not only does it solve the immediate problem of what's for supper, but also addresses the repetitive menu.
