SuperCook is Super Indeed

This is a shameless plug, as I am now obsessed with this website. OMG. It is amazing. See, the reason that I don't spend hours looking for and trying new recipes from online is because I always get so frustrated within the first 15 minutes. I find a recipe that looks decent and has good reviews....oh wait, I don't have lemon juice. I find another recipe that looks decent and has good reviews....oh wait, I don't have buttermilk. I find another recipe that looks decent and has good reviews....oh wait, I don't have freaking tomatoes....or onions....or sour cream....or....

You get the idea. And then I give up and eat instant mashed potatoes or leftover pizza (ordered the last time I couldn't find a recipe to try) for dinner and invariably feel oh-so-unsatisfied afterwards. But no more! Yesterday I made fancy cookies, thanks to SuperCook. Tonight I made Baked Paprika-Parmesan Chicken, all thanks to SuperCook. Wow!

And thanks to my nifty-difty boyfriend, I have a screen-shot for your touring pleasure!

Notice:
(A) the list of ingredients currently available....this is super-easy to update
(B) that you can highlight a particular ingredient that you want to use
(C) I can choose from 70 possible chicken entrees that I have the ingredients to make
(D) it recommends ingredients to acquire to increase the number of potential recipes
(E) the section tabs: entrees, starters, desserts

Features that hopefully SuperCook will one day acquire:
(A) an option to specify how much/many of particular ingredients you have. For example, I only have 2 bananas, but most recipes call for at least 3.
(B) better section tabs....i.e.-side dishes

But I'm not complaining....oh, no. I wouldn't complain about SuperCook. Not after all that SuperCook has done for me!
