yummly app

Have you ever used the app yummly? If not, then you are really missing out. the image above is a screen capture of my current home screen of the yummly app on my phone. I’ve tried a lot of meal planning apps and I have to say that yummly has become by far my favorite.

Here is how it works:

1. You sign up and create an account.

2. Then you customize the kinds of meals you would like recipes for. This includes specifying if all of your recipes need to be gluten free, dairy free, nut free, not have read meat etc. You can choose anything you want to exclude for any reason. So for example, if you don’t like cucumbers then you can ask for recipes that do not include these. From then on the only recipes that appear are those that fit what you have asked for. You can also search for recipes by ingredient. For example, broccoli or avocado.

3. Then you can start looking at recipes. For each recipe it tells you the serving size, the number of ingredients, the number of calories, how long it will take to prepare that recipe and it has a rating with reviews from people who have cooked that recipe.

4. You can organize your recipes by lists. Add favorites. Share the recipes you find via email and on your social networks and more. You can also add the ingredients for a particular recipe to a shopping list that you can then take to the store, or in some areas you can even order the products for home delivery. (Unfortunately this feature of the yummly app is not yet available in my area so I haven’t tried that part.)

I really like this app a lot. There is a wide variety of recipes and I’ve found all kinds of healthy and delicious recipes. If I’m trying to come up with something for dinner and don’t know what to cook, I can open up yummly and can also find something quick, easy and delicious. You can also search for recipes by category, drinks, sides, breakfasts, desserts, dinners etc.
