How many times have you gone to make that box of brownies only to realize that you forgot to account for
the eggs or cooking oil that are needed in addition to the ingredients in the brownie box? HINT: Create a
recipe for the brownies in your database and the next time you add the brownie recipe to your menu or
directly to your shopping list, you will make sure you have everything you need.
The Recipe Setup screen has a search button to allow you to limit the recipes that show up. Click SEARCH and enter "chicken" and then the list under "Select a Recipe" will only show you recipes that have the word "chicken" in the name or in the ingredients. Need to get more fancy? Enter "chicken and crock" to find your chicken recipes that use the crock pot! This feature is great for when you don't know what you want to cook, but you want to use the ingredients that you have in the house.
You can assign your recipes to categories. (Entrees, Casseroles, etc.) We will soon be enhancing the SEARCH to use the category to make it even more useful.
