Sound familiar?
You save recipes you never make.
You rotate the same five meals. Your kids are over it. So are you.
By 4pm you're exhausted, and dinner hasn't even started.

Why I built this

Here's the truth. I built this for me.

I'm a single mom, a trained chef, and the only person in my house who ever decides what we're eating. One day I just got tired of it.

Not the cooking, I actually love cooking. It was the deciding.

Every single day, alone, staring into the fridge at 5pm with no one to bounce ideas off of.

I thought, if someone would just tell me what to cook, I would cook it.

So I built the thing I needed. Then I thought, I can't be the only one. If you're the default dinner maker in your house, this is for you. I made it for both of us.
