Find recipes with what you have in your fridge

The AI agent built a recipe search engine: input what you have in your fridge, browse by category, and get dinner ideas that match your ingredients. Four prompts, a cozy little kitchen tool.

App for finding recipes created with Macaly AI Builder
AI Generation

1. Describe the idea and get a working product

One prompt. It created the app: search by ingredients, protein categories, vegetables, dairy, and pantry, with a results view featuring recipes you can actually cook tonight.

“Create a recipe search engine for me. I input the ingredients I have, like chicken and rice, and it suggests recipes I can prepare tonight. Categories for protein, vegetables, dairy, and pantry. Warm, paper-like design.”

Search

2. Smarter matches

Results are sorted by the fewest additional ingredients to buy, with missing ones highlighted in each recipe card.

“Sort results by the fewest additional ingredients I should buy and show the missing ones.”

SVG and Illustrations

3. Replace emojis with suitable icons

Every emoji was replaced with a carefully selected illustrated icon for each ingredient category: clean, scalable, and consistent with the design.

“Replace all emojis with beautifully illustrated icons for each ingredient category.”

4. Make it cozier

Cream background, gentle borders, rounded category chips, and friendly empty states. A kitchen tool that feels like home.

“Make it warm and cozy: cream background, gentle borders, and friendly empty states.”
