Cooking made easy

[danaeris]

I found this site and I'm in love. It may be confusing to use at times because it speaks Australian (this DOES make a difference, believe it or not).

But it has recipes categorized and marked by the following categories:
Budget
Cooking for 1 or 2
Cooking for a crowd
Diabetes Friendly
Easy
Entertaining
Freezer Friendly (i.e. you can freeze it and reheat it when you're ready to eat)
Gluten Free
Heart Friendly
Kid Friendly
Lactose Free
Low Carb
Low Fat
Low GI
Low kilojoule (see? Australian speak)
Vegetarian

Each recipe has a checkmark for each of the categories it fits into, so you can quickly scan a recipe category for recipes that match your other requirements.

Check it out.

So do I see more cooking in your future?

"low kilojoule" would be "low calorie", I expect.

Spot on.

Gentlemen, while I do deeply appreciate your gallant efforts to assist me with this obscure point of Australian vernacular, I was in fact already well aware of the meaning of kilojoule. I sought only to point out that their use of the language differs from ours, which could complicate the use of some recipes. Although many will know the meaning of kilojoule, many will not know the meaning of terms such as lavash or swede.

I dunno what a lavash is, but I know what a swede is.

Also, if they do their measurement in ml instead of tsp/tbsp/cups, that could also complicate things for some people.

IIRC, a lavash more or less a fat tortilla or a thin pita.

Also, I'll stop now. (:

*thinks* Oh, is NASA getting into recipes now? :)

According to wikipedia, a swede is a rutabaga. A little research goes a long way.

I was going to say that the use of weight rather than volume to measure dry goods could be a problem, though they seem to have taken care of that.
