About Leftovers: Cook What You Have
You open the fridge, stare at it, and close it. "There's nothing to make." There almost always is.
Leftovers answers one question: what's for dinner from what we already have? Point your phone at your fridge, your groceries, or a food box. The app looks at what's there and shows you real dinner ideas you can cook tonight, from the ingredients you already have. No shopping trip first.
THE BASICS
Free. No ads. No signup. You don't give us your name, your email, or a password. Open the app and scan. If you'd rather not use the camera, type your items in instead.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Snap a photo of your fridge, your grocery haul, or your food box.
2. Tell the app about your kitchen once. It takes about 30 seconds, and you can skip it.
3. Pick a meal and cook it.
WHAT YOU GET
Real meals, not a wish list. The suggestions come from the food in your photo, so you can start cooking now instead of shopping first.
A food box scanner. If you picked up a box from a pantry or a food drive, scan the whole box and see the meals hiding inside it.
Your own cookbook. The meals you make get saved in the app, so the ones your family liked are easy to cook again.
English and Spanish. Switch languages anytime, right in the app.
YOUR PRIVACY
We don't ask for your name, email, phone number, or location. Diet notes and allergies stay on your phone. There are no ads and we don't sell personal information. The full policy is at grableftovers.com/privacy.
WHO IT'S FOR
Everybody eats. Leftovers is for students cooking in a first apartment, parents staring down a weeknight, seniors on a fixed budget, and anyone who's tired of good food going soft in the back of the fridge. Scanning what you have before you shop helps you stop wasting food and stretch your grocery money.
You have more than you think. Scan your fridge and see for yourself.
