About CookToday: Pantry Recipes
What can I cook tonight? CookToday answers with recipes you can actually make — from the ingredients you already have. Snap a photo of your fridge or pick from your pantry. CookToday recognizes your ingredients on-device and shows real match scores: which recipes you can cook right now, and exactly what's missing. Missing items go to your shopping list with one tap. YOUR RULES ARE LAW Allergies and diets are strict filters, not suggestions. A recipe that conflicts with your allergy is never shown — not even by the AI chef. WORKS OFFLINE, NO ACCOUNT 4,400+ recipes across 13 cuisines live on your phone. Discovery, pantry, matching, and cooking mode all work without internet. No sign-up, no tracking, no ads.
