Stashcook: Recipe Keeper

I’ve been using this app for a few weeks now. I’m extremely pleased with the interface and the ability to easily add, edit and organize my recipes and collections. My absolute favorite feature is the ability to update a recipe based on number of servings. It has totally changed the way I cook. Not only can I plan for meals, but if I’m in a rush, I can pick a recipe (sorted by cook time!) and have a meal ready in 30 minutes or less - and no more wasted leftovers that absolutely no-one eats! Two things I’d like to see updated. 1) add the ability to sort by favorites (I want to pull up my 5-star recipes first!) and 2) add the ability to transfer my shopping list items to other apps. I will give this app 6 stars if you can make it happen. Truly no complaints. This app is a serious upgrade to how I used to manage my recipes. Highlighting, copying and pasting from websites or digging through cookbooks is an in-sane process to me now. Now I just have one place I go to quickly add or find a recipe, check my ingredients and I’m cooking, literally. I also love that the app overrides my phone auto-sleep feature to stay open while I cook. Yet another reason for the five-star rating. Great job, StashCook!

I honestly had my doubts about this app when I first got it. And I personally don’t really write reviews so I think it’s safe to say this app blew my mind. I get all my meal prep recipes off Instagram, I used to save them right on instagram along with everything else I found interesting, so needless to say all my recipes got lost immediately. With this app, all my stuff is in one spot, and the fact that there are step by step instructions? AMAZING. I’m so thankful that feature is included in the free version, I don’t have the money for premium personally but if you’re able to shell out the money I would recommend it. You can track your macros which will only help you with your weight goals. Overall 10/10 app, I’m so thankful, I’m actually making the viral meals I see online and developing a more diverse personal menu. Thank you!!

I do love this app! A couple things keep shifting - it seems like there’s been only one release where the “send to Stashcook” and “stash from a copied URL” feature both worked (although Send often crashed, so I’m happy to have the Copied URL stash feature back). And, the latest release doesn’t remember your prior sort from the Home Screen - which I’m sad about because it was my way of coping with crashes from the Send feature. I have one main feature wish, though, that I hope is on the back burner: the ability to print or PDF recipes, especially (but not only) personal recipes. I put a bunch in here only then threw out the paper, and I’m having some regrets on that. It’s much nicer to know a family recipe is safe in print if something ever happens to me, you know?
