My new best friend!!


I just I have to blog about this because it is AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING! It is called Shop'nCook Menu, there is also one called Shop'nCook Home that doesn't allow you to menu plan but I prefer the Menu one. you can go to this site and download a free trial period of 45 days! anyways now I will get to why it is my new best friend.

You can type your recipes into the program or copy and paste a recipe from the net, you click ok and it sorts everything out into a form where you can either see the recipe (which you can attach a picture to) or you can view the ingredients, if you type in how many servings it makes it will add up all of the nutrition facts. all of these recipes are stored for use or reference at any time.

Menu!
you can plan your menu for every day of the month, or year if you want, then you can save your monthly menus to refer to in the menu library.

Did some one say grocery list??
when you add something to your menu it adds all of the ingredients to your shopping list and tells you exactly how much of each item you need for your combined recipes as well as what recipes the item is used for, it is all divided into different sections in the grocery store. You can go through and uncheck items you already have and it makes them light Grey instead of black. you can also add dishes to your shopping list without putting it into the menu.

Printable menu!
on top of everything you can select print the menu for the week/month and a menu will be printed for you to place on your fridge!

There is a lot of other features to this but I just thought I would share my excitement!! go check it out and let me know how you like it!!
