As you all know from my site, I love cooking…..and I have recipes EVERYWHERE. Seriously, it’s a mess. When I heard about the DVO Cook’n Recipe Software I was intrigued. I mean, I’ve tried some programs before but none of them did what I wanted or were convenient for me, so I was curious to see how this one would work out for me.
My thoughts:
So there are many different programs that allow you to save recipes…but what makes Cook’n different? Well, the first thing that I found that was SO useful is the recipe capture! You can actually capture an online recipe and it formats into a recipe in your cookbook. It saves so much time! I search for recipes all the time and bookmark away, but I forget about them or lose them. If I capture the recipe and put them in my personal recipe book, I won’t lose them and can easily find them by side dish, main dish or whatever. It is so much easier! I can still type out my favorite recipes that I have written down on index cards all over the place and have them in one place.
Another neat idea is, each recipe can have it’s own template…so a recipe for kids stuff can look kid-like or whatever. I think it’s a great idea to make the book more fun! Ooh, did I mention that? You can PRINT out your book! What a cool gift to give! You could make a book of all of your family’s secret recipes.

I’m most excited about “Capture and Save Internet Recipes” ヅ *Thanks* for the giveaway!
I like that you can enter your own recipes and get the nutritional values of your meals.
I like the auto type feature. So much less work!!
i love the fact you can use you own recipes and have the nutritional values calculated instead of my having to just guess or estimate them.
