Deglaze: Cooking, Simplified 12+

Y’all! This app is truly AMAZING!!!! I have never wrote a review for an app but I had to for this! I have had tons of videos saved from social media for recipes for years. But honestly have I done anything with them, no, hardly ever. The task of scrolling to find the right video, writing down the recipe, and cooking instructions is a nightmare! Then looking up recipes online can be a pain and not to mention the annoying adds! Uhh! This app has truly saved me so much time and effort! I love cooking and trying new recipes ideas and this makes it an amazing experience! I’ve even save natural home remedy recipes as well has homemade beauty product recipes and cleaning solution recipes. You can edit the original recipe you imported if you want to, you have easy link access to the original post from social media. You can create your own tags for easy filtering. And the shopping list!! Oh my goodness the shopping list is so convenient and a total game changer! Scroll through and simply add the meals you want to make for the week to your shopping list and BOOM. It’s even categorize by meat, produce, bakery, etc. I wish I knew about this app way sooner!!!!

The grocery list feature alone has change my life. It Quickly imports groceries straight from your recipe, organizes them by grocery aisle, and easily allows to you to delete things you already have (thereby saving you $ and minimizing food waste), and you can add things not listed so all your grocery needs are in one place! Did I mention you can also share your account with others in your household (so they can do to grocery shopping!)

For someone who likes (not loves) to cook this app makes cooking new recipes SO easy and fun. I love how it takes recipes from online with terrible formatting and IN SECONDS gives you all your groceries and your recipe steps in simple, beautiful, user friendly steps, WITH built in timers. It just makes recipes seem so easy and doable.
AND when you’re cooking, the app stays open so you’re not constantly having to unlock your phone with food all over your hands- these people have thought of everything.

I used to make a recipe I found on the internet by copying all the ingredients to a checklist and then scrolling up and down to see how much of what to add when. Later when I wanted to make that same recipe I’d have to sift through the hundred different individuals making the same recipe to find the one I liked. With Deglaze I import the recipe once and everything is done for you. It lets you add all of the ingredients to a shared shopping list with your family, flip seamlessly between ingredients and recipe instructions and even supports timers. All of my recipes are stored in Deglaze and you can even search your recipes by ingredient when you find you have too much eggplant and no idea what to do with it. I also find the feed of what others have cooked to be inspiring. I have found many great recipes from the other users on Deglaze. Overall it’s a very helpful app for going from recipe to dinner!
