Love Your Leftovers 1.2

How many times have you cooked something, but was disappointed to find that you have plenty of leftovers but weren’t in the mood to eat the same thing twice? How many times were you left with some mushrooms you didn’t get to add to the mix, or some grilled chicken no one wanted?

Before you throw it all away, however, it’s best to consider just what else you can do with everything you have in your fridge and pantry to minimize waste. Perhaps turning things into another delicious meal is the answer, and that’s exactly what the folks over at Love Your Leftovers are trying to prove.

Deal with the leftovers

The app seeks to help you out in dealing with those leftovers, be those fruits, vegetables, meat, pasta, rice or cake. In order to do this, it serves everything in a really nice package, with a cute design and an easily-navigable interface.

There are several areas to the app where you can find content. For instance, you may check out the “Recipes” area where you’ll notice several categories, depending on the type food you have left in your fridge and pantry. After picking out any of these, you can check out the list of recipes in alphabetic order.

All recipes come with a full list of ingredients and a step-by-step method so you’ll find these pretty easy to follow, even if you’re not exactly a master chef in the kitchen. There are some handy hints at the end that you should check out and even user ratings to help you establish just what others thought about the recipe.

The only way to add a dish to the Favorites list is by going back to the recipe list and tap the heart icon there since there is no such button inside the actual recipe.

Search by ingredients

Tapping on the "Leftovers?" button in the middle of the bottom ribbon will give you a way to not only browse all the recipes, but also to search by the leftover ingredient you have at your disposal. The app provides some popular leftovers, which you can add to the mix or you can add your own. It’s possible to add more than one ingredient to narrow down results.

In the Info Bites section of the app you’ll find a lot of information that you should find useful, such as how to more efficiently plan your meals, how to serve food, and how to store it, as well as how to handle waste. There’s also a page to help you out with converting dry ingredients, as well as liquids, and oven temperatures.
