RecipeBox Online Recipe Creation Tool

Good news!

RecipeBox now has a online recipe creation tool.

You can find it here

Please note that it is a simple first step, and there are better things to come. That said, this should make entering recipes much easier.

The interface is straight forward and should be intuitive to use, but here is a quick walkthrough:

Enter the name of the recipe in the "Recipe Name" box and the description in the "Description" in the description box.

To add ingredients, click the "Add Ingredient" button. This will create a new ingredient item. The left input is where you enter the amount, the right input is where you enter the name of the ingredient. To delete an ingredient, just click the "X".

Adding instructions is much the same.

Once your recipe is entered, click "Done". This will create a file that you can download to your computer. The file is a zip file named based on the name of the recipe you are creating. Save this file when prompted, attach the file to an email, and send the email to an account you can open from your phone.

From the email application on your phone, open the attachment and RecipeBox should recognize the file and load it.

Initially we were hoping to handle the emailing step for you, but as we currently do not require a login of any kind, we didn't want our app used to spam people.

Anyway, please try it out and let us know what you think!
