What’s Cookin’ With Google?
This might not have much to do with entrepreneurship, but it’s a technological time saver so that makes it worth blogging about!
Anyone who regularly reads my blog knows I’m a huge fan of the Food Network and I absolutely love cooking. Unfortunately, my days are pretty busy now with a young family and a thriving business so I’m all for shortcuts whenever I can find them.
Since I’m pretty sure that if my husband were responsible for the cooking we would all die, I make 100% of our meals. And, I still like to prepare nutritious meals for my husband and daughters so I don’t like to have to rely too much on packaged foods.
That’s why I got pretty excited about this…
I got a ‘tweet’ through Twitter on the weekend which turned me on to a totally cool new Google thing called Cookin’ With Google. You type into the search bar the stuff you have in your fridge and in return you get a bunch of recipes based on what you have on hand.
Bookmark this site if you love to cook!
There are lots of recipe sites out there that allow you to search by ingredient but for those of us who are really lazy busy, this saves the steps involved with logging into the recipe site, finding the ingredient search, searching by course, blah blah blah. It’s instant. One step.
“When there aren’t enough hours in the day…” try Cookin’ With Google!

Oh man! I LOVE it! Thanks for sharing.
I cook 99.9% of the time here…it’s my therapy time.
