What the heck! Still fun to find interesting recipes though, apart from the way too simple, extremely boring usual recipes like pancakes, roasted sweet potatoes, or yogurt parfait. Yes, a yogurt parfait. No, you do not make the yogurt from scratch. Unbelievable ! ### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed *2022-05-09, version 3.2.6* If you want to start cooking and don’t know what to cook. This is the perfect place for inspiration. Came here from senpai Kai. Legend! ### 5/5 — Senpai Kai brought me here *2022-05-03, version 3.2.6* A recent short on YouTube from Senpai Kai called Basil Chicken Parmesan has brought me here because this app sounded very cool and I wanted to try it and I wasn’t disappointed at all if anyone sees this believe me you will not regret it ### 2/5 — Impossible to sync with fig *2022-03-15, version 3.2.1* I can’t connect with fig to update my profile to only show vegan recipes ### 3/5 — Good start *2022-03-13, version 3.2.0* I can’t figure out how to connect fig to my manna account. It’s an interesting idea though. Also, my main concern is calories and I don’t see any options to select for that. Fig didn’t leave much space for that either, I could only select to leave out high calorie ingredients, like oil. But there’s a lot of different oils and you have to choose each one. I tend to select a whole food plant based diet, as that eliminates oil usually, and that allows for a high volume low calorie approach. Changes in that direction would be awesome! ### 2/5 — Dietary restrictions dont do anything *2022-02-09, version 3.1.8* Unfortunately setting my dietary restrictions does not change what recipes show up. I’ve set it to vegetarian and lots of meat dishes continue to pop up. I like the idea of this app but this kind of ruins it. ### 5/5 — Best app ever *2022-02-07, version 3.1.7* I’m new to cooking, but this app makes everything so simple and easy to follow. I would highly recommend this great app to anyone. ### 5/5 — Incredibly well thought out *2022-02-01, version 3.1.7* This is one of the best looking apps I’ve seen. It’s super easy to use, looks fantastic, and has a ton of recipes. Hats off to you! ### 5/5 — Man…I just love Manna! *2022-01-28, version 3.1.7* I can now remember dishes I liked and not just “like” a picture on Instagram 😂. Being able to track all my recipes and compile that into my very own cookbook is genius! A food app that was made for me ❤️ 🥩 ### 5/5 — Makes cooking enjoyable again! *2022-01-20, version 3.1.6* I love that I can discover new and exciting recipes in seconds! ## Frequently asked questions about Manna Cooking ### What does Manna Cooking do?
