PantryToCook turns the ingredients you already have into meals you can actually make right now — no shopping trip, no scrolling endless recipe feeds. WHAT IT DOES • Tell it what's in your kitchen: tap the staples and ingredients you have on hand. • See what you can cook right now: a deterministic match engine checks every recipe against your pantry and lists the ones you can make with zero missing ingredients. • Full cooking steps: open any recipe for numbered, step-by-step instructions, cook time, servings, and a have/need ingredient checklist. • Estimated macros: every recipe shows Est. calories, protein, carbs and fat per serving so you can eat with intent. These are estimates (Est.), not lab values. • Dinner reminder: an optional daily nudge tells you what you can cook tonight from what's already in your kitchen. EVERYTHING ON YOUR DEVICE Your pantry stays on your phone. No account to create, nothing to hand over. ABOUT THE MACROS Macros are estimates derived from published per-ingredient reference values (USDA FoodData Central), shown for general guidance and labelled "Est." throughout the app. They are not a substitute for professional medical or dietary advice; consult your doctor or a registered dietitian before making any medical or dietary decisions. HONEST BY DESIGN Cooking from what you already have is free. PantryToCook Plus is an optional auto-renewing subscription that unlocks near-miss recipes — the meals you're just one or two ingredients short of — each with the exact shopping list to finish them. Clearly priced, cancel anytime. Subscription: auto-renews unless canceled ≥24h before the period ends; payment charged to your Apple ID at confirmation; manage/cancel in App Store settings.
