Do you often wonder what shall we have for dinner tonight? Always end up cooking the same recipes? Be surprised by Left2Cook. The app will surprise you by the number of recipes you can cook with the things you already have; talk about convenience and "Think Different". The ingredients in your kitchen will determine the recipe and not the other way around.
Inspired by the Italian cook, Giuseppe Semprevivo from Sicily, we developed a lot of recipes with few ingredients and a lot of taste. It’s not a coincidence, as around the Mediterranean you can find many tasteful dishes prepared with a minimum of ingredients.
Fresh ingredients will guarantee a healthy meal. Completed with many recipes from all around the world Left2Cook will make cooking like traveling around the world.
