If you've ever dreaded this question, you need BigOven for Windows.
BigOven makes it a breeze to quickly enter your favorite rotation of recipes, and it will help you discover many more delicious recipes you'll want to try.
Use BigOven's easy Find button to find the recipes you want. Then drag the ones you want from the list on the left to one of the task areas on the right (e.g., shopping list, meal planning).
For instance, to add a recipe's ingredients to your grocery list, simply grab the recipe card and drop it onto the shopping list. That's it!
You can easily get to your favorite recipes, your "Try Soon" recipes, or any recipe you want from this screen, and results are shown on the left. You can search across individual or multiple recipe box files. Recipes can be resized (multiplied) up or down quickly, or converted from English (US) to Metric and vice-versa. Much more!
Want to generate a quick shopping list from your favorite recipes? Simply click on the Shopping icon, then drag and drop recipes from the result list onto your shopping list. BigOven will create a convenient printed grocery list, sorted by department. You can easily uncheck the items you already have on-hand before the list is generated, or at any time.
When you're ready to go grocery shopping, simply print it out, or publish it to your Palm or Windows Mobile device. Your grocery list is ordered by aisle... so no more back-tracking through the store! Our own tests have shown that this feature alone can save more than 15 minutes off the typical grocery run, which adds up!
You can also generate grocery lists by selecting a date range in the meal planner.
Drag and drop recipes from the search results right onto the meal calendar. Add notes to any day. When you're done, you can generate a shopping list from any date range, and print out your meal plan.
