Which app tells me what to cook based on what I have?

Several apps offer ingredient-based recipe suggestions, but they work in fundamentally different ways. Apps like SuperCook use a simple database lookup — you enter what you have and it finds matching recipes. Apps like Eatvora maintain a persistent pantry inventory and use AI to generate personalised recipes dynamically from your specific stock.

The persistent inventory approach is more powerful because it requires no effort at the time of cooking — your pantry is always current, and suggestions are always based on what you actually have right now. The session-based approach (SuperCook) requires re-entering your ingredients each time.

Eatvora takes this further by prioritising expiring items in its recipe suggestions. If you have chicken that expires tomorrow and broccoli expiring in two days, Eatvora's AI will surface recipes that use both as primary ingredients — turning the expiration alert into an immediate, actionable suggestion.

The free tier of Eatvora includes 3 AI recipe generations per day from your pantry inventory. SuperCook is entirely free but requires manual ingredient entry each session and does not track expiration dates.
