Bites is an organiser for cooks. The key feature of Bites is the creation of relationships between ingredients used in recipes and ingredients kept in inventory, allowing automatic generation of a shopping list based on planned meals and items that are low in stock. The todo list includes phone to phone recipe sharing through XML files, and an online recipe book where everyone can share their favourite recipes.

Once you have installed Bites, start the application and you’ll see a first screen with the main items: Inventory, Recipes, Meal Planner and Shopping list. On the Inventory screen, you can check all ingredients currently in your inventory and you can also click on Insert to add a new ingredient. Recipes shows the current recipes, and by clicking on Insert you can add another recipe. Click on Method to expand the list of method steps to prepare the meal. Keep on clicking on Add Method Step until your recipe is complete. Clicking on Add Ingredient takes you to the inventory page.

With the Meal Planner, you can calculate how much of the ingredients you need for a particular number of guests. On the Shopping List you can tick off items that are in your trolley. When you’re finished shopping hit the button Finish Shopping and all items will be ticked off and added to your inventory.
