I totally love the idea behind this though many of the recipes don’t work well for our family Between the two of us we have quite a few things we don’t like/won’t eat. We aren’t the healthiest eaters in the world but we do make an attempt. It’s great that you can select the food you don’t like so that you won’t be given a recipe that isn’t suitable for you.
The voice activation in genius! I wondered how I was going to be able to use this in the kitchen without ruining it because I tend to make a huge mess when I cook. Another feature that I thought was fun was the virtual kitchen. It takes awhile to get the hang of but it’s a good idea to use it to walk you through a recipe before you actually test in out in reality so you know what to expect.
My Healthy Cooking Coach will help keep us on the right track for healthy eating!
