Cooking Planit and Formaggio Cheese Recipe Challenge

Raise your hand if you'd like some extra help in the kitchen?  Is your hand raised?  Mine is!  If your hand isn't raised, what's your secret?  I think most of us could use a hand in the kitchen sometimes...

One of the biggest struggles I have (besides my dislike of doing dishes) is getting all my food prepared and done at the same time.  Do you ever have the side dishes all ready but the rolls or the meat isn't quite done, and so there you sit, waiting while everything else is getting cold?  What a pain!  Well, that's where Cooking Planit comes in!  This life-changing app can help you fix that!

Let's explore the app a little bit, shall we?  You can choose a recipe that you want to make and the app basically walks you through everything you need.  There is a clear and concise list of ingredients and equipment needed for the recipe.  Then you have all the instructions with helpful graphics.  You can use the app to plan you meals (one of my favorite features!), make a grocery list, and save your favorite recipes to a cookbook.

Another fantastic feature is the meal schedule.  You can select what meals to make and when to make them.  Then a timer goes off to remind you when to start meal prep.  Seriously!  It's almost like having your own chef!  Once you start preparing your meal, the app continues to help you with timing so that everything is done at the same time and you can enjoy your entire meal hot.

You can download this app on your iPhone or Android device for a small fee.  Trust me, it's worth the price!


Cooking Planit has teamed up with Formaggio Cheese to bring you the "Cooking Planit Formaggio Cheese Challenge".  It's a recipe challenge where you can create and submit a cheese-centric recipe into the contest.  The contest runs from June 9-19 and I'll share more details in an upcoming post.  For now though, start thinking about what recipe you would like to make and submit.  And now, help me choose what recipe you'd like me to make!

These recipes feature Formaggio cheese.  Take a look at the recipes I've selected and then vote in the poll below or in the comments for the recipe you'd like me to create.  (Pictures courtesy of Cooking Planit.)  Then check back next week for my recipe and your chance to win!
