    Hello HN, My girlfriend and I waste too much energy to decide what to eat. Every day, we would text each other, "what do we eat tonight" messages, and go over options and many times spend too much time on deciding. I am an indie dev and created this app to solve my own problem: decide with my girlfriend what to eat for dinner. Initially, I created a simple app, in which we listed all the recipes we ever prepared, and it would propose randomly three of them. We would then choose together one of them. This app[0] turned into a tinder-like app, which would propose every day a set of recipes to…

    Hi HN! Me and my gf both love cooking, but for some reason cooking together always becomes a frustrating mess for both of us. When talking with friends about this, we discovered that many share this experience. What seems like a romantic date night opportunity always results in a more challenging dynamic than we'd all like. So we decided to build an app that turns any recipe we upload into 2-player mode. For us the app massively improves the cooking together experience by removing coordination friction. It basically allows each individual to focus on their own tasks: one cuts the onions, the…

    TLDR; I applied the concept of "don't make me think" to the task of selecting meals, and assembling the shopping list for your grocery run. The basic idea for what I wanted is very simple: Rather than making a shopping list, I wanted to create a re-usable 'meal', with a list of ingredients I'd need to add to my shopping list to make that meal. Then, after selecting meals for the week I'd have a quick 'check' step, where I'm prompted to check the cupboard for each ingredient, before it's added to the shopping list (ie: I'll need ground beef to make tacos, but I already HAVE ground beef in the…
