...where you can enter in ingredients that you've got in the kitchen, and from those ingredients a healthy recipe is born?

    I want to make the perfect _____ (lunch, dinner, etc)
    with __________ (ingredient - it's a drop down)
    ready in ___________ (time)

    Allrecipes.com has a search by ingredient function (both the ingredients you want and don't want). Can't say that all of them are healthy, but I love the function and going through the recipes!

    The allrecipes.com one is closest to what I'm looking for, I guess.

    It's just that I'm severely broke, but I have food. I am sick of eating the same things that I know how to cook. So I want to cook something new with out having to buy anything (or buy very little) at the grocery store.

    Supercook.com

    You tell it all the ingredients you have in your house and it scans several recipe websites for recipes you can make with just those ingredients or just those plus one or two others. The recipes aren't guaranteed healthy though, you need to be the judge of that, but it is a great tool to figure out some new recipes with what you have :)

    That's a pretty cool site. I like that when you open a recipe that it comes up with, it takes you to allrecipes.com, where you can adjust the serving sizes and not have to guess how to make something for one person instead of four!

    Thanks so much!

    I like Allrecipe as well and I think it even creates a nutritional value chart next to each recipe.
