The Recipe Finder- Great recipes at your fingertips

Recipe Finder

When you are out and about shopping at your supermarket, have you ever thought of cooking something a little bit different instead of chicken and chips, pasta, jacket potato, and the trusty frozen meal from a cardboard box? Cooking something different isn’t that hard, you might want the ingredients for peanut noodles with pork? Spicy Piri Piri Chicken? Or a Mediterranean Shepherd’s Pie? But you don’t know what to buy or what goes in it. Some meals only contain a few ingredients that set the flavour and texture, You could by the boring mother disappointing your kids, or the partner who has no imagination when at the hob, who also heads straight to the frozen meal section and picks out the next best thing, a standard shepherd’s pie for £1.00. This won’t do much for your reputation as a cook or host, or even your diets. And every woman loves a good cook, and every man likes a good meal.

So my idea is the Recipe Finder, the next time you are frantically rushing down the aisles picking out ready meals for 4 for a fiver its time you made it yourself. A PDA will be stacked on a rechargeable shelf inside entrance of the store, secure it onto the trolley handle and your ready to go. It will have a simple design interface with only the Recipe Finder application running.
You type two main key words like Chicken & noodles, leeks and ham, or Tuna and potato into the database, and instantly receive the ingredients for Warm potato and tuna salad, or Creamy Leeks with ham and corn, or a Mediterranean Chicken with aromatic noodles dish (these are just some examples)
Not only will it offer the standard recipe, but also give you the option of making a healthy meal with a low-fat option, or ingredients from the organic range. Making it more personal for each user.

Each item that is chosen for the recipe will have a small product packaging picture that pops up on the PDA screen, this gives the user a greater understanding of what the products look like as they walk down the aisles.
Many users will have allergies and reactions to certain products, normally before they purchase any product they look at the content of the item, users will have the possibility to make the interface show what is in each product before they purchase.

These sorts of recipes only need about 4-5 different ingredients, and take about 1 hour to cook. Not a long time for tantalising your taste buds with something different. and also it will calculate the total price of the recipe before you proceed to that checkout.

The satisfaction you will receive when you lay the dish out on the table with be amazing. Finally your family, partner, or friends will have a break from the norm, a healthy, stomach-filling meal cooked by yourself.

The user interaction will be with a PDA stylus and a simple on screen keyboard to type in the keywords, the remaining buttons on the PDA will act as navigation for the user, NEXT, BACK, QUIT, ENTER all these options will be available by the interaction with they keypad on the front.

Once the user has finished shopping, the PDA gets recharged and ready for the next User.
