Unless you’re Nigella Lawsone or Jaimie Oliver, almost everyone could use a little help in the kitchen, especially when it comes to inspiration for what to do with chicken, tomatoes and eggs. That’s why we decided to round up some of our favourite recipe apps. They’ll help make life in the kitchen that much easier and healthier.
The Hippie Lane
The Hippie Lane’s emphasis on great photography is what makes this app stand out from the pack.

The app also has useful shopping list and timer functions.
