Recently I had the opportunity to download and try the iFood Assistant App. Basically the iFood Assistant provides an extensive database of over 7,000 tested recipes, snack options, shopping lists, grocery store and aisle locators in one easy-to-use application. Since my phone has become my one stop organizational tool, I was excited to try out this app.
There are several categories of recipes including a “budget wise” section. With coupon match ups the recipes in the budget category could end up costing you pennies a serving.
The recipe database was huge and I love the fact that I could type in up to three ingredients and find a recipe using those ingredients. Last week I had stuffing, bbq sauce, and pineapple in my pantry and using the iFood Assistant I found a yummy meatball recipe. What a great tool for using up food in your pantry or fridge.
With the app, you can create shopping lists, menus and organize all your weekly menu planning. It is definitely a handy tool for those who like to be organized in the meal planning department.
Kraft would like you to try the iFood Assistant for yourself, so they gave me a $50 American Express gift card and a $25 iTunes gift card to give to you. The app only costs $0.99, so that is a whole lot of iTunes fun you can have with the other $24.01. One winner / two prizes.
To enter the contest leave me a comment. Contest ends Friday, January 29th.
Disclosure: Kraft provided me with gift cards to cover the cost of food and downloading the app. However, my opinions are entirely my own and I have not been paid to publish positive sentiments towards iFood Assistant or other Kraft Foods mobile offerings.
The app and the gift card sound great! Thanks for the giveaway!
Just the app for meal-planning-block, thanks!
I’d sure love to try that!
I would LOVE this app!!! Thanks for offering the giveaway!!!
very cool app..I’d like to try it.
I agree Patty! I felt like getting my iphone was like learning a foreign language! My kids know how to work it better then I do!

So cool! I could definitely use something like that.
Sounds good to me!
I love food and music and iTunes….this is perfect!
main entry: This is a great tool, I like the way you can search for gorcerie stores as you travel which we do alot in the summer months in our motorhome and it would be convienent to know where certain grocers are to easily find them plus it even tells you certain speacials that that store maybe carring at the time, thank you.

Sounds like just the thing to convince me to activate the iphone sitting in my closet…
This sounds really great! I saw a thing that looked like an iPhone but was only for recipes advertized at Christmas but it was hundreds of dollars! This one sounds like a great deal. So glad I got a Smart Phone for Christmas! And yes, getting to know it has been like learning another language and I am definitely NOT fluent yet LOL.
I like this idea. What a great way to use those orphaned ingredients!
Anything that helps with meal time is great in my eyes!
Thanks for the chance to win.

I love my Iphone and always looking for new apps to help out with daily life. This app is one I have been looking for. There are days when I stare at the pantry and just have no clue or I just don’t want the same thing.
I do hope I win, need some more tunes to walk too.
Great giveaway! I love all the apps in Itunes & would love to check this one out too!
This looks like a very useful app!
What a fun idea! My sister-in-law loves this app. Wouldn’t I impress her if I had it, too
That sounds awesome! Might make finding food alternatives for my allergy kiddo much easier!
I don’t even have an ipod yet, but we “earned” one with points on our credit card. Thanks for offering the giveaway!
Sounds like a great app… I haven’t heard of that one, but have lots of others! Would love to try this one out! My fave “kitchen” APP is the AllRecipes… It’s a good one!
My husband just found an app like that for my Blackberry. He is going to download a free trial for me when he gets home. I can’t wait to try it. Maybe it will help prevent some of those odd mismatched meals when I find out at the last minute I thought I had something to ‘go with’ the chicken and had to choose between french fries or pork and beans. Does this app work on Blackberry?

I think I am going to have to borrow my teenage son’s iPod Touch!
Thanks for all that you post . . .
Oh man, that app looks awesome. I have several things in my pantry that make me thing “What was I thinking when I bought that?” Those meatballs look good and my immediate reaction was “I think I have that in my pantry!” Thanks for sharing.
sounds like a great app! thanks Kraft & HH for the opportunity
A mobile cookbook? I love it!
how do you feel about cooking with your iphone in the kitchen? i always worry about getting food gunk or worse liquids on it
Looks like a great App. Thanks for the opportunity to win.
I love tools like this that can help me plan meals. This is not my forte.
I have this app on my iphone and it is wonderful. I use it all the time when I am looking for recipes.
Sounds like a fun app to try…and perfect for using up random groceries during the pantry challenge

Great idea for when you don’t have any more brain capacity but still need to make dinner!
