Real Results

Frequently asked questions

Recipe sites search existing databases—you still have to filter, read life stories, and realize you're missing 3 ingredients. DinnerInSeconds creates a custom recipe specifically for what you have right now, with realistic times and your family's preferences built in. One recipe. No scrolling.
Yes! Every recipe uses chef-tested flavor combinations that actually work together—not random ingredient matching. And community ratings help us continuously improve.
Nope! Just tell us your main ingredient and we'll assume you have the basics (salt, oil, common spices). No tedious scanning required. You can customize your staples list once, and we'll remember.
The average family wastes $2,913/year on unused groceries and spends $200+/month on unplanned takeout. By using what you have and avoiding the "I don't know what to make" takeout trap, most families will save $200/month in reduced takeout costs and grocery waste.
No problem! Just list any additional ingredients you want to include, and we'll craft a recipe that highlights them. It's a great way to use up those random veggies or that half-opened jar of sauce.
Definitely. Whether it's allergies, dislikes, or just that one ingredient you ran out of, just let us know what to avoid and we'll make sure your recipe is tailored to your preferences.
In order to provide quality recipes quickly, we may occasionally serve up cached recipes if your criteria match a recent request. This helps us keep wait times low while still delivering great meals. If you'd like a fresh recipe, just hit 'Try Another'!
Just tap "Try Another" and get a new recipe with the same constraints.
Each recipe is custom-generated using advanced AI, which has real costs. Free users get 5 recipes per day (plenty for planning meals), while Essentials subscribers get 30+ daily. This keeps the service sustainable while ensuring everyone gets high-quality, personalized recipes.
