 Difficult to Use October 29, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I consider myself pretty techie but this software is hard to use. I see a recipe I'd like to add to my menu plan and I have to go out of the cookbook and back into the menu plan and add it. I'm not expecting drag and drop (although how cool would that be?) but tedious to build a plan. Then menu plan vs. meal plan and confusing term swaps. It also wants to add ingredients in it's own way--making me tab through to add things the way I want (cheese in ounces vs. slices). Maybe I didn't study it enough but I've just been very challenged in using it so far. I'm sticking with my pencil and paper and xerox copies of recipes I like!
 Best Recipe Software Ever! October 15, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I absolutely love this software. It is very easy to use and gives complete information about each recipe. It has so many features. One of my favorites is the recipe import assistant. It makes getting recipes from emails and web pages so easy -- no typing required!! Plus you can take pictures and add them to each recipe as well as pictures of the step by step preparations. I highly recommend this product. I have used a previous version for years and this new version is even better.
It is not designed for Windows Vista but I am using it on my HP laptop with Windows Vista.
 Master Cook October 9, 2008
I had one of the original versions of Master Cook (3 1/2 floppy and no spell check). I found out that there were later versions and obtained the latest copy. I was able to upload the recipes to the newer version. A lengthy spell check process was started.
As I have time I have entered my recipes into Master Cook. There were several folders and boxes of recipes I had collected. Usually by the time I found the recipe I was looking for, the event had passed. With Master Cook, can do a quick search online and find the recipe.
Great Product! October 9, 2008

This was an excellent product, and a very reasonable price. It had everything I was looking for (i.e. ability to enter my own recipes, as well as it automatically calculated nutritional values for my recipes I entered; I was able to download pictures for each recipe; spell check; categorizing, etc).
