Few people realize the value of the World Wide Web for such tasks. Anyone with Internet access literally has the world of food at his or her fingertips. Sophisticated search engines at many web sites are a great tool for weeding through thousands of recipes. Just think, all you have to do is type in the ingredients you have on hand, say chicken and rice, and the engine does all the work. Now all you need to do is choose among the tempting recipes that match your search.
Some sites offer categorized lists of recipes.
There are hundreds of web sites concerning food, recipes and dining. May I suggest these three sites who's easy to use interface and copious amounts of information should put you right on track. These sites run the gamut including recipes from the simple to the sublime. For the serious cook, the Recipe File at Epicurious should be just the ticket. This configurable search engine lets you filter through over five-thousand recipes from Bon Appetit , Gourmet and House and Garden magazines.
