In the mood to cook, but don't know what to make? What's Cookin' is an application which allows users to access a recipe repository. Users can search recipes based on name or type of meal, and add those recipes either to a list of favorites or to a list of recipes to cook.
This application was created by Nikki Balmoori, Rachel Hill and Oakley Windiate during our second module of the Front-End Engineering program at Turing School of Software & Design. The spec for this project can be found here.

- Search your favorite recipes for a particular one you are looking to cook.
- In addition to favoriting recipes, you can also add recipes to cook using the plus button next to the favorite heart button.
