We took the liberty to preselect three collections for you: ’Cooked’, ’Want to cook’, and ’Recently deleted’, which cannot be deleted. But besides those, you can create and delete your own collections.
On top of the 3 preselected collections, you can create 7 other personal recipe collections to categorize your countless favorites. Yay!
You can go to your smartphone settings and turn your KptnCook push notifications on and off. But seriously: do you really wanna miss out on our legendary food puns and jokes? I didn’t think so ;-)

We’re huge fans of seasonal recipes! Therefore, we try to cook with the delicious veggies and fruits that are in season in the area where the recipe author is based as often as possible. But if we feature a not so seasonal veggie in a recipe from time to time, we hope you’ll turn a blind eye ;-) By the way, you can easily filter your favorites list by season. Or check out our fresh newsletter! There we share our seasonal calendar with you once a month and provide you with seasonal super recipes.
On a regular day we have one vegan, one vegetarian, and one protein recipe. Our protein recipes can be further broken down into beef, poultry, lamb, game, fish, and seafood. You can determine which category a recipe falls into by the icon located on the top left next to the cooking time and under the recipe name. Plus, you can discover even more categories by using the filter function in your favorites list!
Because they are so delicious! Every day you can discover something new. By consciously decreasing your meat consumption, you are not only doing your health but also the environment a great service.
We are flexitarians: veggie lovers who eat meat a maximum of two times per week; less is more, and quality trumps quantity.
We love when organic products are easy to find, especially when it comes to fish and meat. However, sometimes organic products are hard to find in conventional supermarkets. For this reason, you can find both organic and non-organic products on your shopping list.
We do our best to make sure all the ingredients for each recipe can be found in the selected supermarket. However, sometimes stores change their orders causing certain items to be out of stock. If for some reason you cannot find a product, maybe there’s something similar? If you have questions, you can always text us on Instagram @kptncookapp or write a mail to feedback@kptncook.com. Or try to be creative! Creation and cooking go hand-in-hand; discovery is part of the journey!
It is always good to have these cupboard essentials: salt, pepper, sugar, olive oil, sunflower oil, flour, and our flavorful friend - garlic. These essentials won’t appear on your shopping list, but we have them in the section ’You might have this at home’. We recommend always checking this section before going to the store. Regarding cooking tools, you will need a stove, an oven, knives, pans, a whisk, a spatula, and occasionally a blender.
With the help of our nutritionists, we cook every recipe and calculate the ingredients needed in one serving, allowing us to multiply it according to your selected number of servings. So regardless of whether you are preparing a romantic candlelight dinner or a big party, the servings calculator tells you the correct ingredient quantities.
For each ingredient in the recipe, we calculate the nutritional value per single serving. We determine the number of calories and grams of protein, fat, and carbohydrates. The colored partial circle around the nutritional measurements refers to the portion of the nutritional element this recipe contains based on the average values for adults. These average values are 2000 cal, 50g protein, 70g fat, and 270g carbs.
