Recipes without the ads. No popups. No life stories. No autoplay videos. Just real recipes from real home cooks — clean, kitchen-ready, and free forever.
San Marzano tomatoes, fresh basil, and a touch of cream.
Every recipe site is a maze of ads, popups, autoplay videos, and a 2,000-word essay about the author's summer in Tuscany. Here's what we fix.
Everything you actually need when you're cooking with one hand and a wooden spoon in the other.
Find recipes by ingredient, cuisine, dietary needs, or difficulty. Smart filters make discovery easy.
Upload grandma's handwritten recipes, your own experiments, or family favorites.
Vote up the recipes you love. Popular recipes rise to the top so everyone finds the best dishes.
No popups, no autoplay videos, no banner ads. Just the recipe, the way it should be.
One-tap shopping per ingredient. Send to Instacart, copy your list, or print it out.
Mobile, tablet, desktop. No app to download, no account required. Just open and cook.
Discover ad-free recipes from real home cooks.
Check off ingredients as you go. No ads, no nonsense.
Upload your best recipes in seconds.
Heart recipes you enjoy. Help others find the best.
You know the feeling. It's 6 PM, the kids (or in my case, the dogs) are hungry, and you found a recipe that looked perfect. You tap the link.
And then it starts. A popup asking for your email. A video ad that autoplays with sound. A banner ad. Three paragraphs about how this recipe reminds the author of their grandmother. Another ad. Another popup. Scroll, scroll, scroll. Where is the actual recipe?
So I built ParentRecipe — a community of home cooks sharing recipes the way they should be: clean, simple, and ad-free. Real people, real recipes, no nonsense.
I'm building this on my own in the little free time I have. With twins on the way, a full house, and plenty of chaos already, I get how tough cooking can be some days. That's why it'll always stay free: no ads, no tracking, no nonsense. Want in?
The community recipe app is free forever. Pro features are coming soon for power users.
Everything you need to cook ad-free.
For serious home cooks who want more.
Yes. The core app is free forever — no trial, no hidden fees. We earn a small commission when you buy ingredients or kitchen gear through our optional affiliate links, but you're never required to use them.
Affiliate commissions. When a recipe calls for an ingredient or tool, we may show a "Buy" link to Amazon, Instacart, or similar. If you buy through it, we earn a small percentage. No banner ads, no popups, no tracking pixels. Eventually a small Pro tier ($2.99/mo) will add meal planning for users who want more.
Yes — it's built mobile-first. Large readable text, easy ingredient check-off, and a clean view designed for cooking. No app to install (it's a web app), but you can add it to your home screen on iOS and Android.
No. You can browse and view all recipes without any account. You can even upload recipes anonymously. Optional accounts will eventually let you save favorites and access Pro features when those launch.
Absolutely! Just click "Upload Recipe" and fill in the form. Your recipe will be instantly live for the whole community to discover. You can post anonymously or with a name — your choice.
Join the early access list. We'll send you an invite the moment we launch — plus a permanent discount on Pro.
