Tips for better results
Count the eggs
Two eggs is a breakfast for one. Eight eggs is a frittata for four. CookBook AI scales servings to what you've actually got.
Name the meal
'Breakfast', 'brunch', 'quick dinner', 'late-night snack' — each shifts the recipe set. Without context, eggs default to breakfast.
Dairy changes everything
Mention if you have milk, cream, butter, cheese, yogurt, or none. The technique (custardy, fluffy, crispy) depends on it.
Frequently asked questions
What can I make with just eggs?
More than you'd think. With eggs alone you have scrambled, soft-boiled, hard-boiled, fried, omelet, and Spanish-style tortilla (if you have potatoes and oil). Paste 'eggs' into CookBook AI with any other ingredient and you'll get three real recipes back.
What can I make with eggs and bread?
French toast, savory strata, egg-in-a-hole, breakfast sandwiches, croque madame, panade. Add what dairy you have (milk, cream, cheese) for sharper results.
What dinner can I make with eggs?
Eggs are dinner food too — shakshuka, frittata, fried rice with egg, carbonara, Korean gyeran-bap, ramen with soft-boiled egg, huevos rancheros. Say 'dinner with eggs' in the prompt.
How many eggs do recipes usually need?
Breakfast: 2–3 per person. Frittata or strata for 4: 8–10 eggs. Baking varies wildly. CookBook AI scales the recipe to the number of eggs you tell it you have.
