Gourmet Recipe Manager

Gourmet Recipe Manager is a gtk-based recipe organizer and shopping list generator intended for the GNOME desktop environment (though it does not need all the GNOME libraries).

Gourmet imports recipes from a number of sources, including MealMaster and MasterCook archives and several popular websites. Gourmet can export recipes as text, MealMaster files, HTML web pages, and a custom XML format for exchange with other Gourmet users. Gourmet supports linking images with recipes. Gourmet can also calculate nutritional information for recipes based on the ingredients.

Gourmet includes a copy of the USDA nutritional database, which has thousands of items to calculate nutritional information. It has a plugin architecture which allows you to enable extensions to Gourmet's base functionality.
