Build Your Own Cookbook
Build your own cookbook is where you search the MECC recipe databases to find recipes that are right for you. Then I take these shell recipes and customize them to your diet, number of people, and sensitivities.
The MECC database of recipes includes over 1200 tried and tested recipes. Some will be recipes found online and remade. Some are recipes I have been working on since I was 12. Most of them will be easy to follow. All of them will be easy to teach. This means that you can easily follow a recipe you bought. I will send you a step-by-step video to follow.

Recipe
​
Each recipe could be made for 1 to 100 people by using mathematics to change measurements. For example, a serving of protein per person is 4 ounces. So if you are cooking for 6 people that will be 24 ounces of meat. 24 ounces of meat is 1 ½ lbs of meat. Now you know that 1 ½ lbs of ground beef will feed 6 people.
​
Since we know how much ground beef we’d need for six, let's experiment. I want to make tacos for 6 people. Each serving is 3 tacos. So I need 18 shells, and 1 ½ lbs of ground beef. Now let’s add cheese. If a serving of cheese is ¼ cup, that’s how much cheese you would use for 3 tacos. Now when it comes to vegetables like lettuce, or tomatoes you can pack them down. So let’s recap, to make tacos for 6 you need 18 shells, 1 ½ lb ground beef, 1 ½ cups of cheese. Lettuce and tomatoes until your heart's content.
​
Unless a recipe is a dessert, it will be able to be modeled to fit what you need. If you need 1 plate or if you need 10 plates. This way you can make it for yourself or a party. With a build-your-own cookbook, you choose the recipes. MECC offers over 1200 recipes you can choose from. Once you choose your recipes the cost will be calculated.
​
Recipes can also be modified to fit any diet, so a meat recipe can easily be turned into a vegan or vegetarian, unless otherwise specified. A lot of the dessert recipes are also available in three different ways. Original: These recipes will use real sugar, butter and dairy. Sugar-free: These recipes will use regular butter and dairy but they will use sugar alternatives like splenda or truvia. Lastly we will have Vegan: Vegan recipes use dairy-free milk, sugar alternatives, and vegan butters. These recipes will also use chia seed or eggless where the other varieties will use eggs.

​
Answer: Now a lot of brands offer lactose free yogurt. They offer a good variety of flavors. Now when it comes to lactose free, yoplait has the biggest variety of flavors.
​
I was diagnosed with heart failure. Does that mean I need a heart transplant?
