This New App Feature Lets You Customize Any Tasty Recipe To Be Easier Or More Nutritious. Here's How It Works

If you're anything like me (and by that, I mean someone who spends a chaotic amount of time scrolling through recipes at all hours of the day), then you've probably got a whole lot of favorite recipes that you've made time and time again. Maybe it's our Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies (my dessert of choice, TBH), or our Paprika Chicken and Rice Bake (a classic!). You've made 'em more times than you can possibly count — and you know exactly what to expect from them.

But what if you could take those same beloved recipes and breathe new life (and flavor) into them without having to figure out the new method yourself?

Enter Recipe Remixes, the Tasty app's newest feature that allows you to make any of the 7,500+ free recipes in our catalog easier or more nutritious — or turn it into something entirely unique.

Think of Recipe Remixes as your favorite Tasty recipes with a plot twist. When you visit a recipe page in the app, you'll see a shiny new Remix button. Tap it, and you'll get multiple options for switching things up in a way that's fresh (but still familiar).

Each recipe gets three types of Remixes. First, you'll see Remixes based on popular tips from our Tasty community.

Tasty AI scans the most game-changing user tips and pulls out the best ones; no more sifting through 500 comments to find one golden nugget of wisdom. If the Tasty community has a foolproof method for making a recipe more flavorful (or, in this case, spicier), you'll be the first to know about it.

Next, you'll see two Remixes from Tasty: Make it easier or make it more nutritious.

Note: Not every recipe in our library will have a "make it easier" variation since it's not really possible to make recipes that are already very easy (like this Chocolate Mug Cake) any easier.

Start with a recipe you've been way too intimidated to make — Beef Wellington, anyone? — and see what we suggest to make it more manageable. Or, if you’re looking to amp up the nutrition factor of a recipe, you’ll get suggestions for simple swaps and better-for-you add-ins.

Last but very much not least, if you don't quite know what you're looking for but want some sort of recipe riff, we'll surprise you. Maybe it'll be a genius transformation, like turning Marry Me Chicken into a skillet pizza! Or maybe it'll be...well, wacky. There's only one way to find out.

No matter which Remix you pick, we want to know what you think. Give your remixes a quick thumbs up (or down) to help us fine-tune future Remixes.

Now, listen. Could you just turn to your AI of choice and get it to customize a recipe to your liking? You could, of course. But here's what sets Recipe Remixes apart: our Tasty community is at the heart of it. We're pairing the collective genius of Tasty fans — who've actually made these recipes, tweaked them, and found ways to make them even better — with AI to bring you brand-new versions of your current go-to's. When you remix a recipe, you're tapping into the wisdom of home cooks everywhere.

(And let's be real: Sometimes, cooking can feel kinda thankless, and it needs a little more joy. That's where the "Surprise me" button comes in. 👀)

Recipe Remixes are now live on the iOS Tasty app, which you can download for free, so give it a spin, and then let us know what you think! I'm not gonna make any promises... but you just might discover your new go-to dish. (It's 2025; wilder things have happened.)

Note: Though Recipe Remixes aren't yet available on our Android app, you can still download the Tasty app and explore our entire library of recipes.
