ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga., Feb. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Scratch cooks aren't the only
people who need a cooking website.  Launching today, FunnySpoon.com serves up
recipes featuring incredible menu shortcuts that are created through the use
of common grocery store items.  

FunnySpoon.com features dozens of recipes and coupons, as well as a shopping
list generator.  The website was created by two working women, Carrie Myers
Jaynes and Vicki Monti, who searched for a resource and community to help them
create quick and healthy meals that use branded grocery store products.  Not
finding any, they created it themselves.  

"FunnySpoon is for the Wednesday night cook in all of us - when there is no
time to cook from scratch, you don't want to drag the family to a restaurant,
and you don't want breakfast for dinner again."  Said co-founder Carrie Myers
Jaynes, "By using everyday ingredients, you can create a dish - in just
minutes - that your family will love and you'll feel great about serving!"

"People feel overwhelmed by meal preparation - what to cook, what products to
buy, how to prepare.  FunnySpoon meets those anxieties head-on by providing
solutions that are quick and nutritious, and by celebrating the fact that you
can deliver a from-scratch result without the from-scratch complexity.  We do
this by pairing branded products that complement each other to create the
perfect dish. Everyone has their secret shortcut recipe and we'd like them to
share their wealth of knowledge with the rest of us who are trying to figure
out the daily meal-time dilemma," said Carrie.  

With families heading back to their home kitchens for dinner during the
economic downturn, FunnySpoon comes at a perfect time to help people put
quality food on the table at a fraction of restaurant prices. "FunnySpoon
cooking is not cheating," said Vicki.  "Not even professional chefs cook from
scratch every night they are home.  There's no shame in using shortcuts when
the result is a great-tasting dish that fits your budget and your time."

FunnySpoon.com Announces Recipe Contest

Just in time for the website's debut, FunnySpoon.com is holding a "Share Your
Recipe" contest inviting all non-scratch cooks, young and old, new and
experienced, to share their recipes for quick meal preparation and shortcuts
to simplify the cooking process.  The first fifty submissions will receive a
canvas, eco-friendly shopping bag courtesy of FunnySpoon.com.
