Click the image to watch example uses of the mcp server to 1) find themed recipes, and creating an .ics event to block meal prep time; 2) find recipes based on an image of your groceries! [![Watch the trailer](https://img.youtube.com/vi/VtKMYpnC2EI/maxresdefault.jpg)](https://youtu.be/VtKMYpnC2EI) ## 📝 Description This project is essentially a **web scraper built specifically for Canada's Food Guide ** that's been wrapped into a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. **Why this matters:** Instead of LLMs having to figure out Canada's Food Guide website structure, search through HTML, and extract recipe information manually each call, this server gives LLMs three simple, ready-to-use tools for quick-calls: 1. 🔍 **Search for recipes** with smart filtering (by ingredient, meal type, dietary preferences) 2. 📖 **Get complete recipe details** (ingredients, instructions, cooking tips, nutritional info) 3. 📋 **Discover available filters** (see what ingredients, meal types, and collections are available) The server is built using the FastMCP library and uses custom BeautifulSoup4 scrapers fine-tuned to Canada's Food Guide website structure, making Canada's Food Guide Recipes directly accessible to AI assistants.
