Ai-Recipe-Assistant

An MCP app on the Model Context Protocol built by The Glitch Grinders at the Amrita University Coimbatore NitroStack × MCP To The Moon hackathon and deployed on NitroStack.

About this project

AI Recipe & Nutrition Assistant is an intelligent AI-powered application built using the NitroStack MCP (Model Context Protocol) Framework. It enables users to discover recipes, explore ingredients, and analyze nutritional information through natural language conversations. The system integrates two comprehensive datasets—a recipe dataset and a nutrition dataset—and exposes them as MCP tools that AI agents can access in real time. Instead of manually searching through multiple websites or nutrition databases, users can simply ask questions such as "Find a high-protein breakfast recipe", "Show foods rich in fiber", or "How many calories are in an apple?". The AI agent interprets the request, invokes the appropriate MCP tools, retrieves relevant information from the datasets, and delivers accurate, structured, and easy-to-understand responses.

What is an MCP app and how is it built?
An MCP app is an application built on the Model Context Protocol — an open standard that lets AI agents connect to tools, data, and APIs. This project exposes MCP tools and resources that agentic AI systems can call. It was built and deployed on NitroStack, the full-stack platform for shipping MCP apps and servers.
