Yummly integrates with Instacart for one-hour delivery of recipe ingredients
The popular recipe app Yummly has just been updated with a new major feature in the form of integration with the popular one-hour grocery delivery service Instacart.
Since September 2013, Instacart has been tapping into Yummly’s recipe platform and enabling its customers to easily search recipes and have the ingredients delivered.
Now, at long last, the integration works the other way, allowing you to have the ingredients for recipes in your Yummly shopping list delivered to your doorstep in an hour. As noted by the Yummly team:
With our new partnership with Instacart, the ingredients for your next recipe can be at your door in an hour. Simply add ingredients to your Yummly shopping list, Tap to shop ingredients from Instacart, and have your groceries hand delivered conveniently to your door. With Instacart, we’ve got you covered from inspiration to preparation!
