FRIO

The Team
Dominique Rivero, Expereince Designer
Introduction
College students are constantly worrying about what their next meal is going to be due to most of them not knowing how or what to cook with the food they have. The solution is FRIO, a platform that can curate recipes based on what users have at home, as well as teaching them basic skills on how to cook with the limited food they have at home.
A modern take...
Learning to cook is an essential life skill that we should all possess. It’s reported that a good home-cooked meal is the best way to be sure of what you are eating and will contribute to a healthy lifestyle.

It is especially tough to eat healthy as a college student because the food that is served on campus is usually mass produced, while the people who live off campus are often on budgets.
