Your recipe. Your way. Six new app features are here.
We've been building quietly in the background for a while now and we are so damn excited to finally share what's new.
Six new features have just landed in the Two Raw Sisters app. And while we'd love to say we came up with all of this over a single cup of coffee, the truth is we built every single one of them in direct response to what you've been telling us. In the comments, in your emails, in our community - you've been asking, and we've been listening.
The big idea behind all of it? Your recipe should work for you. You should never have to adapt to it.
First, a little story about how this happened.
The TRS team spent months building the feature capability. But it was Margo who took one for the team when it came to testing the features. She spent the last couple of weeks going through every single recipe on the app - all 900+ of them - building swaps into each ingredient, adding protein suggestions to savoury recipes and checking every gluten-free and dairy-free filter worked on each recipe. 6:30am starts, midnight finishes. (You might have seen her Instagram stories at midnight rocking out to music with the caption "deadlines".)
Why was it worth it? Because food has become full of rules, pressure and conflicting advice and everything we build is our way of pushing back against that. The kitchen should feel liberating, not intimidating. These six features are tools designed to remove pressure rather than add to it: to give you permission to cook your own way, with what you've got, for whoever's at your table.
The six new features, explained.
1. Ingredient Swaps - smarter, faster, and built right in.
Ingredient swaps have always been what sets us apart. One of our community members put it perfectly: "You've shifted it from the formulaic, 'if you don't have everything you can't make it' mindset - to who the hell cares, here are your swaps."
But swaps used to live as a list at the top of the recipe. Easy to miss, and you still had to figure out how the method would work around them.
Not anymore. Swaps are now built into every single ingredient. Tap swap next to anything, pick what you've got from the suggestions, and your ingredients list and method update automatically. If you swap broccoli for cauliflower, the method says cauliflower. As Rosa puts it: "If that ingredient takes longer to cook, it will tell you the right time. So there's no guesswork.”
You can swap grains, nuts, seeds, herbs, vegetables, proteins - and every suggestion is seasonal, so we only show you things you can actually get your hands on. Margo's favourite example: "If you get a bag of carrots and you're like, what the hell do I cook with these - you can swap ingredients so that every week you've got recipes using similar things, but in really different ways."
2. Protein Add-Ons - one recipe, everyone at the table sorted.
This one came from the person in your house who always asks where the meat is.
Two Raw Sisters has always been plant-forward, and that's not changing but as Margo puts it: "Rosa and I aren't vegan or vegetarian ourselves. We always add protein to our meals." Now you can too. Savoury recipes have a dedicated protein add-on section right at the top. Pick your protein - chicken, salmon, beef, prawns, tofu, falafel, steak, lamb - and the ingredients and method update automatically to include it. Prefer it without? Skip the section. As Rosa says: "If the protein thing's not for you, you can disregard it and just have your vegetarian meal. It caters for everyone."
Same recipe, same amount of effort, everyone is happy.
3. Localisation - swaps that match your supermarket.
When you tap swap, suggestions are now personalised to where you live - in season, in your language, and available at your local supermarket. Coriander or cilantro. Capsicum or bell pepper. Courgette or zucchini. We're speaking your language now.
Head to settings and update your region. Takes ten seconds.
4. Dietary Filters - gluten-free and dairy-free, sorted.
Nearly every recipe in the app - all 900+ - can now be made gluten-free and dairy-free. Rosa, as a registered nutritionist, has made sure every single substitution actually works - so you don't have to wonder. Select your dietary need at the top of any recipe and everything updates automatically. No manual substitutions, no cross-referencing. We've done that thinking for you.
5. Folders on Your Homepage - no scrolling, just cook.
Your most-used folders now live at the top of your homepage, surfaced automatically every time you open the app. Think of it like Spotify surfacing your most-played playlists. Same idea. Less friction between you and dinner.
6. Shopping Lists - your list writes itself.
Tap shopping list on any recipe and the ingredients are added automatically, quantities already adjusted to your serving size. Add a full week of meals and everything consolidates into one list - sectioned by fridge, freezer, produce and pantry making grocery shopping even easier. Add custom items too, then tick things off as you go.
Walk in knowing exactly what you need. Walk out without that feeling of having forgotten something.
Why we built all of this →
Everything we build starts with you. The swaps feature exists because you were running to the supermarket for one missing ingredient. The protein add-on exists because you were trying to cook one meal for a household with different needs. The dietary filters exist because you were doing mental gymnastics trying to make a recipe work. The shopping list exists because you had five different notes in your phone.
As Rosa says when she talks to app users: "Everyone has a different purpose - some people are just snacks and dinners, some people are just breakfasts - but it's a platform they go back to, once, twice, three times a week for that daily inspiration." These features are about making every one of those moments easier.
And as Margo puts it: "Everything you need is already in your kitchen. We just help you see it."
