The iPad has infiltrated our lives in a ton of unique ways. It is portable, light and has great battery life.

One of these ways is in the kitchen. While Safari is fine for searching and reading recipes, there's a better way: Basil.

Built for the iPad, Basil can be used to search for, collect, organize and record recipes. With tags and search, there's no need to sort things in to folders, and since it can all be exported to Dropbox, your data is safe and sound.

Check out Basil on the iOS App Store, where it's on sale for $1.99.
