Cooking Video to Recipe: Ingredients, Steps, Nutrition
Example session with this skill installed
Turn this TikTok caption into a recipe for 3, in metric units, with nutrition per serving and a shopping list: "Creamy Tuscan Chicken Pasta. 250g penne, 2 chicken breasts sliced, 1 tbsp olive oil, 3 garlic cloves, 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, 2 handfuls spinach, 200ml cooking cream, 1/3 cup grated parmesan, salt, pepper, 1 tsp italian herbs. Sear the chicken, then garlic and tomatoes, add cream, herbs and parmesan, stir in spinach, toss with the penne."
- Read your context and instructions
- Compiled the cooking video to
Creamy Tuscan Chicken Pasta (serves 3, metric)
Prep 10 min and cook 15 min are estimates, because the caption gives no times.
Shopping list (by aisle)
- Produce: 3 garlic cloves; 2 handfuls spinach
- Meat and poultry: 2 chicken breasts, sliced
- Dairy and eggs: 200 ml cooking cream; 79 ml grated parmesan
- Grains, pasta and rice: 250 g penne
- Canned and jarred: 120 ml sun-dried tomatoes
- Oils and vinegars: 1 tbsp olive oil
- Spices and seasonings: 1 tsp Italian herbs; salt and pepper to taste
Method
- Boil the penne until al dente.
- Season the sliced chicken with salt and pepper.
- Heat the olive oil and sear the chicken until golden on both sides, about 5.5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pan, sauté the garlic and sun-dried tomatoes for 1 minute.
- Pour in the cream, add the Italian herbs and parmesan, and simmer for 2 minutes.
- Stir in the spinach until wilted.
- Return the chicken and pasta to the pan and toss to coat in the sauce.
Nutrition per serving (estimated): 789 kcal, 43.7 g protein, 35.8 g fat, 73.1 g carbs. Eight of the nine measured ingredients matched USDA FoodData Central; Italian herbs did not match, so the figures are approximate.
Cost: 1 recipe x $0.04 = $0.04.

About this skill
Turn cooking videos and pasted TikTok or Reels captions into structured recipes: ingredients with quantities, steps, servings scaling, metric or imperial units, USDA nutrition and a shopping list.
This skill teaches your agent when and how to call the Video to Recipe tool on the MessNoMore Data Tools MCP server, with tight cost caps and answers that cite their source.
Ask your agent
- "Turn this TikTok caption into a recipe for 4 in cups, with a shopping list."
- "Make a recipe from this cooking video file."
- "Scale this YouTube recipe to 6 servings with nutrition per serving."
What the skill adds
- Picks the right mode and arguments for the question.
- Caps every run to the results the question needs and asks before any job over about $1.
- Handles runs that take longer than the client waits, without starting duplicates.
- Answers in tables with source links and last-verified dates, flags low-confidence matches and never fills gaps from memory.
Why not just ask your agent?
Models answer questions like these from training data that is months or years old, and they guess codes, dates and registry entries that look right. This skill makes the agent fetch the current record from the source instead, and say so when nothing matches.
Use cases
- Save TikTok recipes as written recipes
- Scale a recipe and convert units
- Build a shopping list from cooking videos
- Estimate nutrition per serving
- Turn cooking audio or video files into recipes
