Build a Recipe Manager with Classes

Level: Beginner

Your task for today is to create a recipe management system using Python classes that stores ingredients and cooking instructions for different recipes — helping you practice Object-Oriented Programming with a practical, everyday example.

Project Task

Create a recipe manager that:

• Uses a Python class to represent a recipe

• Stores recipe name, ingredients list, and cooking time as attributes

• Includes a method to display the full recipe details

• Includes a method to add new ingredients to the recipe

• Creates multiple recipe instances to build a cookbook

• Demonstrates how lists can be stored as class attributes

• Shows how methods can modify object data dynamically

This project gives you hands-on practice with classes, working with list attributes, methods that modify data, and managing collections of objects — essential skills for building more complex applications with OOP.
