How to Write a Food Recipe Blog Post with AI

by | Jun 30, 2023 | Blogging Tips, Video Tutorials




In an ever-evolving digital landscape, bloggers are constantly seeking ways to streamline content creation while maintaining uniqueness and creativity. One such approach is by leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI). This article, along with my step-by-step YouTube tutorial, will teach you how to use the AI-powered tools, Chat GPT and Midjourney, along with the WP Recipe Maker WordPress plugin to create a standout food recipe blog post.

Step 1: Generating the Content with Chat GPT

Chat GPT, powered by OpenAI, is an innovative tool that can generate human-like text based on the prompt given.

  1. Begin by visiting the OpenAI website and signing in to the Chat GPT interface.
  2. Provide a prompt to the model that specifies the type of recipe you'd like to create. For instance, if you want to create a vegan chocolate cake recipe, your prompt could be “Write a detailed recipe for a vegan chocolate cake.”
  3. Click enter on your keyboard or on the ‘Generate Icon' and watch as Chat GPT creates a unique, detailed recipe for you, complete with ingredients, measurements, and step-by-step instructions.

The more specific your prompt, the more tailored the generated content will be. Remember, the generated content may need some editing to ensure it aligns with your blog's style and tone.

Step 2: Creating Food Imagery with Midjourney

Great content isn't complete without equally great visuals. Midjourney, an AI-based image synthesizer, allows you to create appealing food images that perfectly match your recipe.

  1. First, sign up for Discord if you haven't already.
  2. Next, sign up for Midjourney and accept the invitation to the Midjourney Discord channel.
  3. Once you're in, go to the #newbies channel and type /subscribe.
  4. Choose your Midjourney plan that best suits your needs.
  5. Now, you're ready to start generating images. To do this, enter /imagine in the message box, followed by a description of the dish you want to visualize. For example, “/imagine a vegan chocolate cake topped with fresh berries.” Press enter or return to submit your prompt.
  6. Midjourney's AI will generate a series of images based on your description. You can then edit your creations to fit your vision better. If you need to refine the resolution of your image, you can use the upscale feature.
  7. Once you've obtained the perfect image, download it and prepare to wow your blog audience.

Remember, the more specific your prompt, the more tailored the generated images will be. So, take your time to think about how you'd like your dish to be presented.

If you need some extra help, I have a Midjourney video tutorial that walks you through the entire process. Check it out if you want some extra tips on how to get started with Midjourney.
