Kitchen Monki (www.kitchenmonki.com) recently announced a beta program for Monki Publisher, a set of API tools for “live recipe” syndication on blogs and other websites that feature recipe content.

Engineered for WordPress bloggers, Monki Publisher is a plug-in that creates a permanent recipe repository that’s searchable via an iTunes-like interface. It also enables publishers to embed recipes within their content – and provide their readers with access to powerful Kitchen Monki tools that assist with grocery list creation, meal planning, and recipe bookmarking.

Monki Publisher can provide even burgeoning recipe sites and blossoming “foodie” bloggers with big-site functionality.

Kitchen Monki plans to release additional API tools for other blog platforms after the conclusion of its beta program.  For more information on Monki Publisher – or to participate in the beta program – please visit:  http://www.monkipublisher.com/.
