What is the skill doing? 🤔 Alexa Skill that would present users with different cuisines based on the various nutritional values or quantities they prefer. For example, a user may ask - Alexa, give a meal that has at least 60 calories and 50 gram protein.

Where are we getting the data from? 📊 For the skill to gather all the meal names with the accurate nutritional values, we are using Spoonacular API. You need to sign an setup get the API KEY.

How can I use it? In order to use the Skill on your Alexa Console, you need to import it.

Click on it and this repositores URL: https://github.com/alexa-dev-hub/alexa-skill-nutritional-cuisines.git Once it finishes processing, you can test the skill. Skill Details The Skill can be used as template for API calling.

I created the API key and added it to lambda code, should I make a pull request?

Sure. Note down to not expose your API keys and other secret info if they are present. Just put env files in gitignore.
