Here’s another recipe app for iPad that has me drooling for two reasons — delicious dishes and delicious pixels. We’ve previously seen the Green Kitchen Stories app for iPad that brings us a delicious serving of healthy green recipes. Filibaba (funky name, guys) has now come out with the Veggie Meals app for iPad that brings you 55 different easy to cook meals and their recipes. These recipes come along with some stunning pictures of the dishes, so it’s a beautiful sight to look at. The app’s graphic design is from the hands of Max Rudberg, whose work we’ve already…
