# Use-case

Recipe Creator ensures that users don't need advanced DeFi coding knowledge to execute complex strategies. In this article, we'd like to outline some of the use-cases of our tool:<br>

* **Increased staking rewards** - Within a single transaction, users can create multi-leveraged transactions to ensure maximum staking rewards. \
  \
  The most common recipe for this is to start with a flash loan, wrapping ETH, staking both the flash loaned LST and wrapped ETH and creating a leveraged position.&#x20;

By visiting our Recipe Creator, you'll see numerous strategies that include leveraging ETH-based LSTs - let's take the "Leverage wstETH-ETH using Spark" strategy as an example:

By clicking on any of the strategies, you'll get a full breakdown including:

* The precise steps that the strategy executes
* A description of the strategy, including its use-case

*ETHSaver is a tool built by the DeFi Saver team. It's fully focused on allowing users to easily create leveraged positions using ETH and ETH-based LSTs. You can learn more about it in the* [*ETHSaver Knowledge Base articles.*](https://help.defisaver.com/features/eth-saver)
{% endhint %}

Clicking on "Execute" will activate the strategy, and after signing the transaction, you'll be able to see the newly opened position on the "Portfolio" page:

* **Lend and supply in multiple protocols to increase passive income and retain collateral exposure** - By creating a recipe where you borrow from one protocol, and supply the debt in another, you can increase your passive income while retaining exposure to your collateral asset.

Let's build a stategy from scratch that will:

* Open a CDP on Maker
* Use the debt from maker in Compound
* This will let us keep exposure to ETH while earning passive income in another protocol.

The first step would be navigating to the Recipe Creator page, and then the "Create recipe" tab:

<figure><img src="https://2276946674-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fo1t7pGS5d15WeQzoQ3Fe%2Fuploads%2FhOs5vvYXMqBTKvAwfqCd%2FScreenshot%202025-05-27%20153218.png?alt=media&#x26;token=3a00bf6d-cbe3-44c6-a12d-af54ae0baf7a" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}
*You'll notice a plethora of actions to choose from in the Recipe Creator. You can refer to the* [*"Available actions" article*](https://help.defisaver.com/features/recipe-creator/available-actions) *to get familiar with all of the possibilities when creating a recipe.*
{% endhint %}

Once here, let's start by using the "Create New Vault" action from the Maker tab:

<figure><img src="https://2276946674-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fo1t7pGS5d15WeQzoQ3Fe%2Fuploads%2FrTS3WRpOkRbFau0AUn1F%2FScreenshot%202025-05-27%20153407.png?alt=media&#x26;token=3d0a555f-da9e-41f6-aa31-e3b4e249d4c6" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Since we need to supply funds to the CDP, let's wrap some of our ETH in order to supply it to the CDP. We'll do this with the "Wrap ETH" action from the "Utility" tab:

<figure><img src="https://2276946674-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fo1t7pGS5d15WeQzoQ3Fe%2Fuploads%2FXMnWB6sGWKXkYAixmlo6%2FScreenshot%202025-05-27%20153446.png?alt=media&#x26;token=d3230263-f784-40ef-b24b-d3a850a619e5" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Going back to the Maker tab, we'll see the "Supply collateral to Vault" action:

<figure><img src="https://2276946674-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fo1t7pGS5d15WeQzoQ3Fe%2Fuploads%2F3c4kGfDJ0UaRZbhjsgOg%2FScreenshot%202025-05-27%20153544.png?alt=media&#x26;token=3fcac352-93c0-498b-86a2-0876b69aff51" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Now that we've added collateral, let's borrow some DAI by adding the "Generate DAI from Vault" action:

<figure><img src="https://2276946674-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fo1t7pGS5d15WeQzoQ3Fe%2Fuploads%2FhRfcra3qt4C7eRZNoV5a%2FScreenshot%202025-05-27%20153622.png?alt=media&#x26;token=314382ed-6c47-4253-ba2a-a171d500c552" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Finally, we can go ahead and supply the borrowed DAI to Compound:

<figure><img src="https://2276946674-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fo1t7pGS5d15WeQzoQ3Fe%2Fuploads%2FTbv50JfdPozwiw7y0bsU%2FScreenshot%202025-05-27%20153734.png?alt=media&#x26;token=853f6fa9-9ca1-4f6b-8781-88fdf4c4745d" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

We'll be able to preview the final state after the recipe, and when everything checks out, click "Execute":

<figure><img src="https://2276946674-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fo1t7pGS5d15WeQzoQ3Fe%2Fuploads%2FbHhyng0bizQMQlqA0rsE%2FScreenshot%202025-05-27%20153848.png?alt=media&#x26;token=9a57e1c5-96d0-4e9e-9479-d0d01f7a1e90" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

We'll also be able to view both our Maker and Compound positions on the "Portfolio" page:

<figure><img src="https://2276946674-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fo1t7pGS5d15WeQzoQ3Fe%2Fuploads%2FiwBjnifDTDSfcXntXh09%2FScreenshot%202025-05-27%20153905.png?alt=media&#x26;token=dc82d759-b2c1-4583-8275-433d289c8044" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

So, within a single transaction, and a couple of clicks, we both created a Maker position, and supplied to Compound. Thus, saving on time and gas fees.

*We highly recommend getting familiar with all of our tools before using Recipe Creator.*\
\
*This ensures that you don't need to go through the trouble of setting up the recipe for a process that already exists within DeFi Saver.*
{% endhint %}

Of course, users can also utilize the Recipe Creator to make their own recipes which align with their DeFi strategies.
