Hi Dee - Have you looked at https://supermarket.chef.io/, there's also
a tutorial at http://gettingstartedwithchef.com/ that sets up a website
using Chef recipes and a cookbook:
Our first Chef cookbook

        So, what do we need to do to get our web server up and running?


        
 * Install and configure Apache

 * Install and configure MySQL

 * Install and configure PHP

 * Deploy our website code to the site
