Hi,

There is no easy way that I know of so what we do is store all the
visited recipes via snippet of code in our run list. It looks
something like the following. Then we just search on the attribute we
created

ruby_block 'get_seen_recipes' do
  block do
    node.override['knife_audit']['seen_recipes'] = run_context.loaded_recipes
  end
  action :create
end
