How do you organize recipes you find online?

[Anonymous]

Whenever I find a recipe online on my computer I save the URL to my notes app but then can never find it again. Is there a website or better way to file these somewhere?

Awesome software to track recipes and even import directly from a browser.

+1 for Paprika app. I bought versions for both my laptop and phone (they sync together).

I use pinterest for that. One board is just for saving recipes I come across. Once I've tried it and like it, I move it to a "Make Again" board.

Me too. My fave app.

I email them to myself, with the subject line being “pumpkin pie” or whatever. Not very elegant but it works!

I print to pdf or copy and paste to a word document if it's long, and save to a folder in my documents, that way I can edit it to suit my preferences. The I upload to Google drive so I can access from my phone. I don't want to rely on the website which usually has a lot of annoying narrative on the page.

I kept losing recipes online so I made myself a binder. I'm now printing them off and putting them in sheet protectors. The mental load of cooking is what kills me and having a hard copy helps me a lot.

I just bookmark them on my computer and organize in a folder specific for recipes, and then when I need a certain recipe I search my bookmarks for the name of a particular item - tortellini vegetable soup, collard greens with ham, etc.

Then I pull it up on my IPad when cooking so I can follow along with it propped on a stand.

Pre-iPhone, I used to just print them out and save them in my recipe folder. Now I copy them into my notes, as text, not link. Add “recipe” to title. Easy to find, and I use my phone anyway for cooking.

This is what I do.

I have a Recipes to Try digital folder and a Recipes Made folder. I bookmark recipes I might want to make in the first folder and search for them by keyword. After I make them, I bookmark them in the Recipes Made folder. Very easy.

I also have a Recipes Made note with a running list by date where I make observations about how the recipe turned out, any alterations I made, etc.

My husband and I have our iPhones in a “family” and that’s an app we can share. We can both schedule recipes or write notes on the calendar to meal plan.

This is exactly what I do too. I can always make random notes and amendments on the printed out sheet.

I print them and keep in a file folder in my kitchen. If I make it and everyone likes it, I keep it. If everyone hates it, I recycle the paper. It works.

I copy them by hand onto recipe cards. I always know where they are.
