I use the Paprika app to keep recipes. You can download them directly from websites (and you can find pretty much every recipe online, even old printed ones). Best part is you can dump the recipe into a grocery list.

I just have a pile in a folder. I thumb through them for inspiration. It is not time consuming.

I do this too, except mine usually sit in a pile or the front pocket of the binder for a while before I get around to putting them in the page protectors and I do a cull at that stage as well if it's something that no longer sounds appealing or that I acknowledge I'm unlikely to ever make.

I use Pinterest to save recipes into similar categories, though I tend to look first at my binder/papers vs. my Pinterest boards.

I’m overwhelmed by the number of recipes I have as bookmarks on every device I own as well as by this very full physical folder of recipes I have printed out or clipped from magazines.

How do you organize this kind of stuff so you actually try new things?

This seems like something I need to get a handle on or stop doing altogether.
