How to view, create, edit, search, and delete your recipes

Browsing Your Recipes

Navigate to My Recipes from the sidebar to see all your saved recipes. Recipes are shown as cards with a photo, title, and key details.

Use the search bar at the top to find recipes by name, ingredient, or tag.

Viewing a Recipe

Click any recipe card to open the full detail view. You'll see:

  • Ingredients list with quantities and units — grouped by section for multi-component recipes (e.g., "Salad" and "Dressing")
  • Step-by-step instructions
  • Notes and source information
  • Tags for easy categorization

Creating a Recipe Manually

  1. Click Add Recipe on the My Recipes page
  2. Choose Create Manually
  3. Fill in the title, ingredients, instructions, and any other details
  4. Click Save Recipe

Editing a Recipe

Open any recipe and click the Edit button (pencil icon). You can modify:

  • Title, description, and servings
  • Ingredients (name, quantity, unit, notes) — organized into named sections for multi-component recipes
  • Instructions (add, reorder, or delete steps)
  • Tags and recipe collection
  • Recipe photo

Changes are saved when you click Save.

Tagging Recipes

Tags help you organize and find recipes faster. On the recipe detail or edit page, click the tag area to add or remove tags. Create any tag that makes sense for you — e.g., weeknight, vegetarian, slow cooker.

Deleting a Recipe

Open the recipe, click Edit, then scroll to the bottom and click Delete Recipe. This action is permanent.

Sharing a Recipe

You can share any recipe with a public link — no account required for the recipient. See Sharing & Kitchens for details.
