How to Save Your Own Favorite Recipes

We offer a Recipe Collections tutorial to guide you through saving favorites. The tool is intuitive, and the tutorial makes it even faster to organize the recipes you use most.

Create an Account and Save Recipes

Create a free account to start saving recipes to your personal collection. Once registered, you can quickly add recipes you love for easy access later.

Save and Customize Weekly Meal Plan

After creating your account, save this meal plan to your recipe collection. You can easily swap any recipe for another favorite if you’d prefer a different dish on a given night. Customizing your weekly plan lets you tailor meals to schedules, tastes, and dietary needs.

Shopping Lists

When your meal plan is set, generate a shopping list from your saved recipes by using the shopping cart icon. Ensure each recipe you plan to prepare is checked, then click the cart to build the list. You can edit, save, share, print, or regenerate the list as needed — a simple way to streamline grocery shopping and avoid last-minute trips.
