Tackle It Tuesday: Updated Recipe Book

Jump to Comments

I am also linking this post to Organizing Junkie’s Recipe Round-Up. Check here for more ideas about organizing your recipes.

I mentioned in an earlier tackle that I made up a scrapbook-style recipe book for recipes that I clip from magazines or print off from the computer, etc. It was getting to be too much for the notebook I had it in:

For a long time I’ve been wanting to divide it into two notebooks: one for main dishes and side dishes, the other for “extras” — appetizers, desserts, breads, etc. I also wanted to subdivide the broader categories, from “Main Dishes” into “Ground Meat,” “Chicken,” “Ham,” etc. Since I don’t have an index, it will be easier to find what I am looking for that way, plus it will keep the little divider pockets from getting too stuffed (I put new recipes in the divider pockets, then after trying them put them into the scrapbook. That’s the plan, anyway. ) I pulled all of that out this evening to work on while watching TV with the family.

So here’s a little glimpse of the new notebook of “extras.”
