Every recipe deserves a home.

From handwritten family favorites to new discoveries, save recipes in My Recipes, your personal online recipe library, and keep their stories together.

Save recipes your way

Enter a favorite recipe, save details from a handwritten card, or add a photograph of the original. Keep the recipe and its story together.

Import recipes from the web

Paste a supported recipe URL to bring ingredient and preparation details into your personal recipe library. Review the imported information before saving.

Quick add

Capture the important details when someone shares a recipe with you, then return to add more information later.

AI writing assistant

Get help drafting ingredient lists, instructions and recipe notes. Review AI suggestions against your original recipe before saving.

Recipe photo gallery

Add photographs of the finished dish, preparation steps or a treasured handwritten recipe card. Keep meaningful images connected to each recipe.

Recipe video gallery

Link or embed cooking demonstrations, family memories and other videos that help bring recipes and their stories to life.

Find your saved recipes

Search My Recipes by name, ingredient or category. Find a family favorite or something you saved to try another day.

Online recipe storage

Keep your recipes in your online account rather than relying on a single notebook or device. Sign in to access your personal recipe library.

DISCOVER

Discover more from every recipe.

Explore recipes other members have chosen to share, find helpful cooking information, and discover practical ways to enjoy and share your favorite dishes.

Keep your recipe on screen

Keep your hands on the cooking, not your phone! Turn on the screen-awake option while viewing a recipe to help keep it visible as you cook. Availability depends on your device and browser settings.

Nutrition information

Explore estimated nutrition information for your recipes. Use it as a helpful reference when planning meals. Estimates can vary with ingredients, quantities and preparation.

Recipe cost estimates

Explore estimated recipe costs as a starting point for meal planning and budgeting. Actual costs depend on ingredient choices, quantities and local prices.

Find recipes by ingredient

Have an ingredient you'd like to use? Search for recipes using that ingredient and explore possibilities for your next meal. This is an ingredient-search tool, not an automatic leftover meal planner.

QR Code Potluck Tent Cards

Bringing a dish to a potluck, party or family gathering? Create a printable QR-code tent card to place beside it. Guests can scan the code to open your publicly shared recipe. Choose from two card sizes on a standard 8.5 x 11-inch PDF. Print, fold and share!

Discover new recipes

Explore recipes that members of the Our Recipe Tree community have chosen to share publicly. Find something new to try, discover fresh inspiration and add variety to your recipe routine.

Create a personalized Recipe Book from My Recipes, or organize a Recipe Collection around your family, friends or community. Preserve the recipes and the people behind them.

Create a Recipe Collection

Organize recipes around the people, occasions or traditions that matter to you. Manage your collection yourself or invite family, friends and community members to contribute.

Invite contributors

Invite people to add their favorite recipes to your Recipe Collection. Contributors can participate using a Free account when granted contributor access. Collaboration is optional, and the Collection owner manages the project.

Share recipes in new ways

Share recipes you've chosen to make public using links, email, social media or QR codes. Create printable recipe tent cards so guests can scan shared recipes at potlucks, reunions and gatherings.

Create your Recipe Book

Select recipes directly from My Recipes or from a Recipe Collection, arrange them into a personalized Recipe Book and download an available printable PDF. Arrange physical printing separately.

From saved recipes to a Recipe Book

Start with the recipes you've saved in My Recipes. Select your favorites, arrange them into a personalized Recipe Book and create a downloadable edition when you're ready.

You can also create a book from an organized Recipe Collection. Invite others to contribute if you wish, or work independently. Keep adding recipes and stories over time, and create a new edition when you choose.

Creating Recipe Collections and Recipe Books requires an eligible paid membership. Free members can save unlimited personal recipes and contribute to eligible Recipe Collections when granted access. Our Recipe Tree does not print or ship physical books.

Your recipes remain yours.

The recipes, photographs, videos and personal stories you contribute remain yours. Our Recipe Tree provides tools to save, organize and share your content without claiming ownership of it.

Recipes saved in My Recipes are private by default. You decide when to share them with others, including when contributing to a Recipe Collection.
