Ever since I started cooking for a family, I've been gathering recipes. After a few years of sticking every random thing I'd collected in a binder, I decided it was time to organize it all in a more logical way so I could find what I needed without sifting through everything every time.
After the seasonal sections there are sections for Salads, Desserts, Sauces and Dressings. You can always add a section for whatever you need. And make sure to use page protectors (if it weren't for those, most of the pages would be unreadable by now).
Some of the recipes, as you can see, are handwritten or printed off the Internet:
Others were torn from magazines or ones I've typed up:
Oh...and, one thing you must keep handy for those times you just don't want to cook. Inside the pocket of the front cover:
The first four sections of the binder are based on seasons. I love having recipes organized this way. Our eating and cooking habits really do vary by the season, so this has been a great tool to
remember what's worked well and when. The plan is to have at least 15 seasonal recipes for each one (main dishes).
