  • I copy & paste recipes I like into a doc in my google drive. Then I sort each doc in a folder (Greek, slow cooker, freezer meal, Mexican, etc). I can use the search bar if I know what recipe I want, or if I have a vague craving for Italian food I can poke through the whole folder to see if anything jumps out.

    When I set the meals for the week I add events to my online calendar: “DINNER: enchilada casserole, Spanish rice” and I include links to the saved recipe in the event description. My calendar is shared online with everyone in the house, so I no longer get “what’s for dinner?” questions all the time.

    I can use my phone or laptop while I cook to access the recipe. I can make changes to the saved recipe easily while I cook, too.

    It’s relatively simple and there are no additional costs once you have internet & a phone/computer.
