I started out doing what Lifestar and BuddyBeanieBaby did, and my collection soon outran my ability to keep it organized and find the recipes I wanted when I wanted them.
So I went to using a commercial recipe software: Living Cookbook. You can download it and use it for free for about 30 days from
http://www.livingcookbook.com/
Then, if you like it, you can shell out the $30 or so to buy it. I tried out several different recipe software packages, and this one meets my needs the best. It has lots of "bells and whistles" on it, which I seldom use, but it lets you print out one or more recipes at a time into a Word document. If you add the ingredients to the ingredient database as you add recipes, it will automatically calculate the nutritional information for the recipe. Another nice feature is that I can simply highlight, copy and paste recipes from online sources into the program, do their little routine with them, and they get formatted nicely!
My ol' curmudgeon has the same software on his computer. We synchronize our databases from time to time. We tend to enter different kinds of recipes from each other, so being able to exchange our recipes from one to the other is important.
Have fun!
Cheerio!

Is there a way to create a recipe file?
