Nice to meet you vacox. Can you highlight your recipe and then hit print selected text and get it that way?

Thanks, Dissie! Nice to meet you. I can highlight the text to print, but formatting is messed up. I just spent the evening saving the recipes to my computer. Even though I can't print them, I can view them on the computer. No more food.com for me!

Vacox, now your mission is to get them all posted to Recipezazz! Glad you at least got them on your computer!

I was able to print a recipe but it took forever to find the recipe. I am trying to post some of my recipes from food.com to this site - but it's a long process.

I only went to food.com ages ago to look for recipes I never joined because to me it was always felt like a stone cold atmosphere and nothing was user-friendly at all, now with all those terrible changes it's even worse. I'll be waiting anxiously to see your recipes Vanessa :)

I went on there today to try and find a Blueberry Buckle recipe because I was making it for the Mother's Day Luncheon we are having tomorrow. I couldn't find it on the Better Homes &Gardens site, Pinterest had too many different variations. But I know it was posted on Food.com under the very distinctive name Blueberry Boy Bait, I know it is the same recipe as the BH&G, because I printed it and then compared. When the page loaded I was like WTF, what happened to the design? When I did the search it came up with a different recipe, but thankfully I had the ingredient amounts written out in my Carering Book.

It really is a mess over there. My cookbooks are all mixed up and duplicated and all over the place...Can't even find recipes by numbers any more. You have to know the exact name. I had some recipes marked down to try or I wanted to try again but I made the mistake of just marking the recipe number and what the recipe was...only to find out they don't use numbers any more. I'll have to start transferring my recipes I have there and put them here. But I would also like to print out the ones that I have saved. It will be a task to do on a rainy day....

Hi Vacox and all the others here on this post! :-H

I always found the features on that site to be broken, nothing worked and now I am completely lost, at one time they were a wonderful food site now what a mess :!:
