LPT: When reading a recipe online go straight to "Print Recipe"

Submitted by downtownhobo t3_1148sfu in LifeProTips

It will give give just the list of ingredients and the cooking directions on a single white page. If needed can use Print to PDF feature to download it.

No ads inserted in every paragraph, no pop ups with social media buttons, and no long story about how the kids love this family recipe on Tuesday nights after practice and how is been changed since good old grandma use to make it during the great depression.

Love is the real secret ingredient, although I'm not sure where it goes in the nutrition facts.

I just stopped dealing with shitty food blogs and stick to Food Network Kitchen. It's become such a versatile app to include straight-to-the-point recipes, meal planning, food lists, and even cooking classes. You can also go to a recipe, check the items you need and add them to a grocery list. You can then click a button and it will take you to the store of your choosing to start selecting them for pick-up/delivery. It's all entirely free now too.

With over 100,000 recipes, there is rarely a time I can't find a dish I'm looking to make or something that interests me. In the off chance I do come across something on a blog site I want to try, I can import it into Food Network with the URL and it will just strip it down to the recipe.
