2023 recipe notebook

Published on March 3, 2023
How am I organizing my recipes in OneNote? I have been dumping recipes into my OneNote notebooks since 2010 and I thought it was time to better organize them into a more traditional looking and functioning recipe book. While OneNote has a great search feature, I thought it would be better to have them all in one place rather than scattered throughout various notebooks. Come check it out.
Hi, I’m Crystal. Welcome to a Crystal Clear Life where we talk about planning, organizing and living a more simplified life. I use Microsoft OneNote 365 to create functional and decorative planners and notebooks to help keep my life organized. OneNote is awesome because it crosses all platforms so I can use it on my desktop PC, my iPad and my Android phone. That way I am never without my planner! Hope you enjoy.

Recipe organizing is always fun. 😊 Do you have a favorite recipe that you could share? Leave me a comment to share the recipe or link. Thanks for watching .

I have way too many cookbooks, especially for someone who doesn't like to cook. And I would like to reduce that amount. OneNote would indeed be a good option, except for one thing. The screen of my phone is too small for me to use and I don't own a tablet. But it sure is something to keep in mind for the future. Thank you for the video. One of my favorite cakes is Rüeblitorte. One of the ingredients is carrots, which in Swiss German we call Rüebli.

I have a whole other system, never got used to OneNote, but still your videos are so calm, clear, sincere and just fun to watch... also of course I learn a lot that I can use, you always have great ideas. Thank you so much for your videos!

[@CrystalClearLife]

Wow, thank you! You are too kind.

[@amandagrose1195]

[@CrystalClearLife]

Let me know how yours goes!

[@Linda-we6en]

I love this! Thank you for the way you explain things and how well you show the steps. I'm excited to get my recipes organized in OneNote. 😊

[@CrystalClearLife]

You are so welcome!

I spent a wet miserable day running all of my loose recipes and the ones in folders and clear files through my scanner, creating one large PDF file. From there I am slowly but surely sending each page to its correct spot in my Recipe notebook.

[@CrystalClearLife]

Thanks for sharing! 🌝 I know you will love it.

I have been wanting to digitize recipes. All my ringbinders are tooooo much. I take a sheet out and it doesn't get put back in. I will begin based on your clear directions. Also I am going to see if I can use Tags. I have interests in different types of diets, such as paleo. With tags I am hoping to be able to search for "paleo" in my salad (for example) section.

[@CrystalClearLife]

That's a great idea! Let me know how it works for you.

[@samanthaohanlon1626]

Hi Crystal, my One Note isn't looking like yours. I'm so confused and have no idea where to start.

[@CrystalClearLife]

You maybe using the web version or an old windows 10 version. The desktop version also allows for notebook sections and pages to all be on the side in a more vertical format. OneNote is available for free from Microsoft or it is included if you own Microsoft 365. Hope this helps.

@@CrystalClearLife I use a Mac

[@CrystalClearLife]

@@64titch unfortunately the only apple products I own are an iPad gen 7 and apple pencil 1st generation. But OneNote works on the iPad and should work on a Mac. I'm sorry I can't be of more help with this platform.

@@CrystalClearLife thank you
