This is exciting news! Most bloggers on Blogspot have never had a cool recipe card print-out. Wordpress has all of the nice plug-ins. We now have The Recipes Generator
I have looked high and low trying to find a gadget or code for Blogger on Blogspot. I have used Print Friendly, Google Sites for printables, Recipage and Key Ingredient.
This new one works perfectly! How exciting is that?
Well, look no further fellow Bloggers. We have arrived!
Type in all of the recipe information and don't forget to add your photo url. When you are finished adding everything, click preview. You will see your recipe on preview form.
After previewing it, now you click CHOOSE THE STYLE.
Once you choose the style you like, then you copy and paste the html code in the HTML part of your post.
Here is what it looks like once you paste the HTML code. Isn't this a nice looking recipe printout?
I am so excited about this! Finally bloggers can have an awesome recipe format for printing. It is easy to use.

Linda,
ReplyDeleteHow do you get to The Recipe Whiz? Is it an app you add to your blogger layout? Do you go outside your blog to an address on the internet?

This is great to know, Linda! Thank you so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLinda, you are the smartest one! What a great idea! You're the best, my friend.
ReplyDeleteBe a sweetie,

Thanks for sharing Linda! I am thrilled to now be able to add this to my blog for all the recipes we share!!
ReplyDeleteYou have made my birthday, m'dear!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, Linda! I don't know if I can figure it out, but it sure would be nice!
ReplyDeleteThis is great. I am going to see if I can do it. Thanks! sheila
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat feature for blogger blogs!
ReplyDeleteI'll give it a whirl! Thanks Linda.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds fantastic, Linda! I sure can use it as I usually post a recipe in each one (or at least every other one) of my post. You are brilliant!
ReplyDeletejane
Thank you Linda-
ReplyDeleteI am excited!
Linda I can't thank you enough for this. I'm so excited.
ReplyDeleteThis is a fabulous idea dear Linda! You are such a wiz, I am envious, wish I was a fourth as savvy as you this way I would figure out "WHY MY NEW POST'S THUMBNAIL DOESN'T APPEAR FOR THE LAST 2 HOURS!" Do you know? Maybe you can explain if this is happened before, even to you?
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing.

ReplyDeleteHi Linda, you are so talented, great post. Happy Mother's Day and Cinco de Mayo to you!

Thank you so much. It is very helpfull.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this! I'm off to try it out!
ReplyDeleteHi Linda! I was using this site for changing my blog posts over to being printable...but now the site isn't working. Are you having the same issue? Thanks! Any insight you have would be fabulous!
ReplyDeleteHi Carol, it tried it recently and it is still working. Actually there is a better Recipes generator now.
DeleteMy friend designed it, when I told him Blogger needed a similar recipe format like WP.

I just purchased this, I did a test and it looked great. Just waiting to get my log-in. Thank you for sharing
DeleteHi, Linda! Well, now... this is AWESOME! I've searched the interwebs, high and low and tried just about every one of the other options that you mentioned trying yourself, but none of them ever turned out to be what I wanted (or needed) them to be. I'd reached the point recently, where after many, many years using the Blogger platform, I was giving some serious thought to making the old switch-a-roo to WordPress - simply to have the option to use one of their nifty little recipe plugins. But now, you've come along like the fairy blogmother, with this fantastic little gem and saved the day! Thank You SO much for finding and sharing this, Linda! I can not wait to give it a whirl! Wish me luck and have an amazing week! ~Mary
ReplyDeletePS: I just noticed Carol (above) said she had a problem with the site not working when she tried it recently, but I'm going to cross my fingers and go for it! I've been waiting far too long for something like this, to not go and at least give it the old college try. Oh, and in case I haven't already said it, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! I'll be sure to stop back and let you know whether or not I have the same problem that Carol did :~)
Linda, Thank you so much. I am hoping you can help with two questions: how do you insert affiliate links into the Recipe Wiz?? And, how do you insert other links? That would be such a HUGE help if you know how to do those two things. Alyssa
ReplyDeleteHi Alyssa, actually there is something better now for recipes. It is the FREE Recipes Generator.Recipes Generator
DeleteI know this post is almost two years old but you should do an update for this. I went to the Recipe Generator website and it is not free... Or am I doing something wrong?
ReplyDeleteSame issue here. I don't think it's free anymore.
DeleteYes, it isn't free anymore. It is $3.00 a month.
DeleteThanks for this. I just bought it now from this post's recommendation.
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome. Finally a recipe generator for Blogger. He is always adding new features too.
DeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI can't upload a picture
Can you tell me exactly what the issue is. Did you upload a photo to your blog and grab the url for the photo?
DeleteThank you so much for sharing this!!!

Good recipe blog.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda great article. I was actually looking for something like a recipe generator, but still glad I stumbled on this. I've been using one called recipegenerators https://recipegenerators.com. It's now my go to. I tried to stump it with only two ingredients I had in the fridge and pantry and it made a recipe and it actually tasted great. It's actually amazing as it seems to not just get canned recipes from the web but actually uses AI to come up with recipes based on ingredients you have on hand. I use it all the time now and it's free.
ReplyDeletethank you!
