Got this for a gift for my future daughter in law. She absolutely loved it! Spent the entire time at our home at Christmas..sorting recipes, gathering more & filing them away! It was HUGE hit!

These refills are wonderful!
They fit the 5x7 cards perfectly, although i wish there was an easier way to grab the cards out, like maybe a little cut out on top. I think I could probably do that very easily with some scissors. Great product otherwise.

card file book
It is nice to file fresh rewritten recipe cards in a brand new book. This is beautiful and can't be found anywhere that I have looked. I am enjoying filling this book up with the matching cards.

good, not perfect
Nice cover, and has good organization potential with room for expansion. I just wish the width of the binder was smaller ... so it would fit more easily on a shelf like a more traditional book does. I also wish the dividers and inner surfaces were laminated or plastic. Spills and wet hands could cause warping. The recipes would be protected, but not the inside of the binder.

Perfect Recipe Organizer!
This product was so perfect, I had to write my very first review! It came with both 5x7 and 8 1/2 x 11 plastic sleeves. When I purchased, I read many of the reviews and one of the concerns was buying the replacement 8 1/2 x 11 sleeves from the manufacturer because they didn't quite fit. The sleeves that come with initial purchase fit perfect. I bought extra 8 1/2 x 11 plastic sleeves for a standard 8 1/2x11 notebook from Staples. Works great!
I recommend this product for anyone who loves to cook and collects recipes!

Great product
This is a high quality product and I really am enjoying it. The binding and pages are substanial and the recipe sheets are all covered w/plastic which will be great for handling recipes when I'm cooking. I would have liked to get a few more inserts in the book - perhaps another 10 total sheets between the 1/2 and full page dividers. Overall, this is an excellent recipe holder.

Quality book
This is a quality binder! Just what I was looking for to collect our family favorites! 8 1/2 x 11 page protectors fit so additional pages can be added without purchasing a special size. It includes full size pages, and some sleeves with 4x6 recipe cards, and an envelope to stash clippings until they can be mounted or copied.

Great cookbook for keeping family recipes
We had received a great blank/write-in cookbook for as a wedding present about 6 years ago and we use it all the time. Our families organized an effort to collect recipes from all of our extended family members, and write them in this cookbook to give to us to carry on through the next generation. It was used in our house almost weekly. We began to use it for all our recipes too. Before you know there are 100 pages of gold in that book. Then in November the plastic spine started to crack away and become brittle.
You wouldn't believe how hard it is to find a write-in cookbook. I went to Borders, Barnes & Noble, Wal-Mart, Target, Meijer, and just about every other book/bix box retail store in the Central Indiana market. Nothing. Either we hoosiers don't like to cook or this just isn't something people do. Well for those of you who do, I am telling you to buy this cookbook. I should've come to Amazon first. I learned my lesson and will from now on. We received in good time for Christmas and have replaced our original. The spine is metal, not plastic, so it probably won't break. The pages are good quality thickness and have plenty of room for each recipe. The organization of the book is good too. Now I don't have to flip though 100+ recipes to find my Dad's famous Egg Nog, my Mom's Chinese Red Pork, or my cousin's famous Seattle Seagull (don't ask - not really seagull).
I highly recommend this for anyone who likes to cook, and wants to keep their recipes in the family for generations to come.

too much copywork
I am returning this book. I wanted one that recipes could be inserted into; guess I misunderstood what this book offers. It just has pages to copy recipes onto.

Wonderful Gift to yourself or others.
I bought this book because I was keeping my recipes in a notebook. There isn't a lot of room at the top for the ingredient list but if you write small you can fit most of it in. There are chapters and each chapter has about 20 pages. So it is plenty of room for recipes. I love this book. I also read other reviews where people recieved or gave this book as a wedding gift. I would consider giving this to someone I know. Thanks.

Great gift idea!
I've given this book several times as wedding gifts, and housewarming gifts, and each time my friends have loved it. The one I have I wouldn't do without, no more cards and pieces of paper stuck in a file box or another cook book where I couldn't easily put my hands on them when I wanted them. Now they are organized and easy to find. Thank you!

Is a recipe binder/book better than a recipe box?
Jan 02, 2007 by krimson.suicide | Posted in Cooking & Recipes
I would like to know what you think would be better. A recipe box, or book (sort of thing in a binder)
Its going as a present for a boy.
Binder is the thumbs up, that's what I use. My trick is, well just like in the other years when they made Albums and you only liked one or two songs, I take my recipe books, scan the recipes I want and print them out and into the binder, tab the sections and you're looking is easy

I think the binder /book.
Starfish | Jan 02, 2007
For a boy, the best bet is probably the book/binder. I don't know your relation to the boy, but if you have cooked for him (mother, girlfriend, etc), this is a really nice idea.... Get one of those photo binders that have the peel back sticky pages. Print off some of his favorite home cooked recipies, and place inside. The sticky covers provides a surface that can be easily cleaned, and a binder can be stood up for convienence while cooking. This way, when he finds new receipes he likes, he can simply peel back a page and stick it in the book. No fuss--guys tend to like that. If you are looking for one that is already filled with receipes try the Test Kitchen one. It runs about $40, but every question you can have about cooking is answered and there are tons of receipes.
KKingS | Jan 02, 2007
both are a great idea. Both can be expanded when new recipes are found. I htink my preference would be the binder.

Help!! I want a really cute recipe binder one that I can get refills for without a hassle.?
Apr 28, 2006 by Becky | Posted in Cooking & Recipes
also one that will last
Hey here is an idea that you may not have thought of before. Get a Rolodex flip file address keeper and use the backs of all the cards. Refills of Rolodex cards are readily available. They may not be as cheap as regular 3x5 index cards. The alphabetizing cards can be used backwards to categorize recipes however you want to. You can rearrange them anytime you want, you can add and remove to change your collection as your needs and tastes change. You can even carry a few cards in your purse so that when you are in a waiting room and see a recipe you want to try, you can jot them down and add them when you get home.
You would want to use this for alllll your fav recipes out of other cookbooks, simply copy them down and keep the Rolodex on the counter, store your books away. I would also jot down the name of dishes you know how to make without a recipe because then you can use the cards as a brainstorming tool when you are planning your menus. And you might start each category in your system with a list of things to do with one single ingredient (fav hamburger dishes) or what kinds of things to do for a certain situation such as kids favs, good for potluck, super easy. You might have a category of skills that you don't remember time to time. The formula for rice to water. How to debone a chicken or filet a fish. Where is the punchbowl. How to sharpen a knife. For each recipe you might start jotting down good things to serve with it.
So as you can see, you can turn it into as much of an information resource as you want, aside from recipes, and it would all be at your fingertips on the counter or in the front cabinet to take out when you need it. This system would save a lot of space even if you grow into another Rolodex keeper because unlike cookbooks, this would be a personalized collection of recipes that YOU use. Kind of like a greatest hits album or a mix CD that you burned with YOUR fav songs from other CDs.
When the time comes that your collection spills over from ONE Rolodex file you can start dividing them into two in a way that makes sense to you. Cooking and baking, sweet and savory, meats and veggies, indoor and outdoor, everyday and holiday/large groups, spring/summer and fall/winter. It would totally be YOUR system.
As for everyday use, you can pull them out to menu plan, keeping that week's out for use, or to make your grocery list, or whatever. But what I would do is just leave the keeper on the counter, don't stuff it so full (so it stays open at the recipe you select), and then when you flip to the recipe you want to use, read it from there, just out of the workspace so it doesn't get splatters of food on it...then you don't have to take it out and put it back, you don't have to touch it with foody hands.
I hope this helps you! I thought it was a great idea when I saw it in an organizing book. Personally, I don't have use for it because I don't cook much with recipes.

When adding egg, as a binder, to a recipe such as meatloaf, is it better to beat or not beat the egg and why?
Apr 29, 2006 by jpar4golf | Posted in Cooking & Recipes
Beat it. Because when eggs cook they form microscopic hooks that bind together. These hooks are not found in yolks, so if you want the benefit of the yolk in your meat loaf beating will unhook the whites and blend the yolks in making it ready to hold your meat together.
And always remember, don't let your meat loaf.

I have my recipes in a three ring binder with those clear page protector in it, I like them because I can put the recipes in there and they stay clean .. You can always add more page p-protectors as needed and you can divide the into categories.
