Here is my very low-tech suggestion for storing your recipes:  I keep my recipes in plastic protectors from Staples, and store them in two binders, one for entrees and one for desserts.  This way, I can just pull out a recipe and take it into the kitchen, and the pages are protected.  Since I have so many recipes, I have divided the entrée binder into categories, like chicken and fish.  It’s easier than keeping old cooking magazines around and trying to find a recipe you might like.

This is a great Idea. I have been doing this for awhile myself, I have sections for breads, soup and sanwiches, desserts, cakes & Muffins, veggies and sides. I make a grocery list for two weeks and file it to be used again. I also keep a list of things in my pantry and refrigerators and freezers. This helps me budget and save money,.

I use this same organization system and it works great. I also organize my Take Out menus this way!
