MyRecipeBook.com was founded in 2003 by Kira Matrejek (that's me). I created this site for my mom Cindy, so she wouldn't have to hunt through books or index cards or scroll through word documents searching for her recipes. I thought that was a hassle and wanted to make a better system for her to use, so MyRecipeBook was born. Now me and my mom and thousands of other people around the world use the site to save and share our recipes!
It's always been a pretty simple idea: a database of your recipes, with fields for ingredients, instructions and notes, a link for a photo, and room for nutrition info (which I needed when I was dieting). I've added some new features like recipe tags, bookmarks, and photo uploading, and more features are in the works.
Mom likes to use her iPad these days when she's in the kitchen. MyRecipeBook.com doesn't have an iPad app yet (we're not related to any existing or former "MyRecipeBook" apps on the App Store)... but I am working on one and hope to have it out soon. Join the mailing list if you'd like me to e-mail you when it's ready!
Have a question or a suggestion for the site?
