Recipes
A collection of paper recipes which were collected and shared with me by family members.
When I was trying to figure out a format for this page, one of the page suggestions was an online menu. I thought that it was pretty clever, so I decided to play around with it.
On this page, I’m going to post a collection of recipes which were collected in the past few decades (with many of them coming from the 80’s and 90’s) and given to me by family. I didn’t want these getting lost, so I’m scanning them to have an electronic back up as well as share them with everyone. I’ve included attributes for those which had provided them but certain recipes don’t state the author (if you know who they are please let me know!).
I have not tried all of them but now that I am going through them, some of the recipes look very interesting and easy to prepare and modify. I’m going to see if I can try to be creative with the descriptions for the dishes (it’s a lot harder than it looks so kudos to those who write these!) I’ll try to update this page frequently since the recipe cards have been set up and organized already. Hope you enjoy and happy cooking!
