Easy Way to Make Your Recipes Printable

June 12, 2013 by Heather Carter 6 Comments

I’m so excited about this post because I have been wanting to make my recipes printable for a long time now. But, I haven’t liked any of the choices out there for Blogger. I learned about Google Sites from Ellen at Confessions of an Overworked Mom. Then more recently I saw that my friend, Jen over at “Yummy. Healthy. Easy.” was also using Google Sites. I emailed Jen and asked how she likes it and she said she “Loves it“! So, I decided to setup my Google Site for my printable recipes. Today I’ll show you just how easy it is…well, since I learned from Ellen, I’m going to send you over to her post on “How to make your recipe printable” where you’ll see her easy step by step process.

AND setting up a Google Site is FREE!

Below is a peek at my Google Site home page, you can see my printable recipes on the left. It’s user friendly and so easy to find your favorite recipes!

      Hi Lauren, the “How to” link is at the top of this post in brown: “How to make your recipe printable.” I noticed you use Ziplist, I think you can make your recipes printable through that plugin, right? But you can go to Google Sites: https://sites.google.com/ to create a new site and start making your recipes printable there too. I hope this helps and thank you for stopping by My Sweet Mission. ~Heather
