      An easy way is to print and select .pdf file rather than printer. Then just save to folder.

        No more cookbooks ever? I loved the books I have every one. I would like to suggest bringing back new books, or a collection of recipe cards, that we an continue to collect.

    I simply copy and paste any desired recipes to a word doc. which is then saved in my email, file: RECIPES so I can access them where ever I am. I am a gypsy and have a variety of homes… you can also change the font and shrink to the best size for you that way.

    Do you need to remove the stretch fit lid on the ceramic pot before
    placing it in the inner pot to cook the salmon and green bean recipe?
    As always, you are very confusing with the One Pot recipes.
