Recently Viewed Recipes / Shopping List

Recently Viewed Recipes

This area allows you to create a Shopping List and save recipes for one month or until you clear out your cookies. There are three main areas: Recently Viewed Recipes, Bookmarked Recipes and Shopping List.

When you open a recipe, that recipe is automatically saved to the Recently Viewed Recipe page as long as you have cookies enabled. This list will save a maximum of 20 recipes. When you open recipes beyond that first 20, those newer recipes will be added at the top of the list and recipes at the bottom of the list will be removed.

Bookmarked Recipes

If you clear your cookies regularly, but want to save recipes on a temporary basis, move them from your Recently Viewed Recipes to your Bookmarked Recipes box. Bookmarking a recipe saves it for 30 days. Recently Viewed Recipes are temporarily saved, so if you want to save a recipe permanently, you need to save it to your Recipe Box.

Shopping List

You can create a Shopping list from recipes in the Recently Viewed Recipes or Bookmarked Recipes lists. Move recipes from the Recently Viewed Recipes or Bookmarked list by clicking in the boxes next to those recipes and selecting Add Recipes to your Shopping List in the drop-down menu under the boxes.

Moving Recently Viewed Recipes

To move recipes from the Recently Viewed Recipes to the Bookmarked Recipes box or to the Shopping List, click in the box next to those recipes to select them. You can select up to 10 at a time. Select the appropriate option from the drop-down menu under those boxes. Click on the Go button to move those recipes.

Changing the recipe serving yields on the Shopping List

You can edit the Shopping List by clicking on the Edit link; the link is titled, “Click here to View, Print, Email, or Save your Shopping List.” Use the Edit links to change the serving amount or to add or remove grocery items. You can save the list permanently in your Recipe Box by clicking on the Save button and naming your list. You can find your saved Shopping Lists in My Allrecipes.

Saving Recently Viewed Recipes to the Recipe Box

Select up to 10 recipes that you want to save permanently in your Recipe Box by clicking in the box next to those recipes. Use the drop-down menu to select and save those recipes to your Recipe Box.
