I know I am a bit of a Luddite regarding some technologies. Before Genius Kitchen when it was Food.com I used to be able to save a recipe into my recipe box and retrieve it with the list of ingredients and cooking instruction written out as if I were pulling out a hard recipe card. If I needed additional instruction then I could go back into the active page for the recipe for the additional info. I am certainly able to save a recipe in the new app but I am not finding the same simplicity of looking in my saved file and just pulling up the so called recipe card. I may be completely misusing the app without even knowing it. Sorry if what I am missing is super intuitive and I am overlooking it. Thank you1Replies 2
