MyRecipes Makes It So Easy to Like, Save, and Organize All of Your Favorite Real Simple Recipes—Here’s How to Get Started

If you’re tired of digging through old emails, browser bookmarks, and texts from friends to find your favorite Real Simple recipes, we’ve got some great news for you! We’ve just launched MyRecipes—a new digital recipe box that allows you to easily save and store recipes for your favorite RS dishes in one place. With MyRecipes, you’ll be able to sift through everything from healthy breakfast ideas to easy dinner options, and pick out your favorite dishes (or those you’d like to try) along the way. Ready to try out MyRecipes for yourself? Here’s what you need to know.

How to Use MyRecipes

To take advantage of all the tantalizing RS dishes MyRecipes has to offer, you’ll need to start by creating an account, which you can do with an email address. If you’d rather not provide an email address, you can also link your MyRecipes account to your Facebook or Google accounts. 

Once your account has been created, you can start saving recipes right away. In addition to the latest recipes from Real Simple, you’ll also find equally delicious recipes from other leading brands like EatingWell, Food & Wine, Southern Living, and Better Homes & Gardens, which you can mix and match into your personalized recipe collections.

As you’ll see once you sign into MyRecipes, you’re greeted by an array of new dishes. Once you spot a recipe you like, click on it to go to the recipe page, complete with a full list of ingredients and step-by-step instructions. 

If you prefer browsing directly on RealSimple.com, simply click the save icon below the author’s name on any recipe page (like this One-Pot Miso Mushroom Pasta or a bowl of Hearty Black Bean Chili) to save it for later. A pop-up will guide you to log into MyRecipes, letting you save the recipe in the collection of your choice—”Keepers”, “Want to Try”, or “Weeknight Ideas”—or you can save it to a new collection that you have the power to create and name.

We encourage you to peruse our holiday appetizer recipes and Christmas cookie roundup in order to build a personalized recipe collection that will help get you through the busy holiday season, or take a peek at our quick and easy family dinner recipes gallery, so you’ll never again struggle with what to make for dinner.

Our favorite thing about MyRecipes is that it’s ever-evolving, with more dishes to choose from every day. Additionally, new features that will make meal planning even easier are expected to roll out in the coming months. In the meantime, feel free to get acquainted and find some new favorite recipes!
