How do you organize your recipes? Maybe you have them on your phone, or stuffed in a drawer somewhere; if you’re like me, you have a stack of old, stained cookbooks with sticky notes inside.

None of these methods are ideal for organizing recipes. Digital can always fail, as phones can die or break with no way to retrieve your files. Unprotected sheets of paper can tear and get lost, and flipping through cookbooks of recipes you’ll never use just to find a single one is a waste of time and energy.

I found that the best way to both condense and protect recipes is with a recipe binder and page protectors. You can rest assured knowing your info will be spill and tear-proof. You’ll never have to skim through recipes you will never use, and you can rearrange pages and dividers exactly how you like them.

We’ve made 25 free printable 3×5 recipe cards to get you started on creating a recipe organization system, meant to be used inside UniKeep Mini Binders with 3×5 pocketed mini page protectors.

There are 25 fun designs to choose from and if you’d like to change the color, simply import the file into an editor and play around with the hue and saturation.

Where to Find a Mini 3 Ring Binder

Before you head to Staples or Michael’s for a mini 3 ring binder, have you heard of UniKeep mini binders?

They are perfect for organizing recipes because, unlike traditional binders, they are made of 100% polypropylene, making them easy to wipe clean if any spills or kitchen messes happen.

Pair that with some 3×5 mini page protectors and your recipes are kept completely safe from stains, tears, and other damage.

The 1.5-inch variety of UniKeep mini binders come with clear outer overlays, too, meaning you could customize the cover. You could have one binder for breakfast, one for lunch, one for dinner, one for appetizers…Whatever you can imagine!
