How to fill it in

  1. Open the PDF in a reader that supports forms. Desktop PDF readers and most browser and phone viewers do.
  2. Click into the line next to Recipe and type the name. Tab moves to From, Serves, Prep and Cook.
  3. Ingredients and Directions are multi-line boxes. Press Enter for each new item or step.
  4. Use Save As with the recipe name (for example cornbread.pdf) so the blank file stays blank for the next recipe.
  5. Print at Actual size / 100%, either directly on 4x6 card stock or on letter paper, then trim.

Running out of room? Write "continued on back" at the end of the directions and keep going on page 2. You can also shorten the steps using the tips in how to write a recipe card.
