Exploring Recipes
The first thing you'll see on Allrecipes is your home feed–there you'll find the Recipe of the Day, trending recipes, recipes based on the cooks you follow, and recipes based on your Tastes and other saved recipes in your Favorites.
To find recipes beyond your feed, select Explore on the navigation bar.
You can explore our curated collections,
or find new recipes by browsing through the different recipe categories.
Recipe Categories and Sub-Categories
Each recipe category is broken down into top sub-categories.
Usually, these sub-categories classify the recipes as types of dishes (beef, chicken, burgers, quick & easy, etc.).
Recipe Search
Allrecipes wants to make it as easy as possible for you to find what you are looking for so we have created several ways to search for recipes to ensure that you do! You can use the search field at the top of any page to perform any of the searches listed below.
Search
Enter your search terms into the search bar at the top of any page.
Ingredient Search
Search for recipes that contain the ingredients you want! Choose Explore at the top of any page, then select Search by Ingredient. You can enter up to four ingredients that you would like to include and up to four ingredients you would like to exclude. Be sure to click the plus or minus icon after typing each ingredient, then hit Search.
Recipes for Special Dietary Requirements and Healthy Cooking
Allrecipes offers recipe collections for every special diet and ways to filter your search for recipes that will fit your lifestyle.
For example, select Explore from the navigation bar at the top of the page and scroll to Diet & Health. Choose Healthy for recipe collections carefully chosen by the Allrecipes team for special diets and healthy lifestyles.
Recipe of the Day
Each section of Allrecipes—including the homepage, has a daily recipe. To see these, navigate to the recipe collections by choosing the collection in the Browse menu drop-down options. You can view the Recipe of the Day for sub-collections as well. For example, if you select Breakfast and Brunch recipes, you can then see the Recipe of the Day for the sub-collections of Breakfast Eggs, Breakfast Drinks, and Pancakes. Eat up!
