I have 2 matching nice 3 ring binder notebooks that I put y recipes in. I have dividers between all the categories. Each time I have a new recipe I put it into a protective sleeve and store it in my notebook. The protective sheets keep splatters from destroying my recipes or making them look messy.

I have one notebook with dessert, cookies and holiday recipes and the other has all the other dividers for main dishes, veggies, fruits, soups, breads, drinks, sauces, breakfast etc…
