Organise and Plan on Cookidoo®

Find out how to bookmark recipes and collections, create your personal collections, share recipes, and organise with My Week and Shopping List.

Organise your Recipes

With so many amazing recipes available on Cookidoo®, you’re spoiled for choice, which can sometimes make decision-making and meal planning a little challenging. Staying organised can make it easier to plan your meals and keep track of your favourite recipes. Cookidoo® makes this simple by letting you bookmark your favourite recipes and create your own personal recipe collections.

Add to Bookmarks

Bookmarking a recipe makes it easily accessible in the 'My Recipes' section in the top of the screen. To do this, simply click on the three dots and choose 'Bookmark' from the list that appears.

After you've done that, you can visit the 'My Recipes' section anytime to find your saved recipe.

Add to a Recipe List

Another useful way to organise your recipes is by creating your own themed groups. The process is similar to adding bookmarks: select a recipe, open the available options and, instead of adding it to your bookmarks, select Add to Recipe List.

Creating your own recipe lists can be useful when family members have different preferences or dietary requirements. For example, if you have a young child at home, you could gather recipes they enjoy in one list. Or, if you're hosting a dinner party, you can group all the recipes you plan to cook for the occasion into a collection called Party.

Organise your Week

Want to save time and money while enjoying a varied menu?

Planning your meals for the week can help you organise your cooking and make use of the ingredients you already have. It can also help you plan your shopping list around the meals you intend to prepare.

  3. To move a recipe to another day, click on the three dots next to the recipe in My Week and select the new day.
  4. Click on the calendar symbol at the top of the weekly planner to view recipes planned for previous weeks.
  5. Click on the three-stripes symbol to view recipes planned for today and upcoming days.
