There are many sites available for Recipes, we can subscribe these as well so that we might aware about new Recipes. I always prefer free Recipes websites like food and supercook.

Allrecipes is generally my go-to, but sometimes I'll browse through buzzfeed lists to get some new ideas or inspiration. I can usually find some crazy stuff there I've never seen before.

One of my favorites is Amy's healthy baking. It's a blog with clean baking recipes with healthier ingredients such as honey instead of refined sugar.

I never stick to the same web site that I get recipes from. I agree, your choices are stellar. I used to use foodnetwork.com as well after they changed their site and added videos I thought that was cool.

I have branched out now, where I look on google and I abolutely have a LOVE for Pinterest. I can do searches for ingredients listed in the recipe and use up what is in my pantry. I ca also see pages after clicking on the recipe picture and find web sites or blogs that they come from. I really like that.

This latest Pinterest seach method is how I got through this past holiday season. What did you do? Did you try out any new placs online?

My go-to cooking website is allrecipes. Although I find most of their meals to be huge portions and not on the healthy side. Thankfully they have a section just for that for those who are looking for some healthier dishes.

My favorite food blog is lanascooking, but I'm biased since she is my wife and I am the chief taste tester... :-)

Just to share on this, my mother was a filipina and she always cook Filipino dishes/meal and the taste was so good when I asked "mom where are you getting your recipes?" she answer "i'm getting it at panlasangpinoy" so that's it hope it helps.

Personally I think videos are better than written recipes. I find it more understandable to actually see how a food is prepared rather than just reading it. Goes to the brain a lot better. Used to be really into Chef John's Foodwishes channel. Gave me a lot of good ideas.

Allrecipes is my favorite. I pretty much immediately go to the top comments and see what they recommend since they're almost always spot on. I've also found some amazing recipes on Confessions of a Confectionista. Her Nutella S'mores Bars recipe is the best one I've found.
