Is this more like what you're looking for? It allows you to input your own recipes as well as those from blogs, cookbooks, etc.
The best I've found is Recipe Keeper . It allows you to import recipes from most websites and allows you to search by ingredients. I haven't come across a website it won't auto-import the recipe from, so finding new recipes is easy!
It's free unless you want to sync your recipes across more than one device.
I don't like having to store cookbooks or cooking magazines. I prefer getting them from the library or a friend, finding the recipes I can use, and returning them. Or finding recipes on the internet and then adjusting the as needed.
Not to sound like an ad, but I have this app on my tablet and computer called "Recipe Keeper." Every time I see a recipe I just add it to this app and now I don't have to keep cookbooks or printouts or bookmarks on my computer. No more extra space for cookbooks. no more trying to remember which cookbook the recipe is in, or sifting through printouts, etc. It's an easily searchable database. It's wonderful!
For under $10 (a one time fee, not a subscription, no ads) it was a game changer for me. The day they take it away or start throwing in ads or monthly subscription fees I'll cry.

I'm certain though there are many that do this. Also I may have used the scrape to >!get around nyt cooking paywalls fyi!<
Recipe Keeper is what I've been using for a few years already. It seems similar to Paprika that it syncs to all platforms (windows/iOS/android). I believe it started on windows which is where I was at the time, and the app has developed nicely over the years.
Try the app "recipe keeper" it's genuinely the most useful app i have. You can paste a link in the app and it will automatically find the ingredients list, the description and relevant pictures.
Hands down the best recipe app out there.

Do you want a recipe app with built in recipes, or an app that can import website recipes?
I import website recipes and I use Recipe Keeper. Cheap time fee (for storing over 20 recipes), can import from websites, nice design.
I just peruse /r/EatCheapAndHealthy and when I find a recipe I like I import it. Or just search the web of I want a particular meal.

i love cooking; cook about 85-90% of everything we eat, in fact.
i have that problem occasionally. i'm a big believer we have limitations to our will power. consider this article. my solution is stock meals and automating as much of life as i can and to have solid, consistent routines. this is the reason why Steve Jobs had 50 of the same turtleneck, Zuckerberg the same t-shirt and Obama had exactly two suits. (LINK)
> "You’ll see I wear only gray or blue suits,” [Obama] said. “I’m trying to pare down decisions. I don’t want to make decisions about what I’m eating or wearing. Because I have too many other decisions to make.”
i also try and only grocery shop on Sundays and Wednesdays and use Recipe Keeper on my phone.
i firmly believe people don't realize how much seemingly minor decisions add up and wear us out. hope that helps.
If you want to keep specialized recipes, I suggest Recipe Keeper. It's a great app.
Gibt's auch für Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tudorspan.recipekeeper

Next time, paste the link in to this app (there is an iOS version as well).
It is a lifesaver!
My preferred so for this is Recipe Keeper.
