Extension Usage Instructions

                        This extension extracts the title, ingredients, and instructions from recipes on top recipe aggregation sites and gives you them as easily editable, minimally formatted, downloadable text in a popup. Different HTML layouts and text formats can make saving recipes by copy-pasting the text directly extremely frustrating; this extension simplifies the process and makes it easy to save personal, easily customized versions of your favorite recipes from popular recipe aggregation sites.

If you want to edit recipes in any way (make notes, change ingredient quantities) or are worried you'll lose track of your favorites, you can now easily save and customize them however you want.

Supports the top 16 recipe aggregation sites (by traffic), including allrecipes, epicurious, foodnetwork, seriouseats, etc.
