I have lots of family recipes that I want to make into a book for my siblings and cousins. Has anyone ever done this? How did you make the book? Any websites you can recommend for creating the book?

My mom made one from my grandma's recipes on mixbook so she could also include family photos. She scanned in some recipes and typed in others. That was pretty cool, but you wouldn't want to go that way for lots of recipes or without photos.

my brother in law just did this for my sister in law on shutterfly.... seems like they already had a template to use for recipes and he was able to add pics and notes to each page. It ended up being over 15o pgs and he left some blank ones to write in new recipes

@Jess1483: @Chillybear: what did you guys think of the quality of the book/printing?

I only got to see the online proof of the book, he is giving it to her for christmas and asked me to help proof read. It looked great I'm sure the quality will be as good as other shutterfly albums i've seen

@Seattlemom: The quality was good. I like Mixbook in general, I think they do a nice job and it's generally not too expensive.

I didn't see the print version but someone I know was gifted a recipe book made on blurb for her bridal shower from all the guests and the proof online looked great!
