How do you record and organize your texted, emailed, and Googled recipes-with a traditional recipe box, an app, or something different?Īnd if you have a favorite comfort food recipe to share that you got from a friend or loved one, you know we’d love to hear all about it. I’ve picked up countless tips for my reading life, my wardrobe, and my kitchen from the Modern Mrs Darcy community over the years, so I’m eager to hear from all of you in the comments.

The recipes linked in my group texts and book club email chains are just as important to me as my parents’ well-worn recipe cards from the 1990s-I just don’t know how to keep the links in an organized, meaningful way. My current method of Googling recipes or saving bookmarks to my internet browser makes my head spin. I dream of curating a similar collection of recipes from my own dear friends to pass down to my children one day.

Creamy Chicken Enchiladas (see full recipe below) What started as a simple exchange of ingredients among friends has built a treasure trove of memories and my entire catalog of comfort food.
One family friend put vanilla pudding packets in her chocolate chip cookie dough, and I made those “pudding cookies” so many times in high school that my friends renamed the recipe after me. My kindergarten best friend’s mom made the best creamy chicken enchiladas, and I still request them every time I visit home. My mom’s lasagna, hamburger soup, and taco pie recipes all came from her close friends, and I treasure them as much as (or even more than) my parents do. My internet search history is full of half-forgotten recipes, while my parents’ physical recipe box is stuffed with handwritten instructions for casseroles and desserts collected from family parties, church potlucks, and school fundraising nights. Maybe it’s because I turned 30 last year, or maybe it’s because I have a little one-and so now I’m considering tradition, legacy, and memories in a whole new way-but I’m starting to wonder if scrolling a text thread or searching Google is the best way to preserve my favorite recipes for years to come. We text each other links, which are undoubtedly convenient but so easy to lose track of. Unlike my parents’ generation, my dinner companions don’t write down recipes for each other on patterned “from the kitchen of” index cards. I never logged the recipe after she texted it to me, so I rely on Google every time I want to replicate the meal. The potatoes are indeed the best, but the real magic of this side dish is the memory of my friend’s hospitality and how much we laughed together that weekend. Whenever I roast the best crispy potatoes ever, I think of my friend Emily who lovingly cooked a hearty meal of buttermilk brined chicken, potatoes, and green beans when I stayed at her home a few years ago. I’m happy to say that’s what she’s doing today.
Readers, when Chelsey first shared her “comfort food and recipe card” realization with me, and its connection to loved ones and legacy, I begged her to write about it for Modern Mrs Darcy.
