I am so happy to find myself not alone: I very much prefer the old format for recipes!!! It was so easy to see and no need to click and load, etc. (BTW Kathy, you could print the recipes easily with the old format—at least on a Mac.) I also think the disclaimer about not being doctors could be once on the site and not after each recipe (an asterisk would suffice)…it sometimes makes me use an extra sheet of paper when printing!

I love the make your own instant oatmeal recipe. Any idea where I can get more recipes like that?

It would be nice to have a way to print out each recipe, as on the website. Best of both worlds?

I agree with the last two about presenting the recipes the old way. Much easier to access.

Dear Winnie, I completely agree with Kathleen. I much prefer the old e-newsletters and the way the recipes were presented. Now it is much too difficult to thumb through the pages upon pages of recipes posted on the new site. I don’t get what I used to get out of the old version. Thank you.

Dear Winnie—-I’ll have to look for the other receipies available on your website — something I’d rather not spend time on. For me, the “old” way was easier. I love your store but the new website in its present form is something I’ll probably skip.
Best,
Daphne

I prefer the old way of posting recipes. I could see instantly which ones would best serve my family;s taste and or diets. It is more cumbersome now, so I tend to skip them entirely.

@Kathleen What do you mean? We still have recipes available on our website – these are suggestions from some customers who posted to The Whole Deal website.

I’m curious if anyone has any recipes/suggestions/comments in regard to living solo, working all day, working out after work, getting home 7-8p wanting a nutrioutous meal something maybe 30min or less?
