Hi.  I’m Bill Johnson. I’m Compulsive-Obsessive when it comes to recipes. I’ve been collecting recipes since I was 10 years old — more than 50 years ago! 

The Recipes Database presents some of the results of my lifetime of obsessively collecting recipes of all sorts. They were first collected in spiral notebooks. They moved on to 3×5 cards (kept in a card catalog case that a library disposed of cheap). They’ve been kept in assorted electronic databases (dBase II, Paradox, Access, etc.) And now they’re kept in a “Now You’re Cookin’” database that I love.

My database contains more than a million recipes, which I’ll be presenting here on an on-going basis. (If I upload one recipe per day, it’ll only take me 2,700 years to get them all into your hands.)  And many of those recipes have been compiled into specialized cookbooks, which you can purchase if you wish to do so.  Additionally, you can become a Free Member of the TRD Membership Club and receive ten recipes each week emailed directly to you.

Guarantee: All the recipes on this site — and all the recipes emailed to members of the TRD Membership Club — are 100% free. If you choose to buy a cookbook, that $4.97 is 100% guaranteed. If you’re not happy, I’m not happy. Let me know within 30 days that you’re not happy with the cookbook and I’ll “immediately” (within a day, since I do have to sleep from time to time) refund your $4.97.
