RecipeCleaner Extension

Even with an ad blocker, recipe sites are a messy experience. Popups ask you to subscribe, there are pages and pages of filler text and images to scroll through, and then finally the recipe is tucked away at the bottom somewhere.

RecipeCleaner shows you only what you care about: what you're making, what you need, and how to make it.

Julian Acito (ID: 0000003ec801c6f8) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/08/2023 This is AMAZING - even better than RecipeFilter because of how it lets you check off items. Feedback: When you scroll the ingredients toolbar should scroll as well to stay on the page. Also, noticed a bug on some sites like on blueapron.com/recipes/ pages where the steps are doubled.
