How to create a recipe box / card for your blogger blog.

Its been a little while since I posted a technical tutorial on this blog so today I am going to share how you can add a recipe box / card to your blog post. The reason one should add a recipe box is that it writes the recipe in microdata form which in turn makes the recipe easier to find across the internet.

How to create a recipe box / card for your blogger blog:

1. Go to any site such as photo bucket or image shack  and create an account where you can upload a photo and get a direct link to your recipe photo you want to use on your recipe card. Upload your photo and copy the direct url and keep a note of it  by pasting it in note pad. You will need this in step 2 at the very end.
2. Open a new tab in your browser and open  The Recipe Wiz
3. Fill the recipe box  tabs with the recipe instructions.

 3. Once you have entered all your recipe details , click on get microdata. Micro data code will look like this:

4. Copy the microdata code
5. Create a new post in blogger.

7. Once saved, your recipe card will have a photo of your recipe and all the instructions of your recipe written in microdata format finding it easier to find your recipe on the internet.
8.Your recipe card should look like this:

8. You can add additional text and photos above or below your microdata code if you wish to add more information or images in your post. However the microdata template will allow you to show one thumbnail picture only on your recipe card.
