    Recipe without the life story

    Paste a recipe link and get just the recipe: ingredients, steps, times, and servings on one clean card. No ads, no pop-ups, no scrolling past someone's summer in Tuscany.

    Works with most big recipe sites. We read the page's recipe card and nothing else.

    How it works

    1. 1

      Paste a link

      Copy the address of any recipe page, from a food blog or a big recipe site, and paste it in.

    2. 2

      We read the recipe card

      Most recipe sites publish a hidden, structured copy of the recipe for search engines. We read only that part.

    3. 3

      Cook from a clean card

      You get the title, photo, times, servings, ingredients, and steps, with a link back to the original author.

    Frequently asked questions

    How do I get a recipe without the life story?

    Paste the recipe's web address into the box above and select Clean up recipe. The tool reads the structured recipe data the site publishes and shows only the ingredients, steps, times, and servings, without the ads, pop-ups, or long introduction.

    Why didn't it work on my recipe link?

    The cleaner only reads the structured recipe card that most recipe sites include for search engines. Some pages leave it out, and some sites block automated readers. The Meal Plan Vault's AI import, included in the free 14-day Pro trial, can read recipes from almost any page, a photo, or a video.

    Is it free, and do I need an account?

    Yes, it's free, and there's no account or sign-up. Nothing you paste is saved. If you want to keep the recipe, you can save it to The Meal Plan Vault, which has a free plan and a 14-day Pro trial with no credit card.

    Is this fair to recipe creators?

    Every cleaned recipe credits and links to the original page, and we don't copy or re-host the photo. If you love a recipe, visit the creator's page for their notes, tips, and reviews.
