  You can enable a print button http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/#customize-your-services
  You can upload each recipe as an image.
  You can use PrintFriendly or to upload a pdf copy of the recipe text as a Scribd embed.
  http://www.printfriendly.com/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/scribd/

  If I were making images with the recipes available on my site, then the simplest way to allow readers to print plain unadorned text (and search engines to read) would be to make a page 2 where you copy/paste the text from the illustration program used to make the recipe image.

  Thanks so much for the help and great ideas. When I look at the first link on uploading each recipe as an image, there doesn’t appear to be any information. Are you sure this is the correct link? Which option do you think would be the most simple to do? Thanks again for all the great information!
