I really like using the reader mode in Safari. This has made navigating pages with recipes far simpler because it removes all of the ads.

Good afternoon. 
I like using the food network app to find recipes. I like how you can share the recipes through email as well. I email the ones I like to myself and just delete the bit about downloading the app at the beginning of the email. I like how it's nicely formatted in the email and it's so easy to read. Hope this helps.
