Do you have a favorite family recipe that you’d like to share with the world? (and make some money with?)

Recipe lenses are popular at Squidoo.com because they are fun to build (everybody has a favorite recipe) and with so many Amazon.com options available for cookbooks, cooking utensils, and small appliances they are easy to monetize but recipe lenses do need a few things to help them become successful money-makers.

I’ve done well with my recipe lenses and although each and every recipe lens I’ve created is completely unique and different from each other, they all contain the same 5 basic ingredients.

At How to make Money with Recipes I share those 5 secret ingredients with you and explain exactly why you need to include each of them in order to help your recipe lenses be as successful as possible.
