At the top you can narrow the list by choosing from three separate filters, Likely Meal (Lunch, Dinner, etc.), Category and Creator (you or some other source). Remember you have total control over category and creator names. Categorize recipes any way you like.

Another way to filter recipes is to use the search feature; this lets you search for a recipe that uses a particular ingredient. Clicking the button, "Search Recipes by Ingredient...", pops up a dialog like the ingredient search. Enter part of the description of an ingredient, such as "brocco" to find recipes that use broccoli.
