Spiral Binding is a good option

3. Decide the name of your personalized recipe book depending on the theme. Say for example, if your  book is  all about Vegan recipes, then "Vegan Unplugged" or if the book is all about Mexican food then "Mexican Gourmet". Or you can give the cookbook your name, say "Sangeeta's Kitchen" or "Joan's Kitchen" etc etc.
