Please excuse my ignorance, can you explain how I'm supposed to read those? Top-to bottom first? I studied the pizza one and onion rings and while I could create the items from the format, I feel as though I don't fully understand it.

Read it in whatever order, just make sure to do all the things inside one enclosure, before moving onto a bigger one.

I'd say those tabulated views at the bottom of each recipe page should be read like this:

1. Read and do all the "full-width" items at the top first as preparation

2. The remaining items in the tabulated recipe should be read as a combination dependency graph and Gantt chart. E.g. mashing ripe bananas can be done in parallel with melting the butter and beating the eggs, but all three must be completed in order to move onto the step of "mashing until smooth" all those ingredients together with the vanilla extract ingredient. This way of reading is more of a "left to right" approach.
