You have two options for recipe flow: Continued and Non-Continued. Continued is the best for saving space as the recipe will start right after the previous recipe is finished. If you choose Non-Continued, recipes will be full recipes per page unless the next is too long to fit, then it will be forced to go to the next page. To choose the option, go to Editor Activities>Layout & Design. Click Select Recipe Layout. Scroll down and check "Non-Continued Recipes" and Save.
You also have the option of forcing just ONE recipe per page. See the same layout options as above for that choice.
