¼ cup dry white wine

¼ cup chicken broth

Juice of half a lemon

This was an excellent article but when I went to print the recipe, I could not get it all on one sheet of paper. If the photo was just a little smaller, that would have happened. Please consider this. I hate to waste paper and take up so much room in my binder for two linesâ€¦..

On all printers I've seen there is an option to "fit content to media" which would make it fit on the paper.
