I have a drop down list of recipes. How can I set up the drop down list so
that when a recipe is selected, all the ingredents are listed in a separate
sheet?

Tie it to a macro that does that. Possibly thru a worksheet_change event

We would need to know more about the worksheets.
Hopefully you have something like:
Recipe_name, ingredient _1, ingredient-2, etc
The you could use a simple VLOOKUP on the new sheet to extract the list
Send me file if you wish (but my magic umbrella is leaking)
best wishes
