I had the exact same problem, stupidly trying to work out what was wrong. I restarted the server and it worked. Don't ask me how or why...

I'm having the same problem. Tried killing and resetting the server, but to no avail.

Install nodemon like in the original course or restart the server after each modification. (npm install -g nodemon)

I got an error 304 on the console and google said that it might be the cache on my browser. I cleaned it and it worked, then I had the problem again and restarting the server solved it again

I had the same issue and solved it just like Connor Nally found. I had not finished writing my code completely but had saved the file, which ran the server and showed the same error of 'recipes' being undefined. 'Correct the error'/complete my work, close and restart and we were ok. Quite annoyed as 30 minutes of research trying to figure out why I was wrong, had to give up and watch Guil's solution. See I have the same at this point and it still doesn't work.

To me, software development seems to have a lot of issues solved with the phrase "Have you tried turning it off and on again?"
