Mac Word spacing issue

When I copy paste recipes for instance I CONTROL CMD V paste text for the ingredients and the Directions.

Ingredient list always spaces lines

Directions don't

I try to highest the ingredients and change the spacing but that's the best it does.

Is there a way to edit the spacing?

Pasting as plain text is command - shift -V. If you want to match the formatting of the existing document, it's command-shift-option-V.


Or, use the format painting function.
