Figured out a simpler solution. I can repeat this as many times as I want throughout the same page! Hope it helps someone.
<?php
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'recipes', //name of custom post type
'tax_query' => array(
array(
'taxonomy' => 'custom_cat', //name of custom category
'field' => 'slug',
'terms' => 'cottage-cheese', //name of category
),
),
);
$query = new WP_Query( $args );
if( $query->have_posts() ) {
echo '<ul class="recipe-list">';
while ($query->have_posts()) {
$query->the_post();
echo '<li>' . get_the_title() . '</li>';
}
echo '</ul>';
wp_reset_query();
} ?>
