Operation `.insertOne()` buffering timed out after 10000ms - Node.js Mongoose

I am trying to send recipe data such as title, description,prep time etc, but i keep getting this error Operation recipes.insertOne() buffering timed out after 10000ms. I have tried almost every solution i have stumbled across but I still get this error. I have an auth service that works but this is the only part that doesnt want to work atm. Heres the core:

Recipe Controller

const Recipes = require('../models/recipe')    const post = (req, res) => {    const recipe = new Recipes(req.body);    console.log(recipe)    recipe.save();    try {      res.status(201).send({        message: 'Recipe posted'      })    } catch (err) {      res.status(400).send({        err: console.error(),        message: `${err}`      })    }  }    module.exports = {    post  }

Recipe Model

const mongoose = require('mongoose');    const recipeSchema = mongoose.Schema({      title: {          type: String,          required: ["Must Have Title"]      },      category: {          type: String,          required: ['Must have selected a Category']      },      prepTime: {          type: Number,          required: ['Must have a Prep Time'],      },      numberOfPeople: {          type: Number,          required: ['Must have a number of people'],      },      description: {          type: String,          required: ['Must have a description']      }  })    module.exports = mongoose.model('Recipes', recipeSchema, 'recipes')

const mongoose = require('mongoose');    let DSN = `mongodb://localhost:27017/recipes`;    mongoose.connect(    DSN,    {      useNewUrlParser: true,      useUnifiedTopology: true    }, err => {      if (err) {        return console.log('Could not connect to DB: ', err);      }      console.log('Successfully connected to database...');    });

The console.log shows the information is being captured but isn't being sent. I have tried with Recipes.create(req.body) and every other alternative I could find. Any help is appreciated
