This weeks theme: BEST/FAVORITE CHICKEN RECIPE

Send in your favorite Chicken Recipe!


When you send in your recipe, please include a difficulty rating (Easy, Moderate, Difficult). This should help you decide if you'd like to try out the recipe or not.


I will post recipes as they come to me, each recipe will get their own blog post. You can sumbit as many as you'd like and pictures are a big plus if you have them.

NEW: When you email your recipe, please put all the info in the body of your email rather than as an attachment. I've been having issues with pasting info from attachments and I've been needing to re-type a lot of the recipes I receive. It gets time consuming, so this would be much appreciated!

Please send your recipes to: ninerrecipeexchange@gmail.com Please include your Nest screen name when you sumbit your recipe!!


The next exchange will be held in 2 weeks.
