John's Digital Cookbook - Submit Recipes
John loved to cook, finding things he enjoyed cooking or baking to share with his friends and family. Many of us have memories of food he’s brought over or recipes he’s mentioned. In his honor, we’d like to create a digital cookbook we can share with those who would like to participate. A way to carry on his love of sharing food with each other.
If you have a favorite recipe you’d like to share with friends and family of John in this digital cookbook, please submit it through the following ways.
Submit recipes by February 6th
- Fill out this short Google Form with your recipe: https://forms.gle/t69cLUZRmsyjDHsHA
- Email Erin at erinaali@gmail.com your recipe and a small message to John, if you’d like.
The digital cookbook will be emailed to anyone who submits a recipe or attends (as we'll have emails on file to email the cookbook).
You are not limited to only sharing recipes you may have gotten or shared with John. Please share a recipe that you love, one you think John would have loved, or one you know he did enjoy!
