Do that with an HTML form.
From Insert > Form, add the form element (which adds a faint box with
submit/reset buttons, then you add the individual field, such as text box
field, or textarea field types etc.
Then if you like, you can have it submit to your email,so you can edit for
clarity if need be, and post manually to the site; or, you can have it
submit to a database, in which case you'd have to learn about the database
results wizard and how to display data from an Access database
(see
www.frontpagewiz.com for a tutorial - its tutorial example is for
making a Blog (or guestbook I can't remember which), but you can adapt it to
whatever you like. A submission form for sending in a recipie should be
fairly simple).
If you don't have the server ext on your server, you will need to find a
script cabable of writing data to a database, or emailing information to
you, which requires a script supported by your host and server type. Your
host may even provide such a script such as a basic email/form type script.
The easiest way if you don't want to play around with server side scripting
and databases, just put an email link on the recipie page, and have people
email you their submissions, then you can manually place the recipies on a
page at your leisure. However this sort of takes away the "submit it
themselves" idea you're asking about, since you would end up doing most of
the work anyway.
