Calling for favorite fish recipes
We?re inviting you to share your favorite Minnesota fish recipes through the Wild Minnesota Recipe Exchange! We extended the date for sending recipes so we?d love to see more through the end of July. The recipe exchanges allow for sharing the recipe in an online form where people can submit the recipe, a photo of the meal and even a background story. Share them for the chance to be featured on DNR website and social media platforms.
Recipes carry special meaning. Whether passed down generations, emblematic of culture or newly created, wild game recipes give anglers a chance to fully appreciate their harvest, share with friends and family and connect with the outdoors on a deeper level.
