Nature's Recipe, unfortunately is not a good dog food. This is a new product, however, so it probably will rank around a 3 star. But most of their recipes rank at a star.

What I did not like about the ingredients is that Sweet Potatoes and Potatoes are the 2nd and 3rd ingredient.
What I did not like about the brand is it's made by a manufactuer of canned veggies and fruits and many other products you will find in a grocery store- Del Monte. Del Monte does not care about your dog. The care about making money. Same with canned fruits and veggies, are you getting the nutrients you would out of them as you do fresh? Heck no. This means only one thing, it's probably over processed, over heated, ect.
Here is the ingredients:

So what is Chicken Digest?
Well, if we turn to AAFCO in the US we find this definition:
'Animal digest' - A material which results from chemical and/or enzymatic hydrolysis of clean and undecomposed animal tissue. The animal tissues used shall be exclusive of hair, horns, teeth, hooves and feathers, except in such trace amounts as might occur unavoidably in good factory practice and shall be suitable for animal feed. If it bears a name descriptive of its kind or flavor, it must correspond thereto.'
What is it used for?
Quite simply, most dried pet foods would have a low palatability without the use of flavourings - that is, your pet wouldn't eat them quite as enthusiastically. Digest is a flavouring or palatability enhancer which is often sprayed onto the kibble in small amounts to make the food more appetizing. There's nothing intrinsically wrong with it as an ingredient, and as long as the rest of the ingredients together make a complete and nutritious food then it can be thought of as spraying on a little bit of gravy.
The only argument, from the standpoint of feeding a natural diet is whether the manufacturing process to create the digest (chemical or enzymatic hydrolysis) can be considered 'natural'... and if a manufacturer is wary of including digest in their ingredient declaration, even though they use it (Burns is a case in point), what does that say about their confidence in answering this question?
Simply put, now that I know more about dog food, I would not ever try Nature's Recipe....
The other brands (Fromm, Nature's Variety) are twice as expensive, but you only need to feed half as much per day, because there is hardly any fillers. Not to mention less poop pick up!
You will not find these brands at petsmart, but you can take back your bag of Nature's Recipe if you decide to, if you got it at petsmart. Call around to your local feed stores or look on their websites for a retailer near you.
I wish I could tell everyone about food, hopefully I will, one bully lover at a time! 
, then told him you had 4 kids, his mind is blown for today!! He said having Vegas was like a second job, Which it can be, he could not IMAGINE having another bully!! LOL, LOL..
