A non registered user would submit a form, the administrator would approve it, and then users browsing the site could see the data.
I would like to make a recipe submission site. I understand I might have to write the code to list the data, but how hard would this be?
Gravity Forms can do this. Your recipes would be Post son your site. You would configure your Gravity Form to create a Post by using the Post Fields. You can configure it so the Post is marked as a Draft and has to be approved by an Administrator before it is published. Then users browsing your site could see the post once it is published.
It depends on what you are trying to do. Standard Fields can be used, but only to in turn populate Post Fields on your form using a feature called a Content Template that lets you output the value of standard fields in Post Fields.
But doing this really depends on what you are trying to accomplish. If you want to output the value of standard fields in the Post Body then you would do this with the Content Template feature of the Post Body field.
It sounds like what you want to do is allow the user to input a list of items by adding additional values to a field. Currently we don't have a List Field that could make this easy to do as you described. However, that is one of the fields we plan on adding in the 1.5.3 release. Until then, a textbox would be your only option for something like this.

Aw man, I've just bought this plugin and suddenly I regret it! I totally need this option; to have a button for additional fields for input.
Come on guys, you haven't implemented this? How difficult can it be? I mean you already have this option when constructing the form in the "multiple choice" section, there is actually a plus/minus button to add or remove fields!
Plus look at your answer to this! we're at version No. 1.5.2.8, I mean the fifth iteration of this plug-in since you've stated you 'plan on adding' that option. Any news?
Cheers
The 1.6 beta has a list-type field, so you can add additional lines as necessary. You can see it in action here:

The beta is available for download now and while I can't recommend it for production use, it's very stable and when it's finally released will offer you the functionality you need.
It's very stable now and in use by many people, but there is no date set for final release. If you'd like to give it a test drive on a test site of site you're developing, please do. If you find any bugs you'll be helping us speed the release.
