Name That Dish!
You may be familiar with this Summer berry dessert, which is baked in a casserole dish and reminiscent of a fruit pie. Do you know what it is?
Name That Soul Food!
With the Fourth of July fast approaching, I've been in the mindset of paying homage to my favorite American foods. But as much as I love our country's biggest icons — like hot dogs and hamburgers — there's one genre of American cuisine that can't go overlooked, and that's soul food. This month is National Soul Food Month, so I thought I'd test your knowledge of traditional African-American Southern cuisine.
Name That Dish!
In many parts of the United States, this raw cabbage salad is a seminal component of Summer food fare. Do you know what it's called?
Name That Dish!
If you love seared tuna and guacamole, you'd enjoy this popular raw course. Can you name it?
Guacamole Two Ways — Beginner and Expert
Every year during the Super Bowl, guacamole is so popular that on game day alone, Americans consume approximately 50 million pounds of avocados. This year's big Sunday should be no exception, and I'll be taking advantage — particularly with avocado prices predicted to rise this Spring.
Here, I've found two recipes.
Buffalo Chicken Two Ways — Beginner and Expert
From pickled jalapeños to chipotle chile chocolate bars, I love spicy food, but if I were forced to pick a favorite, I'd have to go with spicy buffalo chicken. Not only is it the ultimate comfort food, but the tender chicken is also crispy, zippy, and tangy all at once.
Whether you're looking for the perfect Super Bowl party platter or you simply want something to fulfill your quest for spice, look no further than these buffalo chicken recipes.
Turkey Meatloaf Two Ways — Beginner and Expert
All I've craved since the holidays are my favorite childhood comfort foods, but I'm trying to eat healthy, nutritious, wholesome foods. That's why turkey meatloaf is perfect for this month — it's the best of both worlds. Although meatloaf made with ground beef isn't horrible for you, these recipes, which call for lean, ground, all-breast turkey meat, are even better.
Macaroni & Cheese With a Butternut Twist
Who doesn't love comfort food with a twist? I certainly do, so naturally I was thrilled to experiment with this hearty version of the American classic: butternut squash mac and cheese. Although the finished dish is the vibrant color of the classic Kraft Macaroni and Cheese, this variation is substantially more flavorful.
Can You Identify American Breweries?
Happy American Beer Day! To commemorate the many great American breweries, I put together another round of the popular American beer identification game. I'll list a brew and you tell me if it's American or not.
Monday's Leftovers: Baked Corn Dogs
While it's perfectly acceptable to love corn dogs as a kid, there are fewer opportunities to enjoy them as adults. Part of that has to do with the corn dog and its reputation, but we also feel guilty for taking something that's not all that healthy to begin with and deep-frying it on a stick.
Fortunately, one can shamelessly return to the good times of youth with this baked version, which uses smoked chicken sausage instead of the traditional beef frank.
