Indiana

Situated between Illinois and Ohio and just below Michigan, the Hoosier State occupies the center of the Midwest. Incidentally, the original meaning of Hoosier is no great compliment: it means an ungainly, awkward yokel. But Indianans have unabashedly embraced the name. Hoosier is also the team name of Indiana University in Bloomington. A few Indiana culinary traditions include Persimmon pudding, Indiana chile (with beef and beans), and popcorn. About half of Indiana’s farmland is planted in corn, and Hoosiers have been popping kernels since Native Americans first taught them the trick. The Indianapolis 500, held every year over Memorial Day weekend, is one of America’s premiere tailgating events. Pre-race, fans can fuel up at Breakfast at the Brickyard and the annual Champions Pasta Dinner. And the winning driver of the Indy 500 traditionally hoists a big glass bottle of cold milk in the winner’s circle.

Classic Waffles

I halved the salt, doubled the sugar and beat the eggs separately until they were light and fluffy and these turned out really well.

Meatloaf Muffins

Reviewed on Nov. 21, 2009 by SARAHDARNELL 
I liked this entire recipe. But I only rated it four stars, because I would make several changes next time. I definitely like the muffin concept, but it is important to put the muffin pan on top of a cookie sheet, to allow the grease to drain off. Also, the actual recipe was good, but the vegetable soup addition was just 'different' I won't say it was bad, but it definitely had that 'condensed soup' flavor and the vegetable chunks, were a tad unappetizing. So, next time I may use another meatloaf recipe that I like better. Overall, though, not bad. You could cook this recipe 'as written' and still turn out with a good dinner.

Deviled Eggs

Reviewed on Nov. 21, 2009 by GreedyGretchen 
This was a great recipe. I added some crumbled up bacon pieces to mine. I left out the salt b/c the bacon has plenty of it. It was really good. I recommend adding the bacon.
