Atlantic South

The Atlantic South stretches from Delaware all the way down to southern Florida. The modern culinary history of this sub-region stretches back to 1565, when Spaniards waded ashore to establish the first European colony in America at Saint Augustine, Florida. The Spanish introduced pigs and peaches into the Americas. Centuries later, pork barbecue rules the South and peaches command the orchards of Georgia and South Carolina. Seafood is on the menu all along the Atlantic South, from the blue crab of the Chesapeake Bay to the conch fritters of Key West. Rice once dominated the Lowcountry of South Carolina and Georgia. Though the industry has long since died out, the rice-based dishes that grew up here, like Hoppin’ John, remain.

Chicken Noodle Casserole I

Reviewed on May 8, 2008 by rhonda
Great base. I wanted more of a chicken & cheese casserole so I changed it a bit. 1 can of cheddar cheese soup, 16oz sour cream, 8 oz cooked noodles, 1/4-1/2 tsp pepper, 1/2 tsp dry mustard, 1-2 cups diced cooked chicken & 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese. Topped with cracker/butter mixture. Baked covered 30 min, uncovered 15 min.

White Beans and Peppers

Reviewed on May 8, 2008 by Laurenski
Very good! I substituted black beans (what I had) added a little cajun seasoning (along with other spices)and it turned out perfectly. Really great quick side dish, plus it's healthy! The possibilities are endless. Thank you!!
