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.

Fast and Easy Tofu Lo-Mein

Reviewed on Dec. 4, 2008 by MOLLE888
Three stars for taste, four for ease of preparation. I just wasn't that impressed... it's esentially frozen vegetables over ramen noodles. But I wasn't expecting to be wowed. Good for a "what can I make with virtually nothing?" type recipe.

Pumpkin Pecan Cheesecake

Reviewed on Dec. 4, 2008 by Mis' Kitchen
This pie was a hit on Thanksgiving. It was easy to make and I'm still enjoying the pumpkin butter that was left over. I chose this one because it only calls for one bar of cream cheese, as opposed to three. It's not really like a cheesecake but more of a creamy smooth pumpkin pie. Definitely a keeper!
