Northeastern USA

The Northeastern United States includes New England and the Middle Atlantic States. Though made up of more states than any other region of the United States, the Northeast is the smallest region. Historically, the Northeast has been America’s melting pot. Through the years, the Northeast has remained a landing point for immigrants. Cities along the Atlantic have become rich cultural stews into which new arrivals add their food traditions. Irish immigrants gave us New England boiled dinner; German immigrants, Dutch oven stews; and Italian-Americans have created a hybrid cuisine that has spread throughout the country. More recently, the culinary influences have shifted as immigration becomes increasingly Asian, African, Middle Eastern, and Caribbean, but the invaluable contributions to the American pantry continue on as ever.

About me:
 I have an awesome husband and son that I am really starting to enjoy cooking for. We used to eat out almost every day but are trying really hard to eat at home all the time and save restaurants for a splurge! I try and be healthy for my son and be creative on a very limited budget. I like to experiment (although my husband doesn't always like the results). I'm a little bit OCD about everything in my house, so I've started writing menus for two weeks at a time, which totally eliminates the "what do you want? I don't know, what do you want?" after getting home from work! I read almost constantly when I'm not playing Hot Wheels with my son. I like to learn and try new things (am learning crochet currently, going to learn Hebrew next) and am always on the lookout for a new project. I love my family and my church.

Best Tuna Casserole

Reviewed on Oct. 7, 2008 by pietzsche
I've been reluctant to use cream of mushroom soup in my cooking. I had the impression that it was old fashioned, unhealthy and fattening. However, this was a great economical staple and it wasn't hard to shift this recipe to healthy by just adding more of the healthy, low-fat ingredients. I baked this in a big dutch oven after sauteing the onions and celery in butter on the stove top. Added everything to the pot as described, but pumped up the healthy factor by adding 3 cups of steamed broccoli florets, extra noodles and tuna, and 2 cups of chicken broth for extra moisture - enough to make it gooey and stir-able. Ended up making a huge amount - plenty for freezable leftovers - and each serving had a healthier fat-to veggie/protein ratio. I really felt comfortable using the cream of mushroom soup as an economical, time-saving shortcut and the outcome was delicious.

Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings

Reviewed on Oct. 7, 2008 by C.Miller
My family really enjoyed this. I used one can of low sodium coc soup and one regular and if was very good. I used onion flakes instead of the real thing and frozen chicken following some others suggestions. Chicken was tender and it wasn't overly salty. I may even try both soups low sodium next time. A nice "quick" crock pot meal, definitely will make again!

Chewy Peanut Butter Brownies

Reviewed on Oct. 7, 2008 by C.Miller
These are so good! I followed the recipe twice and both times they were wonderful but I'm going to try a little less white sugar the next time. My whole family loves these especially with some chocolate chips thrown in. Great recipe!!
