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.

Sloppy Joes II

Reviewed on Aug. 18, 2008 by superfoodie
These beat the store bought canned kind, any day! All I had was a red pepper, so I used that. Lightly buttered and broiled fresh deli buns. My family raved. Even my husband who is a sloppy joe hater, thought these were great. It's nice too that you usually have all the ingredients alredy. Kudos

Stuffed Mega 'Shrooms

Reviewed on Aug. 18, 2008 by Chelsea
I also made these tonight to go with the pasta salad. And I must say, these are INCREDIBLE. I made them exactly as written (I'm trying to stick to the recipes as closely as I can from now on...) and I dont think I would change a thing. They were salty, creamy, buttery... heaven on a plate. I think I might make another batch this weekend if the mushrooms look good. Thank you!
