    American Food

    Part of appreciating the food of the world is also appreciating the food in my own backyard. And let me tell you-- America has some GREAT food to celebrate. America is a melting pot, so many of the dishes you'll find featured here are adapted versions of global classics.

    There are some dishes, though, that were born and raised here in the USA. Take Peach Cobbler, for example or Chocolate Mayonnaise Cake. You might also like checking out this American Flag Fruit Pizza.
