Western USA

The American West is big country. It takes in the vast high plains, the rugged mountain states, the arid Southwest, and the verdant Pacific Northwest. The cuisine that has grown up here reflects this diversity. It can be as simple as a buffalo burger tossed on an open flame or as well-heeled as a wine dinner served in a fancy San Francisco restaurant. There’s spicy Southwest cuisine from Arizona and New Mexico and delicate Asian-inspired cuisine along the coastal stretches of California, Oregon, and Washington. And let’s not forget that here in the West the wild salmon makes its last stand. Yes, there’s much to the claim that the West is best.

Simple Whole Wheat Bread

Reviewed on Aug. 27, 2008 by Lauraloves2run
This bread is heaven sent. I followed the recipe exactly and it was so good! (I'm not the world's best bread maker either.) I think I'm going to make this every week and play with it. Thanks so much!

Cream Cheese Pound Cake III

Reviewed on Aug. 27, 2008 by Hawaii Tutu
I made this for Christmas gifts and used 6 mini loaf pans. After the batter was in the pans, I added 2T of Smucker's blackberry or strawberry "Just Fruit" onto the top and worked it into the batter a bit. I baked them all at one time at 325 degrees F for only 40 mins. My friends loved them!
