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.

Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies II

Reviewed on Oct. 14, 2008 by ashleynicole
"Daibreak" (one of the top reviewers for this cookie) said this recipe is just like the toll house cookie recipe except for the fact that this one uses 1/2 butter, 1/2 shortening. SHe's totally wrong; these 2 recipes are COMPLETELY different from each other. the crisco thing is one DIFFERENCE on top of the fact that nestle uses 3/4 cup of both sugars. Also nestle recipe uses 2 eggs whereas this recipe uses 1... iregardless, this is a totally original and good tasting cookie.

Spiced Baked Apples

Reviewed on Oct. 14, 2008 by Jennifer
It's recipes like these that make the kickoff into cold weather worth it. I didn't use walnuts or raisins - used maple syrup in addition to just a little brown sugar. Threw in a few pear slices too...why not?
