Introduction
The U.S. is
home to many great things, but one of the best is its food culture. We have many restaurants and cuisines that make dining out an adventure every
time you go. But what are Americans' favorite dishes? According to a survey by
The NPD Group, these are the most popular dinners in America:
Chicken
Chicken is
the most popular dinner food in America. It's easy to prepare, versatile and
can be made in many different ways. Chicken is a good source of protein and
other nutrients such as iron, selenium, phosphorus and vitamin B12.
Pasta
Pasta is one
of the most popular foods in America. It's also a classic Italian dish, so it's
no surprise that pasta recipes are some of our most beloved meals. Pasta is
easy to make and can be served with almost any sauce you want, so
there's something for everyone!
If you have
company coming over for dinner, this recipe will help them feel at home with an
easy meal that anyone could make—even if they're unfamiliar with making pasta
from scratch!
Pizza
Pizza is a
popular meal for many people, and it's easy to make at home. If you want to go
the healthy route, choose low-fat cheese and whole-wheat crusts (or even
better, skip the crust altogether). You can also use leftover pizza as an
opportunity to try out new toppings on your next order from your favorite local
pizzeria.
Pizza can be
a tasty way of using leftovers without making them boring or tasteless by
adding some variety by topping off your pie with something different each time!
Sandwiches/Wraps
Sandwiches
are a great way to use up leftover ingredients. You can easily make sandwiches
out of any leftovers in your fridge, and they're easy to eat. Some people
prefer cold sandwiches, but many prefer them served hot or warm. There are so
many kinds of sandwiches; you'll find something to suit your tastes!
Cold sandwich
options include grilled cheeses, BLTs (bacon, lettuce and tomato), club
sandwiches (turkey with bacon or ham), grilled portobello mushroom caps topped
with goat cheese or Gruyere cheese; panini's like the Italian sub with salami
or provolone cheese melted overtop sliced tomatoes and onions on top of
ciabatta bread cut into thick slices; thin crust pizzas topped with meats such
as pepperoni sausage patties replacing traditional tomato sauce with homemade
pizza sauce...the list goes on!
Seafood
Seafood is
often the show's star, but it doesn't have to be. You can get your seafood
fix by making a simple fish or shrimp dish full of flavor and nutrition.
Here are some tips for cooking seafood:
●
Use
fresh, high-quality ingredients when you're making seafood recipes. The fresher
the fish or shellfish, the better it will taste.
●
Don't
overcook your foods — especially when cooking with shellfish! If you cook too
long at high temperatures (which can easily happen if your pan isn't properly
seasoned), then bacteria will grow on top of them and cause spoilage later on
down the road when they're served raw or cooked again in another way.
Tacos/Burritos/Enchiladas
Tacos,
burritos, and enchiladas are all Mexican dishes that you'll find on this list.
Though they're not technically the same thing—Tacos are made with meat (often
pork), while burritos tend to be filled with rice or beans—they share many
similarities: they're both served in tortilla shells and can be eaten with your
hands. Enchiladas are similar in that they're usually made out of tortillas
instead of bread; however, these dishes also often include potatoes or cheese
as an additional filling option.
In general,
tacos tend to have more meat than burritos; both have a lot of cheese
involved too! You'll recognize an enchilada by its rolled edge around the
filling; it's usually pretty spicy too!
You're in good company! Most
people's favorite foods will probably be on this list.
