I'm intrested in American diet all along... Can u tell me some typical american meals?

Question

I'm italian, and I'm used to eat pasta and other mediterranean diet foods... I want to erase the stereotype that Americans eat only french fries and hamburger... So, what's your typical meal?

Answer 1

For Breakfast:

Carne Guisada with Cheese Tacos

For Lunch:

Usually just have a soda water (Coke or Dr. pepper) with a burger and fries or onion rings. Sometimes I will eat Chinese or Mexican foods.



For dinner:

Chicken Fried Steak with Country Cream Gravy, Mashed Potatoes, Green Beans, Hot Rolls,and Salad with Ranch Dressing.  Or

Another favorite of mine is a Rib eye steak cooked on the BBQ over mesquite, Baked Potatoes with sour cream, chives, and bacon, grilled onions, and a roll with butter and honey.

I usually cook other things as well, such as Swedish meatballs, roast, soups, stews, anything other than burgers and fries. This is usually a lunch favorite only because it is easy and fast.

Answer 2

BREAKFAST:

Pancakes with syrup and orange juice.

OR

Cereal and milk.

OR

Scrambled eggs and bacon with coffee.

LUNCH: salad and a turkey and cheese sandwich.  a light soup maybe.

DINNER (largest meal of the day):

Baked or grilled porkchops.  Mashed potatoes and peas.  Cornbread.

OR

Baked chicken with mushroom sauce.  White rice and green beans.  White dinner rolls.

But, I live in the South (of the USA) and we have different foods than in the north and regionally.
