Hello!

My name is Allyson Elizabeth D'Angelo and I am the editor of the American Regional Cuisine site at Bella Online.com.

My weekly newsletter, which will be emailed to you every Saturday, will contain a link to my weekly article as they are posted.

Information on food history, reviews on books, kitchen equipment or products that I own and rely on, for solid cooking references or which I find are really helpful and are worth the money.

My goal is to make American Regional Cuisine at BellaOnline.com a "go to" site for recipes which are cooked from the heart, are original, budget-friendly and use fresh ingredients whenever possible. Whether you are a novice or accomplished cook looking for something quick and easy to make, then you are signing up for a newsletter worthwhile!

I am all about family, food and the people who create both - you and me! I love being creative in the kitchen and that starts with a great recipe idea which can be adjusted to suit all of us. I love to share recipes so that we all can increase our creativity and bring fresh and new ideas to the regional tables of America!

The recipes in the American Regional Cuisine newsletter are inspired by my family, friends and the people I have encountered in my daily life, which have been tested over and over in my own kitchen.

I love to include a variety of suggestions that will hopefully be beneficial to you. I use fresh and local ingredients whenever possible, as I strongly believe that dishes taste far better when doing so.

As I am family oriented, I try to include ways to be palate friendly to children. I will also give alternate cooking methods, whether it be the stove top, slow cooker, pressure cooker, barbeque or oven.

Before you sign up for my American Regional Cuisine Newsletter, please read my all about me (my bio) by clicking on my name at the top of the page at American Regional Cuisine. Just a reminder that this is absolutely free!!

I look forward to sharing America's tables with you!
