Minnesota

The North Star State is wedged between the Dakotas and Wisconsin, directly above Iowa. Minnesota shares a long border with Canada and is touched on to the northeast by Lake Superior. More than half of Minnesota’s population live in the greater Twin Cities metropolitan area of Minneapolis and St. Paul, leaving much of the state open to agriculture, prairie land, forests, and of course many, many lakes. In a land of 10,000 lakes, you can be sure that fishing is a major sport. The walleye is the official state fish of Minnesota; anglers also fish for bass, trout, pike, and muskies. Fishing is a year-round activity. In winter, intrepid anglers open holes in the ice and keep on fishing. Along the shores of Minnesota lakes, Native Americans once gathered wild rice (which is not really rice at all, but the seeds of a wild grass). Today wild rice is the official grain of the state of Minnesota – it makes a sensational side dish for fresh-caught fish or wild duck.

Easy Pot Roast

Reviewed on Oct. 14, 2008 by bizzymomma
This was good. I like a thicker broth when it is all said and done. Next time I may have to do a roux of some sort to get that texture. The meat was very moist and tender in this dish.

One Bowl Chocolate Cake III

Reviewed on Oct. 14, 2008 by bizzymomma
Chocolate goodness! This was VERY moist and tasted more like a brownie than a cake. I made it for a birthday party and covered it with a fondant and it held up well. Everyone loved the cake and I LOVE that it only messes up one bowl!

Chicken Piccata II

Reviewed on Oct. 14, 2008 by bizzymomma
This was okay for a low calorie meal. I served it with cooked carrots. I upped the amount of garlic powder and will add even more the next time. I used chicken broth and white wine to simmer it in. It needs a little more 'pizazz' so next time I will add more spices or maybe some sweet chili sauce.
