My boyfriend is American and I am Chinese. I can only cook Chinese dishes... but he doesn't eat Chinese food. I have absolutely NO idea what do normal American family eat everyday. Can you tell me some basic dishes of your daily meal so I can look up the receipe?
Thanks!

American food includes a mix of many kinds. So you will find influences of Italian, French, British, Asian and Middle Eastern in many dishes. But the base is typically three things:
- Protein (meat, fish, poultry)
- Starch (potatoes, pasta, bread, rice)
- Vegetables (salad, cooked vegetables)
Get a standard cook book from someone like Emeril Lagasse, Alton Brown or Rachael Ray to help you. I also encourage you to watch the Food network (or go on their web site)

Americans eat more "Sandwiches" than anything else.
The is no end to the sandwich except you imagination... create one all your own by using your Chinese ingredients : )
