Spoon Bread. This is a modern take on James Monroe's favorite dish. Instead of Jiffy, I used 8.5oz of Bob's Redmill cornbread mix, because the quality is a bit higher, but it works fine with Jiffy.
Michelle Obama's Pea Salad. I don't think it needs the maple syrup so I didn't use it. I also didn't puree some of the peas because the presentation looks messy. Also soaking the leeks and shallots in cold water for about 10min helps soften the flavor of those vegetables a bit, if they're too strong.
President Nixon's Barbecued Chicken I used butter for the marinade. It offers your grill a chance to catch fire and give the chicken that really good smoky flavor! haha!
George Bush's Camp David Potato Gratin
Abraham Lincoln Almond Cake. Be careful on the cooking time, I baked for 48 min (instead of the recommended 1hr)
