I think this has to do with my grandparents who were already in the US during the Great Depression which was a time when it was difficult to get a variety of foods, so many of the American Italian recipes that evolved during that

Now you ask about American dishes; remember America is very diverse, with people living here from all over the world, thus much of our food is the America version of foreign foods. When I think strictly American, I think stew in the winter and grilled foods in the summer. I think the latest trend is roasting veggies: I am guessing this is very American.
