For vegetables colonists would have learned from the indigenous Lenape nation (or other colonists who did) to grow the "three sisters" , Corn, Beans (Green pole-varieties) and Squash (yellow or butter nut). They probably would have brought some grains from Europe to clear fields and grow, probably Wheat, Barley and Rye. Less popular but still edible they would have harvested wild sweet potatoes, pumpkins, cranberries and assorted wild berries (blackberries, strawberries, mulberries, etc.), wild seeds (pumpkin seeds and pine nuts) and wild nuts (chestnuts, acorns, black walnuts, etc.).
For meat, they almost certainly would have hunted not just wild turkey (which were abundant but wiley), but heath hens (which is what was eaten at the first Thanksgiving, not turkey), eastern Bison, eastern elk, and Deer. Unfortunately, all of those species except the Turkeys and Deer were made extinct due to over-hunting by around the beginning of the 20th century. Also, the fresh water lake and river fishing was great, with trout, bass, crayfish, turtles, frogs, etc. Not sure if they did salt water fishing much, certainly there were fishing boats and wharfs, though unless the salt water fish were smoked and/or salted it wouldn't last far from the shore.
Of course, that's not counting farm animals (goat, cows, hens, sheep), certainly those were a mainstay in the mid 18th century to the present. Actually, pound for pound goats are by far the most efficient farm animals for meat and dairy, though perhaps not the tastiest...
