New Years traditions
Seems like my tradition for New Years is way too boring now. Does anyone have fun traditions for New years? Any traditional dishes? i need help please i have to feed over 20 people!! help me!! please
Re: New Years traditions
For the past 10 years or so my mom and my aunt have taken turns hosting NYE. We get a bunch of seafood and make lots of different dishes. We also have steak and chicken for those who don't like the seafood, so it's kind of a surf and turf feast. Then we play board games and/or video games and wait for the ball to drop.
Easy Nibbles ideas: Goat Cheese empanadas, use refrigerated pie dough, roll out dough and cut out sixteen to twenty 2 1/2 " circles with a mug. Place a small teaspoon of goat cheese in the center of each circle (about four oz total), add a scant teaspoon of salsa. Brush edge of dough with water. Fold in half and pinch closed. place on cookie sheet. Bake in a 400 degree preheated oven for 8-12 minutes. Serve hot. .
Pick up fresh melon two days before. Let sit on counter to ripen. Cut melon into wedges. Wrap a thin slice of prosciutto around half the wedges. Secure with a toothpick. (About 1 lb slice very thin should work). Cantalope and Honeydew both work well.
Two days in advance, place a 1/4 cup of fresh herbs chopped fine in a small jar. My favorite is rosemary and basil. Cover with 1 cup olive oil. The day of the party Brush the infused oil on eight pita breads. Cut bread into four wedges. Cook in 400 degree preheated oven for 10-15 minutes. Serve with sliced cucumbers, carrot sticks and hummus.
Pick up some whole grained mustard. Mix 1/2 cup mustard with two tbsp of honey. Serve honey mustard with thick pretzel sticks and apple slices.
Thank you for replying!!
