New Years Eve!
So, I have two recipes in the works for first recipe posts, but thought I would share our new years eve with you. Traditionally we have a two course meal of cheese fondue and empanadas followed by chocolate fondue. The cheese for the monkey this year was made with Daiya shreds, Mimic Creme and almond milk. He quite enjoyed it with his turkey sausages! I did not get photos unfortunately. I did get them of the dessert course! We ended our evening playing a round of Scooby Doo Monopoly. I love this night for its food and family traditions.
Yeah, he loved it! :)

i love the idea of a fondue tradition...in truth we have a fondue pot but have never thought to use it with the kids! what a great idea, Brooke!
ReplyDeleteand please do post the empanadas recipe, as i'm not entirely sure what they are but they sound good. i need new ideas.
we don't really have NYE traditions...the past two years my mom has taken the kids to her house so we've all had icecream over there while wearing funny hats before Dave & i went out. but i think more full-blown traditions would be nice. time to start some.
Empanadas are like the Mexican version of pot stickers/fried dumplings. We buy wonton wrappers for the shell. Boil chicken breast-cool & shred. Add jarred salsa to taste. Put a teaspoon in each wrapper, wet edge and seal. Fry in oil until crispy on each side. :)
ReplyDeleteMy grandparents, aunts, uncles, and parents used to go Blue Chip bowling on NYE after our meal. I remember many board games with my cousins.
