New year recipes

Classic Chinese Buddhist vegetable stir-fry with ten ingredients including cloud ear fungus, lily buds, bean thread noodles, and soy-spiced bean curd. A traditional Lunar New Year dish loaded with earthy, umami-rich flavors.

A stunning three-tiered champagne cake soaked in bubbly and frosted with champagne buttercream. Built from two pans and cut into graduated layers, this is the centerpiece for weddings, New Year's, and any excuse to celebrate.

This was excellent - I had to add in a few button mushrooms because I didn't have enough portobello's but I don't think it altered the flavor too much. My whole family (including my 3 year old) loved it. I served it over spaghetti that I had whipped up earlier in my pasta machine. It was a very quick and easy dish to prepare that would easily be worthy of company...bravo!

Easy and tasty! I make this casserole a few times every year when I have spaghetti squash in my kitchen. It's a well-balanced meal with just enough protein and loads of vegetables.

I got this recipe out of a magazine a few years back and I have made it a lot. The person who submitted it said it won her a blue ribbon, she also said she was a six-time Pillsbury Bake-Off finalist. I had no way to confirm this but the recipe sounded good and when I tried it I loved it.

This has been a hit since I first made it on X-mas a few years ago! This dish has been demanded at every occassion!

I make this Tiramisu a few times every year for my friends and family, because every time after they tasted it, they just kept asking me to make it again. LOL!

Adolph Frey owns one of the few Michelin-rated 2-star restaurants in Germany. He made this dish at the lodge for Carl's birthday celebration one year. Quenelles are poached fish and egg mounds traditionally made with pike.

Classic Tex-Mex chili has never failed me and my family. We have been making this chili for years, and have also tried plenty of other chili recipes. This is one of a few all-time-loved recipes by us.
