Chinese new year/5 recipes

Even if you dont like Ricotta cheese. DO NOT pass up this great recipe. I would have to give it a 5 star plus rating! Those who tasted these yummy treats all agree to the five star rating. So easy to make, but so hard to keep the cookie monster away! You will not be sorry with these great little treats!

My son brought this recipe home from work one day some years ago and asked me to please make these cookies for him. His friend Brian had given him the recipe. Brian's mom had made the cookies and he would bring them in to work and give my son some. My son William said that they were so good that he wanted me to make some for him, so I made them and I loved them as well as my husband, my daughter, my sisters, and everyone else who ate them. Well, then my daughter's friends wanted me to make some cookies for them, so I just gave them the recipe and said go for it yourselves, they are so easy to make. I know you will love these cookies too because they are not the regular chocolate chip cookie variety. They melt in your mouth and you can't eat just one. Thank you to my son's friend Brian and Brian's mom for sharing this delicious recipe with me, wherever they may be.

This delicious chicken dish is loaded with succulent chicken chunks, fresh asparagus and red bell pepper that are cooked with garlic, ginger, soy sauce and sesame oil. Serve it with rice to make a complete meal.

This is one of several Chinese stuffed pancake recipes, here we use bok choy, shiitake mushrooms and mung bean noodles (like vermicelli), tossed with sesame oil, ginger, garlic and five spice powder, lightly fry them on a non-stick skillet until golden brown outside, and steamy and flavorful inside.

Try something new when it comes to casseroles with this scrumptious dish you and your friends will love!

There are many renditions of pistachio cake, but I believe this one to be the original. Through the years, Mum would always ask what kind of cake I would want for my birthday. My answer would almost always be "pistachio cake." To this day, this is one of my all-time favorites.

Give your mac and cheese a new taste by adding kielbasa and mustard. The cheddar and mozzarella cheeses make this mac and cheese taste ultimately delicious and cheesy with plenty of cheesy sauce to go around.

If you love sweet and sour taste, this recipe won't disappoint you. It was delicious.

Some like it REAL hot!

I had this Greek pastry for the first time in a restaurant and I was not overly thrilled with it. So when I ran across this recipe and saw how easy is was to make I decided to try it. I liked my version much better, which will no doubt cause an uproar. So to anyone who has tried this dessert I want you to make this one and let me know if you like it, maybe it tastes nothing like it is suppose to.

This quick and easy stir-fry is a tasty way to cook seasonal eggplant and bell pepper together with classic Chinese seasonings. Serve it over rice.

This was THE BEST EVER! So moist and so much flavor with just the right amount of 'kick' to it. I loved loved LOVED this and so did my guest! This gets more than 5 stars! and a double blue ribbon! :)

These ribs were the most delicious Chinese ribs ever. So much more meaty, juicy and tender than Chinese take-out. Give it a go, and you will be pleased.

I prepared this sans the pork as I had none. I added frozen peas, some fresh diced carrot and rinsed and drained bean sprouts. YUM!

Nothing is like a Chinese stir-fry when it comes to 'Quick, Easy and Delicious"!
