Any suggestion on what I will cook on New Years Eve?

I think I am in the same situation, in my family we are only 5 of us and we normally eat the pork with rice and black beans (moro) and yuca with plantains. That is our typical meal, this year, we decided to get so some baby back ribs so that we can throw them on the grill with some home made mashed potatoes and gravy but we are still debating what other side to have. So let's see how that goes, I just got bored having the same typical meal we want to change things up a bit. I don't know what type of found you may like, you can make a jambalaya with pasta or rice or maybe have some seafood.

Oh wow, limited budget? I don't know what beef prices are like in your country, but I like to have brisket, potatoes and a salad for New Years. My husband who still eats pork likes pork and sauerkraut, but if it is made here, he only makes a very small one since only he will eat it.

I would make a stuffed chicken, if you can afford it. It´s wonderful, not that difficult to made and look gorgeous. You stuff the raw chicken with a mixture of cooked or frieed rice, diced apple, raisins or whatever you can lay hands on that is a bit sweet. Any dry fruit will do. Fry some diced onion and stir in the rice. Stuff withh that. If you have more rice, heat it when the chicken is almost ready. I like to put some butter over mine but you can put oil too. Roast slowly at 140 ºF for over an hour. Check that it is cooked. Make a greed salad to go with it and serve flan as dessert. Make a soup with the bones for the dogs /don´t give the bones( if you also want your pet to have a New Year´s diner Happy posting!

God Bless and Happy New Year to you too, I would suggest, a quick sauce, Four ripe tomatoes Two Aubergines One onion slightly fry the onion an aubergines and add tomatoes let it cook for half hour add spices if you like or plain something you could have on bread or on the base of pizza

We're planning to have ham and beef this New Year, buko salad for dessert and spaghetti. Happy New Year!

depends in your country's tradition. some prepare turkey for thaksgiving. new year should have the most foods over christmas. start the new year with bountyful foods so that the rest of the days would also be bountiful.

I was thinking the tradition is to have black eyed peas for New Years! I don't have a clue why! But I have a package and some cornbread and I think that's what I am making for New Year's! I think you're supposed to put a silver dollar in it for luck too... but who's seen one of those in the last 20 years?

My mother is doing something original every Christmas and i love the taste of the two dishes she started to prepare two years ago. One of all of baker pepper with white beans inside baked again together and the second is beans in sour cabbage leaves. I love both of the things, because beans is one of my favorite foods, it's cheap and we have so many ways to prepare it. I know it doesn't sound as specialty, but here we make baked pepper in jars every year, so one of the things we will have for that pepper with beans and we have every winter sour cabbage, so here we are with another thing for one of the dishes, so all we have to buy is beans.
