10 Chinese New Year Recipes to Celebrate the Year of the Pig

January 18, 2019 by Jill Leave a Comment

Are you ready to ring in the Year of the Pig? Chinese New Year starts on February 5th this year and is one of my very favorite holidays. It's simple, it's not commercial and it lets you get a little taste of a culture that might not be one you're super familiar with. We didn't celebrate (and were not even very aware) of Chinese New Year (AKA Lunar New Year) until we adopted our two boys from China. It's something we like celebrating to keep their birth culture alive and we've come to really look forward to the holiday…mostly because of eating, let's be real. Want some delicious Chinese New Year recipes? Of course you do, and I've got 'em. h

One fun thing you can do together to celebrate Chinese New Year is learn how to say and/or write “Happy New Year” in Chinese:

Cooking and eating is a big part of the Chinese New Year celebration. Chinese cooking is way easier than you think and some of these might cause you to rethink take-out. If you're looking for delicious Chinese New Year recipes, I've got 10 for you right here. Who's hungry?

All About Jill

Hey there and welcome! My name is Jill Robbins and this is my space on the internet. I’m happy you are here. Just so you know, if this weren’t the internet, I’d be smiling awkwardly and answering simple questions like “how are you today” with gems like “Me too!” and “Great, but I forgot to put on deodorant.” I’m that person.
