Join the Sunday Funday Bloggers as we share some of our favorite Chinese recipes.......

I am hosting Sunday Funday this week.  Chinese New Year is on Friday so I asked the others to share recipes that would be wonderful to celebrate this fun holiday.  Let's see what they are sharing with us.......

My loyal readers know that our third daughter, fifth child is from China.  That means our Little Angel Face is half Chinese.  We have celebrated Chinese New Year since Jessica came to live with us when she was 15.  That's been 14 years ago now....time sure does fly.  This is the menu that I will be serving up this February 12 when we have family dinner.

You may notice that these egg rolls are not on here.  That is because Jessica's guy, Julien, is a vegetarian so I try to have as many options available for him as possible.  The recipe I am sharing today is easily made vegetarian, simply omit the chicken.  Or, if you prefer seafood, try these Shrimp Eggrolls.

We have Asian food around here a lot.  These Chicken Egg Rolls were served up at a Christmas gathering that started with Asian Appetizers and Sake Wine.  You can read about that gathering here where you will also find the Crab Rangoon recipe.

This is the year of the Ox.  Our eldest daughter and first child was born in 1973.  This is her year to shine.  Jessica tells us that during your year you should wear red underwear for luck so if you were born in 1973 or any 12 year increment thereof, run out and buy yourself some panties or briefs.  We all could use a little luck in this crazy world.
