It's vegan (until you add the cheese!) and even my DH loves it! Definitely add the corn, and mix a little like juice with the sourcream. Delicious. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-food-are-you-making-for-new-years#post-1311742 Wed, 01 Jan 2014 14:58:09 +0000 Boheme 1311742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm making a shrimp and wild rice casserole with black eyed peas and cornbread as sides </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-food-are-you-making-for-new-years#post-1311733 Wed, 01 Jan 2014 14:53:43 +0000 BananaPancakes 1311733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsH: Just what @lovehoneybee said, though sometimes we eat them with collard greens instead of cabbage. I actually hate the entire meal, which is why I'm not superstitious about missing it. I try to avoid the whole thing. Ha ha.</p> <p>So to answer your question, I do not think its yummy. Oh, and you're also supposed to leave at least one pea left on your plate or its considered bad luck. We love our superstitions in the south. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-food-are-you-making-for-new-years#post-1311724 Wed, 01 Jan 2014 14:45:34 +0000 Lindsay05 1311724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I may try honey garlic chicken thighs in the slow cooker.

I don't think I've ever eaten them either. Are they yummy? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-food-are-you-making-for-new-years#post-1311688 Wed, 01 Jan 2014 14:21:54 +0000 lovehoneybee 1311688@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsH: It's a black-eyed peas and rice dish. Southern tradition that eating it on New Year's Day will bring prosperity and good luck in the new year (the peas are supposed to represent coins). </p> <p>A lot of people I know serve it with greens (cabbage in my family) to represent money, and corn bread, which represents gold. I usually cook it with a ham hock but couldn't find one yesterday so I'm using bacon instead.</p> <p><a href="http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoppin" rel="nofollow">http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoppin</a>'_John </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-food-are-you-making-for-new-years#post-1311653 Wed, 01 Jan 2014 13:59:45 +0000 sweet_p 1311653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Traditional Korean rice cake soup for lunch and salmon and shrimp for dinner. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-food-are-you-making-for-new-years#post-1311633 Wed, 01 Jan 2014 13:42:49 +0000 MrsH 1311633@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BananaPancakes: @jedeve: @lovehoneybee: what is a hoppin john? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-food-are-you-making-for-new-years#post-1311550 Wed, 01 Jan 2014 12:19:06 +0000 jedeve 1311550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was going to do Hoppin John but we have so much leftover chicken noodle soup we will just eat that!
