Chinese New Year 2014

If you were looking for a reason to try some homemade Chinese food then this Friday is your chance.  Why not bring in the year of the horse in style.  Be sure to decorate with bowls of oranges as they are said to bring health and longevity. Here are a few ideas to get you inspired.

If you are not to into the traditional.  How about General Tso's slow cooked pork tacos with orange broccoli slaw.

If you do like traditional how about delicious sesame chicken.

Or you could try your hand at making your own fortune cookies.  Putting together your own fortunes could  be hilarious.

At the very least just add a side dish of cold sesame noodles as a small nod to CNY.
