I'm trying to establish our young family's holiday traditions- I think I am leaning Southern:
Toni Tipton-Martin's jubilee pork chops Black eyed pea fritters Cornbread Creamed collards We were gifted a ham at Thanksgiving, and I just cannot with ham right now. |

For NY day, we do brunch: spiral ham, corn pancakes or waffles, frittata, fresh fruit. I make a black eye pea salad for those wanting to partake.
We do some form of asian take-out for NYE (last year Chinese, this year Japanese), so that covers the noodles on NYE tradition. |

Nothing for NYD. We make dinner for NYE, and the next day is leftovers, and hanging out in PJs.
NYE Pernil (Puerto Rican style Pork Roast) Rice with Pigeon Peas Pasteles Green salad |

We do any combo of pork and greens for New Years Day. This year it’ll be pasta with Italian sausage and spinach in a garlic cream sauce.
NYE is just a non-stop parade of appetizers 😍 |

DH's family is coming over for NYD. Part of that family can't eat pork, which is totally fine and at least helps me eliminate ham, etc.
We're thinking of the following: smoked beef brisket (in our smoker) a big platter of chicken wings (from nearby store that does great chicken wings) homemade Mac and cheese homemade chocolate cake probably some various apps The other family members will bring: crudites tray fancy salad another dessert of their choice |

This sounds good! Any recipe link? I was thinking of ham, but this sounds better. |

| My kids are still too young, but eventually I’d like to do a fondue NYE tradition. |

NYE we have started this tradition of some fun apps- charcuterie and cheese boards, pigs in a blanket, stuffed dates, baguette, caviar and creme fraiche on blinis, sparkling cider for the kids. Maybe butterscotch pudding for dessert this year.
Because I’m burned out from the holidays, I found this idea for a sheet pan New Years with ham, mini sweet potatoes and marshmallows, green beans and biscuits: https://damndelicious.net/2021/12/16/sheet-pan-holiday-dinner/ |

| Fondue NYE, nothing special on NYD. Probably an EMG day (Everythong Must Go from the refrigerator - I pull out all the leftovers, and everyone takes what they want). |

I don’t really use a recipe, but it’s pretty similar to this: https://lidiasitaly.com/recipes/ziti-with-broccoli-rabe-and-sausage/ Except I use a large package of fresh spinach instead of the broccoli rabe, 1 lb. sausage instead of half, 1/2+ cup cream instead of 1 cup pasta water (it’s still really good with just pasta water though), and LOTS of grated pecorino or parm stirred in at the end. I also cook the sausage first and then add the garlic only a minute or two before adding the spinach, so it cooks but doesn’t burn. I usually use orecchiette but it’s good with any chunky pasta shape. |

| Pork and sauerkraut of course! With mashed potatoes. |

| We do charcuterie and just graze all night. This year I’m attempting homemade focaccia. |
