As the kids get older I love starting new traditions that we can have fun with and learn about new cultures. So, imagine my delight when I found out that Friday, February 16th is the beginning of the Chinese New Year. I decided to put together some fun Asian dishes from Ling Ling. We started with the Chicken and Vegetable Potstickers which were delicious and the perfect start to our Asian inspired meal. We then moved on to the Yakiniku Beef Fried Rice that is full of rice, garlic-ginger sauce, beef, green beans, yellow carrots, red bell peppers and green onions.
My kids thought it was delicious and very filling. Each box of fried rice comes with two packets that serve 2 people, so we made both packages and had plenty left over for lunch tomorrow. My son especially loved the potstickers and dipping sauce.
All of our items were found at our neighborhood grocery store. Click here for a store locator to find out where you can purchase Ling Ling products.

I’m making some kimchi this week! Like, literally making it from scratch!
Also, I heard about no sweeping before but no idea about greeting your friends with tangerines, that’s such an interesting tradition!
I love learning about such traditions!
OMG I just want to give all my friends Oranges when I see them next! HAHA! That would be actually really cute 😉
Yum, we love Ling Ling and make it often for dinner! It’s so easy, even my teenager can make it.
These are some fun traditions!
It’s very interesting to learn about New Year’s Chinese traditions. Greeting friends with oranges sounds so nice (and healthy) and I bet all the children are excited about the red envelopes.
I love learning about different traditions and these sound love some lovely ways to both see in the new year and bring into your own plans throughout the year.
I can’t believe that it is nearly Chinese New Year already, how quickly does time go by? Ling Ling looks great, do you know if they have any vegetarian Chinese options by any chance?
We don’t usually celebrate Chinese New Year so it’s fun to learn about the traditions that they have for this holiday. I think the fried rice is a must try!
We love Chinese food! We’ve never celebrated this holiday before, but we homeschool, so learning about new traditions is always fun!
LING LINGS are AWESOME! They sell them in costco and we always love it! great appetizer and a great snack for the whole family!

The Chinese have a lot of traditions that you can incorporate with your own family and I think these are awesome suggestions. They have a wonderful culture!

Thanks for all the traditions. I have a Chinese sister in law. They live in CA so we don’t see to much of them as they get older. But when they do come she always teaches me something about their cooking . We love Chinese food a lot.
