The best recipes for the New Year's table. Baked potatoes with mushrooms

As everyone already knows, the coming 2019 will be held under the sign of the Yellow Earth Pig. And therefore, according to the already established tradition, we began to take this fact into account when preparing for the solemn day.

We are trying to find out better what to expect from the coming period. We read horoscopes, trying to figure out how the Symbol of the next 365 days can affect our lives. And of course, we first of all prepare for the holiday, taking into account what the Master of the Year loves! To appease him, and so that he can help make the next part of our lives successful in all respects!

And for this we select the appropriate festive outfit for ourselves. We buy necessary and beautiful gifts for friends and relatives, and of course we lay out a beautiful festive table.

And there is not a single housewife or owner who would not ask himself the question “What to cook for the holiday table?” After all, this question is by no means rhetorical. On December 30 and 31, we will all put on aprons and settle down in our kitchen for a long time. After all, you need to have time to prepare appetizers, salads, main courses, and desserts.

And in order not to forget anything, and not to prepare anything unnecessary, you need to create a menu in advance. It will help you plan what you need to buy. Purchase items that can be stored for a long time in advance, and perishable food buy it the day before.

When compiling a menu for the Year Yellow Pig it is necessary to take into account some features. Let's look at the wishes for the holiday menu.

Firstly, Pig is an omnivore, which means we will prepare dishes that are completely different and tasty.
secondly, the Pig doesn’t mind different types meat, and he will be happy with beef, lamb, chicken, fish and seafood. Do not forget that we do not serve pork in any form this evening.
Thirdly, the image of the Master of the Year in the design of dishes will be very useful.
fourthly, the bright, colorful design of the dishes will please Piggy. Who would refuse when such a holiday is organized in his honor?
fifthly, dishes should be homemade, tasty and prepared with love. It is always more pleasant to deal with a calm domestic Boar than with a hungry, angry boar.
Sixth, do not abuse strong drinks. Otherwise, you might accidentally fall asleep at the table, burying your face in the salad. And then everyone will not compare you with the Pig in the best way!!!

However, you can spend the outgoing year with dignity. To say thank you to the owner of the passed part of life is to thank the Yellow Dog for all the good things that she has done for us. Therefore, you can carry it out by making a small salad with her image.

Here are the main wishes for the menu. If you manage to follow them, it will be just great! The Boar and the Pig will not ignore this. They will understand that we show this respect and honor to them.
