Special Holiday Meals: Good Luck Meal

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog1 Comment

Sometimes we feel that we just need a little extra luck, or maybe it is the superstitions of a day like Friday the 13th that makes us a little weary… truth be told, we just need to pray about it. However, a good meal doesn’t hurt either… just for fun, of course!

This is a semi-traditional menu plan that we came across somewhere, and we tweaked it to fit with current-day dishes:

Good Luck Meal

for Friday the 13th or any ‘unlucky’ day

BBQ Pork Ribs

Black-eyed peas, Greens, or a Good Luck Salad ** see below

Hoe Cakes

Pineapple Upside Down Cake

**Good Luck Salad

Pick your favorite salad greens and veggies, arrange them in the shape of a horseshoe, and serve… lol 🙂

Mr. Awesome loves Chicken and Rice and so do I, my version is usually a little more like a Spanish Rice version but this is more of how he remembers it from his childhood.

This recipe is pretty easy to make and it’s also easy on the budget as you can throw in your leftovers to make this a delicious meal.
