Kwanzaa Party Menu Ideas

Kwanzaa Party Menu Ideas for a Bright and Vibrant Kwanzaa Celebration

By Gail Leino

Kwanzaa is an African holiday celebrated during December. The holiday involves much food, dancing, and poetry during the celebration. Here’s an idea of the sort of food you might like to serve for Kwanzaa:

You may find on the menu for Kwanzaa sweet potato pie, Okra, vegetarian stew, Futari, and Benne cakes. Depending on where you live you might even find Kwanzaa is celebrated with Christmas adding to the menu items you may find on the table.

Furtari is an African squash and yams dish. You will need 1 small onion, 2 tablespoons of oil, 1 cup of coconut milk, 1 pound Hubbard squash, ½ teaspoon of salt, ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon, 2 medium sized yams, and ¼ teaspoon of ground cloves. In a skillet you will cook the onion until it is tender, then stir in the remaining ingredients and heat until boiling. You will cook the dish until the vegetables are tender.

Sweet potato pie involves 2 cups of sweet potatoes, 4 tablespoons of margarine, 3 eggs, 1 cup of sugar, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon of nutmeg, ¾ cup of milk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla, 1 pie shell, and ¼ cup of chopped pecans. First of all, cook the sweet potatoes by steaming them in the microwave. In a food processor you mix the sweet potatoes with the butter. Then blend in the eggs, sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. The milk and vanilla is added next. You can bake the pie for 35- 40 minutes at 375 degrees.

The types of dishes traditionally served at Kwanzaa really are diverse and interesting. Why not add your own touch to one of the traditional dishes? Whatever you choose, your guests will be sure to enjoy everything on offer at your celebration.
