I bought a few LED new light fixtures and was able to replace them in bedroom in 5-10 minutes each. But the ones in kitchen had a weird CFL format and not the usual lightbulb screw kind of holder so not sure what are my options.
I am attaching pictures of the current fixture and the new LED fixture that I bought. Any ideas appreciated.
Should I just snip the current holder and the new light bulb adapter and splice the black wire with the red and the white with the blue? Is that it?

No, you can't do that. The blue and red wires you see in the existing fixture come from the ballast for the CFL bulb. It's not the regular 120V. You'll need to remove the old fixture to get to the 120 Volts you need and install a new fixture.
