[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of great suggestions - I made Inas roasted vegetable orzo this weekend and it was wonderful! We did our vegetables on the grill since we had it going and it was great. Definitely a good one to make ahead.

I’d probably do a grain side (Inas orzo, or a lemony rice pilaf with peas and green onion?), a salad (easy to make ahead - maybe spinach strawberry pecans goat cheese), deviled eggs (I don’t even like them but so classic for Easter), and then a fruit / citrus dessert (something like lemon Bundt cake with whipped cream, Smitten Kitchen strawberry cake, lemon chess pie, etc) or a classic carrot or coconut layer cake.

Let us know what you go with OP![/quote]

Thanks for all these ideas!

I decided on cut fruit, macaroni and cheese (kid-friendly recipe), potato salad, and an ugly salad.  (I started the ugly salad chain).  I will make it all the day before except the salad.  I’ll make the ugly salad in the morning so it has a few hours to chill per the recipes).

I def want to try some of these other ideas in the future, especially some of the orzo recipes.  This time bc so many kids are coming, I decided on mac for the pasta.

Also that fruit compote thing looks amazing.  I’m storing that away too.[/quote]
