Apps will be celery, carrots, and deviled eggs, of course!
Pecan pie for dessert.


I'd love to figure this out, too. the HoneyBaked Ham store hams aren't great.

We make rabbit stew and lamb chops. (Some of the little kids have cried in the past when they found out they ate the Easter bunny but its a long running family joke).

The kids decorate a bunny cake and help to put together a bunny shaped veggie platter

For sides we usually do mac n cheese, potatoes, 2 greens and rolls.

I make lamb marinated in lots of garlic and rosemary and scalloped potatoes.

That sounds like a nice traditional Easter meal. There’s only three of us (all adults), so I’ll probably just make a ham, scalloped potatoes, and asparagus. We don’t do appetizers or dessert unless we have company.

What are you serving?

We only have 6 adults, 2 kids, so I’m thinking:
Ham
Scalloped potatoes (Gruyère)
Asparagus or green beans
Fruit salad
Yeast rolls

For dessert, a huge specialty chocolate egg filled with candies that my mom brings, the kids will have their Easter baskets, and my brother will probably bring a bakery dessert

Wine
Beer
Still and sparkling water
Sparkling apple juice

For an appetizer, crudite, crackers and homemade French Onion dip
