Easter Menu?
6
Thu, 03-20-2008 - 1:04pm

So, I know there's been a bit of talk here and there, but does everyone have a good menu already planned out? I am mostly responsible to do it, and I am just not coming up with much.


Frankly, I know I'll do the "illeagal ham" with the potatos. But that's where I want the illegal to stop. I thought about a broccoli/cauliflower cheese casserole and some asparagus. And really... I just don't know? Maybe homemade wheat rolls?


I am used to doing holidays BIG and VERY unhealthy. I don't want to go overboard, but I don't want to completely be different. That just is so hard for me on a traditional holiday.


Input please!

Here's my Easter menu:


Ham (served with a variety of mustards)

Tri-Color Roasted Rosemary Potatoes (red, white and sweet potatoes)


Roasted Asparagus w/ Lemon Zest


Mescalum Salad w/ Goat Cheese & Pine Nuts


Strawberries & Whipped Cream


(so the only thing I need to avoid are the regular potatoes and that's easy!)

I just found out today that I'm putting on a lunch/brunch for several people.

We're joining friends, so I'm bringing deviled eggs, illegal potato casserole, and very yummy (legal) spinish casserole.

I just wanted to add that I love baking and I do bake non-SBD friendly recipes once a month or so.

Well, I had everything all planned out at one point, and have since changed it all up!

Sue, your menu sounds so so good!


Everyone: Great ideas in here. I am narrowing mine down quite a bit, so we'll see! I know I found out the ham is legal, so I am excited about that.


I will be making homemade wheat rolls


Spinach casserole


Potatoes (which I will have little or none of)


and ??? My sister in law will help decide the rest and we'll cook it all up together.
