11 Easter Recipe Ideas
Are your holiday meals stuck in a rut? For us the rut is ham and turkey. And then more ham and turkey. From November to January I probably eat the same green bean, potato, ham/turkey combo 10 times. It’s enough to do me in for the entire year. And I refuse to do it at Easter, and since I’m in charge of the meal I get to steer us as far from that worn out menu as possible.
And now I’m a hypocrite. Because look what’s first: Ham!!!
But it’s honey-orange baked ham, so that’s different, right? Hey, I have to stick to my traditional roots a little bit here.
Check out these options from some of my favorite websites, bloggers, and recipe hounds from around the web (and okay, a couple from me) and get some inspiration for your Easter table. I’m sorry that there aren’t images to go along with each of these–creating a gallery of the shots that wasn’t a visual mess got tricky so I gave up. Just bounce over to the main sites for their beautiful photos and flavorful recipes. 🙂
