Easter Dinner Ideas (other than Ham)
While ham is thought of as the traditional Easter Dinner staple, I like to mix things up from time to time and got to thinking, there are probably other people that do too. But if you grew up in a traditional home like I did, what else do you serve for Easter besides ham?
I started by thinking about the kinds of foods that I like. Then I thought (just a little) about how pleasing those options would be to my guests. After ruling out some of the less popular items (no Octopus on the Easter Platter!) I went in search of some appealing recipes. I think I found some great ones, and now, just need to narrow it down or I’ll be cooking for days!
