What's for Easter Dinner?

[Swimnoid]

I apologize if this has already gone around but I have been out of town and off the boards for a week

So I need to go to the grocery for dinner fixins for tomorrow. What is everyone having? Anyone doing something different with their ham/lamb? Any ideas welcome!

 

[DMickey28]

There's a thread around somewhere, or multiple threads!

I am making Prime Rib Roast, Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Asparagus and Popovers. I need a desert, something easy preferrably that I can make today or in the morning. I actually will probably just end up buying something. Can't haul this 9 month pregnant body around the kitchen too much tomorrow!!!

Ham
Red Skin Mashed Potatoes
Stove Top Stuffing - Italian Style Roasted Garlic
Candied Yams
Corn
Lima Beans
Gravy
Croissants

Dessert willy probably be Easter Candy.

I am having something different

I am making my Vegetarian "Meatloaf" It is made out of soy protein instead of hamburger It is very good.

Fresh green beans (steamed) and corn (because some people don't like green beans)
Mashed potatoes
Rolls
Mac n' cheese (for the kiddies or young at heart)
I also made a big batch of deviled eggs to munch on beforehand

We will have the choice of banana cream pie, cocnut cream pie or french silk for dessert

DD just had her tonsills and adenoids taken out yesterday, so we're keeping dinner soft and simple. We'd normally have ham and asparagus, but she really loves those and we wouldn't want her to feel left out.

I'm making homemade (but a little mushy) mac and cheese. I make the kind with a rou (sp?) and garlicy cheese sauce. We'll just have sherbet or ice cream for dessert (I bought a ton of it).

Appetizer:
Tomato and mozzarella salad
Home made tomato and basil tortilla chips with dip
Tomato and basil pesto dip(recipe from Tony's at MK)with Italian bread to dip

Main course:
Since my sister cancelled having Easter at her house 3 days ago, my mom and I had to do it. We are having it at my house and I will make the app. and dessert and we are cheating with the main course. It is being catered!LOL
