I don't even know when Easter is.   Just the two of us so no special meal here.

Nobody is making cheesecake?

Nobody?   😥

My usual pioneer woman 's English pea salad and ambrosia as well. Not sure what kind of cake to go with my son's homemade ice cream and strawberry frozen yogurt. He will do meat on the grill and veggies

Just a thought here:  strawberry shortcakes with fresh whipped cream?  

Edited to add:  I forgot to ask:  would you please share the English pea salad over in the Recipes forum?

Sorry not back with you sooner.  Very good with some broccoli thrown in too.

Brings back childhood memories!

My birthday is the end of March, if Easter was early, I would get a snowman cake, if late, a bunny cake.

I was raised in the northeast, an early Easter could be COLD!

It's really not that complicated to make.

I'm sharing this as a possibility for someone looking for an Easter dessert or gift.  Each bunny is made from one layer, iced and coated with coconut.  The noses and eyes are jelly beans.  (Milk chocolate bunnies would be cute, too.)

Your meal sounds wonderful!

Now we should challenge everyone to include a pic on Apr 22

I have the smaller size Ronco Rotisserie, I love it.   I've never tried a prime rib, I would eat it all,  my family likes all their beef well done.

I do mostly chicken, either a whole or leg quarters in the included basket.

Our Easter dinner is simple...but delish!

I'll be picking up a 5 lb boneless prime rib roast from our local butcher and we'll be using our Ronco Rotisserie. The only thing I will be making is a caesar salad. For dessert DH and I will be sharing a pkg of 2 double chocolate chip cookies by FatSnax.

DH and I have embraced a low carb lifestyle for our health

Crawfish boil.

Or

Chicken enchiladas.

At my daughters house.

Yum, either one.

I guess we are not at all a traditional family 😂!

We're going to a wonderful brunch then we're on our own for the rest of the day.

So far the 2 of us so I do know I will make potato salad, deviled eggs, salad or peas but either ham steak or something on the grill. Hope to eat early so I can take a nap later.

My grandmother used to make this lamb cake at Easter.  She had a two piece cast iron mold.  Wish I knew where the mold disappeared to.

@Allegheny You might be able to get one from Replacements or Ebay if you wish too.

I'm leaning toward brown sugar spiral cut ham.  The problem is, I love potato salad and deviled eggs.  I also am wanting an amazing corn souffle I do which I could eat the entire thing!

  I will not have two starches in one meal.  Whatever, we'll have glazed carrots and fresh green beans.

I'd love to do roasted vegies, but they have their traditional meal in mind, lol!  I'll do roasted vegies one evening.

I think dessert will be Lemon Meringue pie.
