What are you cookin for Easter Sunday?
 

So, this is a challenge for me. I usually just cook a whole bunch of yummy food, don't worry about what we are eating, and stuff ourselves, and then have the leftovers for diner again that night. But this year, I have been doing some searching for Low-Cal recipes that fit into my calories alloted per day. I think we are having a Ham, Yams, and then a veggie, and then trying the blackberry cake that I found on this website. What are you having?

Roast Cornish game hens with wild rice, mushroom, and barley stuffing
Deviled eggs
Whole-wheat challah
Mashed chipotle-maple sweet potatoes
Steamed asparagus spears with hollandaise sauce
Apple pie

Roast chicken, green veggies, roast potatoes.
Don't really do desserts.

When I was a child, chicken was Really expensive, it was the real treat meal that we just had twice a year, Christmas and Easter.

Chicken Cordon Bleu and steamed asparagus. Chicken breasts (ultra thin for me) rolled up with one slice each of ham and asiago cheese. I usually do a fatty sauce but obviously now I won't be ... no heavy cream, no egg to roll in would be good too. I wonder if plain yogurt would go well?

Skipping the sugary lemon bars this time. I actually would, and just abstain, but I am baking for something else (a low sugar birthday pie later that same week) and do plan to have a small slice of that.

I am making a turkey, stuffing (using broth instead of oil), broccoli rice casserole, mashed potatoes & cauliflower, green beans, & for dessert, cheesecake dip (which is surprisingly not nearly as diet-killing as it sounds!).

Easter will be hard for me. My Aunt is the family cook. She adds butter to everything. I just might take my own food over.

Not a clue. :dizzy:

We are skipping easter this year. Not that it matters anyway since we are agnostic. Will probably just order something since we are having people over.

My job is to bring a dessert. low Cal Strawberry Shortcake. :)

Stuffed Pork Tenderloin, green beans, smashed cauliflower. I might, just MIGHT fix homemade dinner rolls if we feel like being bad.

Not traditional but my family's favorite--PUMPKIN PIE for dessert!

My family doesn't have any special plans yet, and I already know that I'm working. It should be fairly easy to get away with not having a huge dinner fest. And if my mom decides to cook something (once in a blue moon), I'll just have a teeny bit and a BIG salad.

I don't have to cook that day.

i'm having people over for easter brunch even though i'm jewish cause i love entertaining:chef::hun:. think i'm gonna do a giant egg scramble with melted pepper jack cheese and onions and peppers and then skillet potatoes, spinach salad, and mimosas. mmm.
unfortunately no breads, muffins, or bagels cause of passover.:lol::bunny2:

turkey breast, greenbeans, corn on the cob,mac and cheese,dumplings,rolls.
for me it will be a little layered salad and greenbeans and turkey. I might even have a deviled egg half..if i make any.
