What is for Easter Dinner?
 

I just found out my brother and sil are also coming for dinner on Sunday.....so all dh's inlaw's will be here :lol:

I want to keep it low carb, but also lower fat, and Im looking for inspiration! What is on your menu?

Today its cleaning......cuz company's comin'
Then some grocery shopping tomorrow, once Ive decided what Im going to cook.

Ham, Green Salad, Deviled Eggs, Green Beans with Olive Oil. Snacks such as olives, cheeses, celery with cream cheese, chopped brocolli and cauliflower. For dessert, carb-free jello with whipped topping. This is what I will be having. Something for everyone.( Forgot the ranch dip.)

I'm thinking we'll stay home this year for Easter. So we've got a ham in the freezer I should take out and defrost. Maybe some green beans. And a lettuce salad for us. Potatoes for the girls. I'll have to check the carb count on some other stuff but so far I think that's what I'm going to plan. Going to try and stay away from the pistacchio salad (I believe it's also called watergate salad and other names as well. lol)

We are having company so Ill have mixed food.
Turkey, a Roast, some assorted veggies, Mock coliflower mashed potatoes, for deseert 2 pies and Ill make the cheesecake in little dishes so at least I can havea small taste.

Ham, cheese potatoes for the guys and either grilled asparagus or grilled zucchini -- haven't decided yet.

How do you make the mock cauliflower mashed potatoes? I haven't tried them . Are they tasty? I do eat cauliflower, so would probably like this. Thanks.
