In general, holiday meals come with a lot of pressure. It is not just any other day. It is a special occasion. Family and friends are going into this with high expectations. You’re left in a tough position. Am I going to do the same old recipes, or will I spice it up with a new tradition. If you want to bring something new to the table this Easter or next year, allow me to assist you. The types of dishes you take from this top 10 will reflect the message you want to give. You can continue the fun Easter bunny theme in to your food. Also, there are recipes that are a bit more classy and elegant. If you have children, feel free to do a little bit of both. In addition, I have provided recipes that are vegetarian friendly. Sometimes holiday meals can be very rich and heavy. At times, vegetarians and vegans feel left out of the equation. Providing fruit and vegetables is good for everyone and appreciated by these two lifestyle choices.
