Easter Goodies, and Brunch and Dinner oh my!

I love this time of year, but come to think of it, if it relates to cooking I love pretty much anytime of year. Hearty, comforting food for winter (and of course lots of goodies), fresh, brightly colored food during spring  and tasty grilled anything in summer, and don't forget all the delicious fruits of the harvest-- apples, pumpkin, cinnamon for fall. Yum.

I'm hosting Easter this year and can't wait. I love seeing all the girls in their pretty dresses, watching my kids hunt for eggs, and enjoying the one time of year in St. George that you can usually go outside without melting!

Here's what's on our Menu:


Brunch

I'm keeping it simple this year (gotta get to church and with 3 little girls hair to do plus my own, you get the picture.)

Quiche Lorraine

Cinnamon Coffee Cake Muffins

an adaptation of this salad-  I using strawberries, kiwis, canteloupe and grapes. Maybe some pineapple too.

Juice


Next comes..........................
The treats. I mean we need something to tide us over until dinner. Right?

Peanut Butter Eggs-these will go perfectly in the kids baskets.
Sugar Cookies in Easter shapes and colors












and last but not least.......

Dinner

Deviled Eggs (and it's a good thing. I think my kids have been asking me to make them repeatedly since last Easter.)

Cheesy Roasted red pepper dip with bread and crackers

Maple Glazed Ham

Funeral Potatoes

Green Salad

Asparagus in some form

Crescent Rolls

Carrot Cake

Either this key lime pie

and something lemon for sure.

Happy Easter from My Sister's Kitchen
