We had a delightful Easter Sunday with friends:

Appetizers: Mascarpone and goat cheese smoked salmon torte, black olive tapenade with cream cheese, spicy rosemary pecans

Main: beef filets on the grill, roasted asparagus amd a field green salad with dijon vinagrette.

Dessert: Small lemon tartlettes and chocolate bunnies for dessert…and a little wine too

So many great things to choose from… fried shrimp, asparagus with tofu dip, beef with morels, celeriac parsnip puree with horseradish, sugar snap peas and jumbleberry pie!

Since we aren’t able to travel back to the NE this year, my hubby told me that the apron gets hung up this year and we’re going out for dinner! That never happens. After church and dinner out…nap time! Today we took a drive to see the bluebonnets. Great day! Happy Easter!

The traditional Ukrainian Orthodox Paska meal (below) plus asparagus and scalloped potatoes. The feast celebrates the holiday and ends the fasting of Lent and the strict fast during Holy Week. There’s a lot of cooking ahead of time, then Saturday, baskets with representative foods and psyanky are taken to church to be blessed.

Ham
Kielbasa
Pierogi
Holupki
Red Beets/Horseradish
Hard Boiled Eggs
Paska
Babka
Easter Cheese
Butter molded as lamb

My husband doesn’t really love ham (which is traditional Easter to me), and since we’re not having a crowd for Easter dinner, we’re going to do a big brunch instead.

Definitely going with the sweet potato delight and green bean casserole as my sides.

We are having Easter at our house this year. I’ll be cooking for 20, so the more sides there are… well the more work for me but I enjoy doing it!
