What's cookin' for Easter Dinner, 2011

[LindaLou]

Grilling sounds like the perfect solution for a beautiful day! It will also help to keep the house cooler, I hope.

We are having a traditional ham dinner today. Makes dinner easy and we can enjoy the great weather too.

Happy Easter to All!

We are having home made pizza and vanilla ice cream

 

[Zhizara]

For lunch, Ramen with surimi. Dinner will be more of the pork taco chili barbeque stuff I made yesterday. It had it's own flavor. The pork was nice and tender. Maybe with cheese and sour cream in crispy taco shells.

 

[Selkie]

I'm invited to a friend's house for a ham dinner, and I don't have to bring anything! (I did offer...)

...and NO DISHES TO WASH!!!

 

[pacanis]

Grilled burgers and potato salad sounds good! I'll keep that in mind for later today.
Meanwhile, breakfast will quesadillas with monterey jack cheese and the pico de gallo I made last night.

 

[Aunt Bea]

Well all of the heavy work is done and it is only 11:15 ! Quietly humming Jimmy Buffet's its five oclock somewhere.

Cobb salad, Conejo al Chillindron, baby carrots sautéed in butter, yellow rice, and, for dessert:

Stuffed cornish game hens, baked sweet potatos, some kind of veggie - might try braised celery, gravy from drippings and "claufouti pie" - its an apple/cherry custard pie, smells divine (came from a magazine so I don't think I can publish the recipie here).

 

[pacanis]

I've got the elbow macaroni cooling, the hard boiled eggs cooling, and the dressing made up for some macaroni salad. I'll be mixing that up soon. I'm thinking about throwing a rack of ribs on the grill for the meat.

 

[Katie H]

Yep, just the two of us so I've got the ham enjoying the oven. Letting it cook low and slow all afternoon. Should be just about perfect by mealtime.

I made a sweet potato casserole yesterday that'll go in to finish baking about 30 minutes before serving time and we'll have the last of the Italian green beans from the freezer as another side.

Just finished putting the coconut buttercream icing and coconut on the Coconut Pineapple Cake we're having for dessert. Omigosh, the icing is to die for!!!!!

 

[Somebunny]

Just the two of us. DD, SIL and granddaughter live 3 hrs away. Just too long of a day in the car for an 18mo old and there is not a Monday holiday here so they have to do it in one day.
So.....we are having Salmon with brown sugar/smoke glaze. Creamed new potatoes and peas, and a salad of spring greens and strawberries or maybe pears. DH's Rhubarb crisp with vanilla ice cream for dessert.

 

[PrincessFiona60]

I'll be having some sliced strawberries with honey and basil soon for my dessert.

 

[buckytom]

we had a dietz and watson ham for christmas that was outstanding, so i hope the one we're having today is as good.
also, grilled asparagus, steamed stringbeans, pierogies, farmer's cheese, polish potato salad, coleslaw, and polish rye bread.

dessert is a couple of mini fruitti di boscos.

This was dinner.... oh, and we had some unexpected guests show up for dinner.

Looks like you need to call the exterminator... you have a bad infestation.

Bunnies are great! What is that on top of your ham?
