Easter is just 2 weeks away! Have you decided what you are making? I usually go to my parents for Easter and my mom cooks and I help. This year Easter is the same week of her birthday. That means everyone in my family pitches in and cooks dinner so my mom can relax. It takes some time to plan, especially since some of us live over 2 hours away, but it’s always fun trying new dishes.
We’ll have our family favorites which include Baked Pineapple and Hash Brown Casserole and Creme Egg Brownies for dessert. But whenever we cook instead of mom there are new dishes as well. I haven’t decided what I want to make yet and I need a side dish and a dessert. That’s why I’ve gathered a collection of recipes perfect for Easter dinner to not only help myself out but my readers as well!
