    I'm making dinner for my family. I'm vegan so all the food will be but I can veganize any recipe. Just need to find some good suggestions that my company will like too

    I'm going to make this for the first time for our gathering-you could sub the bacon/cheese and mayo with vegan options (I saw vegan labeled mayo last night when I was picking up regular).

    I've never associated Easter with any particular food.... Besides chocolate and hot cross buns, but they wouldn't make much of a meal.

    Just make what you'd normally make for a dinner party. And maybe have a chocolate dessert :)
    Thank you ! That is the weird part, I don't actually know what Easter food is. So I guess there is no traditional foods?

    Ham is usually the go-to centerpiece (just take a look at store ads and they're full of ham deals). Lamb is also popular.

    We're hosting this year and the menu is ham, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, corn, bread/rolls, 7 layer salad (recipe posted above), a family dish that's connected to husband's Dutch heritage (a sweet bread pudding with apples), macaroni and cheese and then Heath bar dessert.

    Thank you very much. I have vegan mayo because my boyfriend eats it. I also know how to make vegan bacon.

    I also really appreciate everybody being so understanding about my dietary choices :)

    Rabbit stew is healthy. Plus, you get to tell the kids that you're eating the Easter bunny.

    My Dad used to tell us that chicken kiev is fried hamsters.

    And that calls for Marcos Zapata's Last Supper with Cui (basically guinea pig):
