    Roast pork, portobello mushrooms, asparagus. Appetizers of long romaine leaves, feta cheese, craisins with pomegranate juice, low-fat ranch zigzagged on top. My guests/husby also have baked potatoes and deviled eggs. I’m all logged and good for the day.

    Happy Easter and Passover.

    For dinner I'm going to try making a meatloaf with a hardboiled egg in the center with baked potato and green beans on the side.
    For lunch maybe chicken breast and pasta.

    Ham, scalloped potatoes, broccoli, biscuits, and strawberry cream pie. Dinner for three usually means not many dishes to eat.

    Slow Cooker pulled pork on brioche buns with macaroni and cheese and baked beans. White cake with buttercream icing for dessert. Add to that the near endless supply of Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs!!!

    We don't do anything fancy for Easter. I worked til 1pm, no breakfast, went to the shops after work so didn't eat til 330pm (pumpkin protein pancakes and waffles with PB and chocolate spread, and fruit, and an iced protein coffee, then steak and salad for dinner. Jelly, frozen yogurt, berries for dessert.)

    I'm going to use the day to actually eat in a deficit as I've been eating a lot lately and I'm an atheist.

    Homemade lentil Shepard’s pie by yours truly. Made it for the family and it went down a treat. Super simple and filling. Followed by a ‘fat free’ peach upside down cake

    Same. Well, we're both agnostic and not visiting family who are Christian today because it's very awkward and sort of disrespectful to do so, in my opinion.

    Had some oatmeal and later doing a big veggie stir fry and homemade baked crab wontons with spicy sauce.

    Normally, I cook a large feast for me and my two kids, and we will feed off that for days. Ham or turkey, mashed potatoes, steamed veggies (usually carrots and broccoli because of the beautiful colours!), gravy, and buns. I'll either pick up a lemon meringue pie or carrot cake for dessert. I couldn't find a ham on sale, and we just had a turkey 2 weeks ago (so, my kids are over it and want a turkey break lol).

    Today, we are having seasoned chicken breasts (bone in), mashed potatoes with leftover turkey gravy (had some in the freezer), and steamed broccoli. The kids will have large amounts of chocolate for dessert - they are thrilled! I will have a piece of dark chocolate that the EB left in my basket lol

    Apple juice, white grape juice and chicken broth. When I made the appointment for that "over 50 diagnostic procedure", it didn't occur to me that April 2nd was the day after Easter...

    That's really unfortunate...!

    Pizza. We helped paint my sister and brother-in-law's house this weekend, so no one was in a mood to prepare an Easter spread.

    My husband and I are atheist so we had a day of house cleaning and I made New York strip with broccoli and sweet potatoes for dinner. The steak turned out delicious
