Anyone have any great recipes for easter?

Hi!!

I have to cook this Easter and all my family members are looking forward to my cooking but are not technically on a "diet". Does anyone have any good recipes that would be healthy for me but still taste amazingly to my guests ( enough to trick them into not knowing its healthy lol).

Thanks!! :)

  • Look up stuff on howsweeteats.com
    There is a variety of recipes you could try and they are healthy (most of them). For Easter, I am making the lemon cake with the marshmallow frosting. I plan to have a smaller piece, but I know everyone else will love it.
  • You should for sure look at chocolatecoveredkatie.com Best diet time treats there are.

    Pork tenderloin is very lean, tasty and easy to make. I just made one by rubbing spicy brown mustard over the tenderloin and topped it with a lot of cracked black pepper. Just put it in a baking pan with brussels sprouts which I lightly drizzled with olive oil and pepper and roasted for the recommended 25 min per pound at 425 degrees. Yummy!
