    greens
    candied yams

    I'll be at my mothers so. Rice and peas, macaroni pie, veggie meat substitute(sp), coleslaw and plantain. Easter egg for desert lol.
  • Whatever is available to eat, I will have some, unless of course it is something I don't like :) that is how I roll

    I`m loving this thread as I can see the difference in menus between our different countries,there`s few things i`ve never heard of before, i think from people in the states (going to google them and widen my knowledge), and i can also tell which people are from here in sunny england (sorry i mean freezing) due to you having a proper roast dinner lol. In my household we`re having lamb with roast potatoes, veggies, yorkshire pud and mint sauce and gravy. I`m going to have a bit of everything and log it as usual. My son bought me a small easter egg so will have a bit of that too and log it. You have to have a treat now n again, just a small amount! Happy Easter everyone. xx

    We're having brunch at our house:

    French toast bake
    Breakfast sausage
    scrambled eggs
    fruit

    Not entirely sure what else. Then later on probably some hot ham sandwiches and snacks.

    DEFINATELY not a low cal day!!

    I'm stationed away from family, but Husband and I will be having ham, mashed potatoes, some kind of veggie and dessert. Maybe apple pie or cheesecake. And we'll probably eat the squirtling's chocolate. He's only 2.5, so he isn't getting that much to begin with.

    We are having a good mix, I am hoping to stay within my calories, but my father is a master cook and he didn't tell me about the appetizers,,,, which is usually tapanade, crackers, cut up bread, cheeses, dips.... not cool... it is, but it's not if you are me.

    Prime Rib cooked to near perfection
    Mashed potatoes
    Mashed Turnip
    Rolls
    Coleslaw
    Cottage cheese
    Jello Fruit salad
    Peach pie

    and chocolate bunnies of course....
  • Grilled glazed salmon, roasted potatoes and English peas. YUM! We are hiking that morning so if I get a good calorie burn on I might make a dessert too. ;)

    You would probably like our menu! We get together with our best friends and do a Polish brunch. I make homemade perogies and kapusta. My friend gets REAL kielbasa. I'm going to eat in moderation.

    Mmmmm -- homemade pierogies! I have a Polish grandmother who makes absolutely delicious pierogies (potato & cheese are my favorite with mushroom being my second favorite). She has tried to teach me how to make them but I can never get them just right (mine are always too doughy :-(

    We don't really do family dinners for Easter. It never fails that several of us have to work. I'm almost certain that hubby is working that afternoon and evening, so probably just lunchables with the kids.

    Oh you poor things......come to my house for DINNER! :love:
