Looking for inspiration for your Easter Meal Plan? I've got you covered with this simple menu that will leave you plenty of time to enjoy the holiday.
One of my favorite things in the world is planning my holiday menus. That is crazy, perhaps.
I truly love the anticipation and creating special meals that I know the whole family will love.
This year, I'm creating a decadent Easter meal featuring a Snake River Farms Kurobuta Bone-in Ham.
The ham is easy to order online and was delivered right to my door. Getting quality meat isn't always easy locally, and the quality of meat makes such a difference in the outcome. A special bonus that I also love: the hams arrive fully cooked and smoked. One less thing for me to worry about!
A part of Agri Beef Co., Snake River Farms and Double R Ranch are a family owned and operated business dedicated to producing the highest quality of beef and pork in the United States. The animals are raised on small family farms in the Midwest and Idaho, where there is a commitment to quality, sustainability and humane treatment. They work hard to implement sustainable practices such as local crop sourcing, water reclamation and composting through every step of the life cycle.
To go along with our ham dinner, we will be having Roasted Asparagus, which is one of my husbands favorites. This asparagus recipe is so simple that you can even delegate it to one of your kids. (Supervised of course!)
I also am making and amazing Goat Cheese Gratin.
This is a decadent dish that you can make healthier with the use of my quinoa cream.
