Easter Dinner

[RadiomanATL]

Carrots should only be eaten raw. If eaten cooked, the only acceptable version are those cooked with a beef roast, onions, and potatoes in an oven for hours.

Or killed by a shotgun.

I bet your veggie friends would like it, but how about sweet potato casserole then?

 

[AllieBaba]

I hate carrots cooked with roast.

I love fried carrots, though...carrots cut on the diagonal and cooked on high heat in some sort of oil. Seasoned with a little soy sauce or teriyaki.

Yum.

I'm making Easter dinner for 7 people, 2 kids, and a vegetarian.

What the hell do vegetarians eat for Easter dinner?

I'm likely making a ham, parsley (red) potatoes, asparagus with a hollandaise sauce, and I don't know what else yet.

Not rabbits.

Yeah Rabbits are part of the Bible easter story.

They will rise up from the dead on the dinner table if you prepare them for easter.

Nut loaf.
I don't actually celebrate Easter, but nut loaf sounded appropriate. And delicious...

 

[Luissa]

Ask the vegetarian what they would like to eat, then make that.

My sister in law makes vegetarian lasagna for my daughter and I when we go there for family functions. Or if it's more casual, veggie subs. Don't sweat it, I always hate it when someone makes a big fuss over us being 'vegetarian' and what they should make us to eat. A lot of time the sides are enough to fill up on.

I'm not a vegetarian but I always like the sides in Spring and Summer. (desserts too)

I always end up not eating much ham so I can have more sides.

I did this one year for Easter.. Haven't had time, since.. Daaaaaaaaamn is that time consuming.

 

[AllieBaba]

[Dis]

Mine didn't turn out that good. I did a couple pretty/floral ones, but I liked Skulls and Nine Inch Nails better.

Grass!

I just put the coloring out on the table and let the kids go nuts. Our eggs usually are kinda grubby looking, with little dark spots where the water pools on them...

Oh, it's the best when they want to dip them (still wet) in to each color, and you end up with shades of brown you didn't know existed, and a bright red bunny sticker (slightly crooked of course) right smack dab on the point of the egg, and then you go to give them a bath when all is said and done, and quietly wonder how they got egg dye on the middle of their back...

Let's just use natural brown eggs, not color them and say we did! What time is dinner?

Tell them if G-D wanted us to be veggies, he wouldn't have made animals out of meat.
