All too often, our Easter meals serve up heaping helpings of cholesterol, triglycerides, and heavy animal fats. From eggs to mayo-laden salads and whole baked ham, we struggle to find room for our own health and wellness. This year, we suggest celebrating Easter by bringing more veggies to your dinner table. With these tips, you won’t be caught without a plan!
What To Bring To Your Easter Celebration
Because we’re still finding our way through this pandemic, we’re planning a simple family celebration at home. If you’re looking for inspiration, here’s what’s on our holiday menu this year as we gather around the table:
- Curried roasted red pepper soup
- Vegetable antipasto salad
- White bean patties with fresh herbs
- Roasted butternut squash with lime tahini
Don’t Forget The Chocolate Bunny
Easter just doesn’t feel right without chocolate bunnies. Lucky for all of us chocolatiers are bringing their best:
- Lake Champlain’s Solid Dark Chocolate Easter Bunny (3.75 oz)
- Lake Champlain’s Solid Dark Chocolate Easter Bunny (10.5 oz)
- Jake The Milkless Chocolate Easter Bunny by No Whey (2.4 oz)
- Benny the Vegan Chocolate Easter Bunny by No Whey (2 oz)
- Chip the Vegan Chocolate Easter Bunny by No Whey(5 oz)
A New Twist On Tradition For Celebrating Easter
Beyond the dinner table, consider embracing those nostalgic holiday traditions in a new way. Rather than dying Easter eggs, consider grabbing some paint, glue, and decorative paper napkins to create DIY wood eggs with the family. Use these for your annual easter egg hunt, or fill eco-friendly hollow wood eggs with fruity snack packs and small toys.
Breathe New Life Into Spring
Looking for a new tradition for celebrating Easter? Consider planting an herb garden or starting seedlings with the family for an outdoor garden. We regularly use our Aerogarden for fresh herbs in our recipes because this system grows herbs all year around. Or, simply put some fresh flowers in a vase for a little boost of spring sunshine indoors!
