What special foods do you eat at Easter?

chocolate chocolate and more chocolate yummy roll on easter lol,

think i'll just come eat w/you, sounds good. nothing like inviting myseld, huh i have no plans for eater. i'm not having anyone over that i know of. hope y'all have a nice day.

normally I eat turkey on easter, or if I cannot afford one then I will eat a ham. I am not sure what we will have everything is so expensive so I just eat whatever we got at the time.

In our family it's usually a ham dinner...with sweet potatoes etc....all the trimmings. This year I won't be really having an Easter dinner as the kids will be busy with my daughter in laws family....which is okay with me...LOL

Here in the Philippines we love cooking traditional foods namely pancit (Stir fried rice noodles) that we borrowed from the Chinese, sticky rice cakes sweetened with red sugar and with a little tang or zest of lime. In the provinces they love cooking pork or beef casseroles, you see during Good Friday up to Black Saturday there is a ban on beef and pork, we can only eat chicken or fish so people make a big deal of eating and preparing these dishes after just two days of fasting. Most of our casseroles have really rich sauces, anything from pork blood casseroles called Dinuguan (Bloody) and Calderetta which is either pork or beef with potatoes and tomato sauce. Other foods like grilled seafood and stir fried vegtables are also popular on easter. But the biggest things during this wonderful day is the Rice cakes that come in all shapes sizes and colors....Makes my mouth water just thinking about it...

As I am not a christian or a catholic, we actually don't celebrate it. But we use to have holidays for Easter, and my mum used to buy me chocolate egg as gifts, so my lil sister and I could have a happy Easter.

we eat little better foods during easter maybe because we don't have eaten ham during the whole week. we eat chicken and some noodles.

We always have ham and sweet rolls. Otherwise, not sure. oh yeah and loads of deviled eggs!

Hi cyn, Back home, we will have a lot of fasting and will always decrease the amount of rice and viand we are going to eat...and SUnday, we can cook anything before like chicken, pork, fishes and etc. I have no plan this time! Maybe both Filipino and AMerican recipe!

Chocolate of course and I like to have roast lamb dinner Easter Sunday, I also eat hot cross buns and can actually make them. But they are so cheap in the shops now it isn't worth it, I found a recipe where you make a bread pudding out of them using whisky, I'll have to try that out this year.

We don't do anything special for Easter. We have a ham, and whatever side dishes go with that. Usually we'll do mashed potatoes and a green bean casserole. One year I made bread in the shape of a bunny, and hollowed out the tummy and filled the tummy area with dip, then put out veggies around the bread for dipping. It was adorable and delicious. We don't plan on having company this year, so I probably will not bother to do something so complicated.

Hey cynthiann! I am going to make a turkey on Easter Sunday! My boyfriend will be working of Good Friday so he will by eating at his job. I will make the turkey with yams, veggies, biscuits, stuffing and I'm not sure what else. If my girlfriend is coming then I might make a roast beef too and see if she is going to make anything like her homemade potato salad and macaroni and cheese! And I will probably make a cake for dessert! My boyfriend likes this one kind of cake that I make that he eats with ice cream!

After a little fasting, wow so appetizing to eat the food we want to. Although no ham and other pork recipes as I have hypertension, roasted chicken will do and perfect with the chicken macaroni salad. Chicken adobo as well but for other members of the family they would be craving for mechado or menudo plus maybe sinigang (pork with tamarined soup plus veggies) grilled fish might be added as well. After easter for sure we will be gaining more pounds.

Hehe, I'm living in China all the time , so we don't the Easter festival. I'm here to see just to know more about the festival . ^_^ Glad to know more.

We normally have ham, a few sides, salad, and deserts. I am not really sure what we are having this year. Probably ham, but as far as sides and other things I have no idea right now.

This discussion makes me a little sad. I have not had Easter dinner or Easter celebration in 3 years . I have been overseas in Egypt. I have been home for other holidays like Christmas and New Year's but not Easter. I am going home soon in April, but I will still miss Easter. My grandma makes ham every year. We also have mashed potatoes & gravy, green beans, cole slaw, sweet potatoes, and biscuits. For desert berry pies and maybe an apple. I am really going to miss this but I already know the first weekend I am there my family will make up for it and have a nice dinner for me coming home!

Yum! I love Easter dinner and I cannot wait to eat it this year. My family has ham on easter. We also typically have potatoes, coleslaw, veggies, and rolls. We also have some kind of dessert. That usually changes each year. Although the dessert never feels necessary because we've all already had enough candy from our baskets. haha
