Easter is a time when many families gather together and enjoy each other’s company over an extra-special meal. Sometimes one person prepares the entire meal, and other times it is a combined effort. I am sharing some Easter recipes for a potluck, but you can make these at home too. These just happen to transport easily for an Easter brunch. Either way, it’s a wonderful time for families to come together and celebrate each other and their religious beliefs.
When the kids were younger, we used to enjoy Easter egg hunts at home and then we would host an Easter brunch for the whole family. I just loved watching the egg hunts, going to Easter service, and seeing all the children dressed in their best. When they were older, we often traveled and went to Grandma and Grandpa’s home to celebrate together. It is a wonderful time to celebrate the season and the blessings we have.
