A collection of 30 Easter recipes including delicious options for main course dishes, casseroles, vegetable sides and decadent desserts. The ultimate menu plan for any Easter brunch or dinner.
Easter is one of those holidays that calls for a big feast with family gathered round. For us, it doesn’t feel like Easter if there isn’t a big ham on the table with all the sides and desserts the family can muster. That’s why I put together this list of tasty Easter recipes, so you can put together your own Easter feast or even add to it this year.
The kids always look forward to helping with Easter treats when the holiday rolls around. I like to try and find something useful yet fun when choosing what recipes they will get to make. I’ve included some cupcake or candy recipes specifically for Easter that the kids would love.
Easter has a lot of sides similar to Thanksgiving so it always feels like we get two Thanksgivings at our house each year. Of course, many of the sides are lighter and center around vegetables to match the spring vibes. It wouldn’t be an Easter feast without plenty of vegetables to choose from.
This list of Easter recipes covers all the way from dinner to dessert. Sometimes we just need inspiration or maybe a reminder of those classic recipes that are always a hit. Either way, this list of Easter recipes has you covered.

Jacqueline Debono says
This is a great collection of Easter dishes. I love all the veggies that are available this time of year. It’s almost difficult to choose which to serve. Here in Italy, lamb is traditional rather than ham. I usually roast a leg or shoulder but love the idea of the lamb shanks recipe in this list. Might do something different this year!
