14 Tasty and Easy Recipes for Easter

Sharing is caring!

Are you hosting Easter at your house this year or are you taking a covered dish to a family member’s home?

For the past few years my sister has hosted Easter at her house and we all bring a dish. Sometimes we do a traditional Ham dinner, some years we just all bring some sort of casserole and some years we do a themed dinner, like Italian food. Then, after we eat, the adults hide eggs and the kids have a fun hunt.

Last year I took the Crockpot Navy Beans and Ham. This year I am taking two dishes of Pioneer Woman’s Rosemary Potatoes. And, I think I am going to bake a Pink Lemonade Cake too. Sounds good, right?

If you are still on the fence about what to cook, what to take, on the hunt for a crowd pleasing dessert or wondering what to make for breakfast as you plan to cook all day, I have an awesome list for you.

14 Easter Recipes

1. Crockpot Hashbrown Casserole– have this going the night before Easter in the crockpot and when you wake up Easter morning breakfast is done. What a sweet surprise. Now you can focus on getting ready for your guests or getting out the door to travel and see family.
2. Ham and Cheese Pasta Bake– this is a great pasta and ham casserole to take to an Easter gathering. So yummy!
3. Crockpot Navy Beans and Ham– this is what I took last year. If you’re taking a dish to a gathering, this is the one to take! Serve it with sweet cornbread and everyone will love, love, love it!
4. Crockpot Spinach Artichoke Dip– an appetizer does not get much easier than this!
5. Grilled Salsa Steak Appetizer– if you’re signed up to bring appetizers, or if you are hosting at your house and want something to hold everyone over, make these yummy and super easy appetizers!
6. Easy Italian Side Salad– this simple side salad can easily be duplicated for mass quantities. Easy dressing included!
7. Corn Casserole– goes perfectly with ham. Just sayin’.
8. Crockpot Green Bean Casserole– if you are signed up to bring a side dish, this traditional family favorite is so easy to make in the crockpot!
9. Crockpot Garlic Mashed Potatoes– another awesome side dish that you can get going in the slow cooker while the ham is baking in the oven. And, once you make mashed potatoes in the crock, you will never make them any other way.
10. Maple Bacon Cupcakes– make these for dessert. Everyone will be amazed!
11. Strawberry Refrigerator Cake– total score and super simple!
12. No Bake Blueberry Banana Pie– yes, that says no bake! Add it to your list.
13. Pina Colada Cake– Easter makes me think of desserts just like this!
14. Strawberry Shortcake Kabobs– again, no baking. Just simple and fun for the kids!
