My entire life lemon dessert recipes have been some of my favorite treats. I’m not sure if its a southern thing or not, but summertime to me means lemons!!

Are you ready for a super easy lemon bar recipe? Seriously, anyone can make this homemade dessert.

Ingredients Needed To Make These Delicious Lemon Bars

• 2 Sticks of Butter
• 2 Cups of Unbleached Flour
• 1/2 Cup of Powdered Sugar
• 1/4 Teaspoon of Salt
• 2 Cups of Sugar
• 4 Eggs
• 5 Tablespoons of Fresh Lemon Juice
• Lemon Zest with Powdered Sugar to Garnish

Step by Step How to Make Classic Lemon Bars

1. Start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Line a baking dish (9X13) with parchment paper.
3. Grab a bowl and mix the melted butter, powdered sugar, flour, and salt. Mix with a fork but not too much.
4. Put in the oven and bake for 20 minutes.
5. While baking, start beating the eggs in a different bowl.
6. Combine the sugar and lemon juice with a whisk until combined.
7. Once done, put the lemon mixture into the crust after it’s baked as soon as it comes out of the oven.
8. Once combined, put back into the oven to bake for 15 minutes.
9. After that time passes, take and remove from the oven, put on foil, and put back in the oven to bake for another 15 minutes.
10. Once they are done baking, take them out of the oven and dust them with the powdered sugar, and let them cool. You want to serve them at room temperature, ideally.

How do you zest a lemon?

Zesting a lemon isn’t hard at all. All you’ll need is a zester and a clean lemon to make it happen.

Start by washing off the outside of the lemon. Then take your lemon and start using the zester on the outside of the rind. Lemon zest should only be the yellow part of the lemon so if you’ve gone down to the white, you’ve gone too far. (if that happens, you just need to rotate it and start another yellow side of the lemon)

Do lemon bars need to be refrigerated?

They don’t have to be but many people prefer them to be. If you do put them in the fridge then you need to have them in a container with a lid to keep them fresh.

Can I make lemon bars in advance and freeze them?

You can! This is such a simple dessert and they’re easy to freeze as well. This is a great way to be able to meal prep and save the dessert to enjoy later!

What should I bring to an Easter Brunch?

Figuring out what to bring to an Easter Brunch shouldn’t be stressful. Just remember that having a brunch actually means that it could be comprised of a wide variety of foods. Lunch foods, breakfast foods, appetizers, desserts, and treats are all fair game to bring to a brunch. (and if you’re ever in doubt, just ask the person who is hosting the brunch about what you can bring!)

What do you serve at an Easter buffet?

Easter buffets have some of the best foods on them. If you’re wondering what you should serve at your own Easter buffet, you’ll be surprised by how many options you truly have.

Ham is always a popular Easter entree but don’t forget about all the sides, too. Potatoes, salads, bread rolls, casseroles, and desserts like jello, cakes, cupcakes, and pies are all perfect for an Easter Buffet.

Why Casseroles are Perfect for Easter Breakfast

Casseroles are such an amazing recipe to have on hand! Not only are they hearty and perfect for feeding a crowd but they’re also super simple to make as well.

Casseroles can be made ahead of time, frozen and thawed out to bake later, and great for reheating and eating as leftovers as well. Since Easter tends to start earlier in the morning for some people, having a breakfast for people to nosh on when they wake up is a simple and delicious solution.

Are Make-Ahead Breakfasts Good for Easter Sunday?

In my opinion, yes. Easter is a holiday that is all about families gathering and being together but that doesn’t mean that people don’t have different schedules and agendas.

Many people feel that the start of Easter can be rushed by trying to get everyone and everything ready for the day. The easy solution is to have a make-ahead breakfast recipe where you can do a lot of prepping and planning the day before. This not only frees up more of your time but it also takes away a lot of the stress as well.

I have been making this chicken broccoli ring recipe since the late 90’s. It is a family favorite that the kids and adults love at my house.

If you are looking for recipes using rotisserie chicken, you’ve come to the right place. We have a ton of ideas here! Using a deli chicken helps cut cook time and prep time down for any recipes. It’s a great option when you need to get dinner on the table fast.

Let me show you just how easy this is to make.

If you don’t have a rotisserie chicken on hand, there are many other options. Any shredded or diced cooked chicken will work. You can also used canned chicken.

Here are the ingredients you will need to make this chicken broccoli ring that is very similar to the recipe from Pampered Chef.

Ingredients Used to Make Chicken Broccoli Ring

Here are the items you want to add to your trip to the grocery store if you don’t already have these items on hand in your pantry and fridge.

• refrigerated crescent rolls
• cooked chicken
• fresh chopped broccoli
• shredded cheddar cheese
• diced bell pepper
• mayonnaise or Miracle Whip
• dill
• garlic
• salt
• egg white, lightly beaten

This comes together quickly and is absolutely delicious. To get the printable version of this recipe with measurements, scroll to the end of the post.

For my recipe I do it a little differently than the Pampered Chef recipe because I am making it for a large family. I make two rings at a time or one ring and one braid.

First you want to preheat your oven to 375 degrees.

Next, either use shredded rotisserie chicken or just dice/chop the cooked chicken up.

Now you need to chop up the fresh broccoli. The smaller the pieces the faster it will cook. Just ensure you have consistently chopped broccoli so you don’t have some pieces that are not done.

Also, dice up your bell pepper. I usually use a red, yellow or orange pepper.

Grab a large bowl. Toss in the diced or shredded chicken, broccoli, belle pepper, garlic, dill and mayo.

Stir well to combine.

On a baking sheet, pizza pan or baking stone, take two cans of crescent roll dough and lay them out so that the pointed ends face outwards from the pan and the straight line of the ends are slightly overlapping each other to form a circle in the center of your pan.

I use two cans of crescent rolls because I want one ring to feed as many people as possible.

Begin to scoop the chicken and broccoli filling on top of the crescent rolls making a circle just as you see in the image. You are placing the filling closer to the flat edge of the dough.

Now, take the pointed end of the crescent rolls and fold it over the top of the filling and tuck it into the inside of the ring.

This is what your ring should look like when it is done.

It does not have to be perfect. This is a super forgiving recipe.

Brush the top with egg white and pop it in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until the dough is a deep golden brown.

When it is done take it out of the oven, slice it up and serve. It is perfect for dinner, lunch or brunch. It is a great party or gathering food too!

Can I Make a Chicken Broccoli Braid Using Crescent Rolls?

Would you rather make a braid instead of a crescent ring? It is super easy to do! It does not require any additional ingredients, your assembly method is just a bit different.

How to Make a Chicken Broccoli Braid Using Crescent Rolls

You will make your filling the same way as you do for the ring, but instead of taking the crescent rolls and laying them on the baking pan in a circular way, you will take the two sheets of crescent rolls straight out of the package and simply unroll them and not unattached each individual triangle.

Lay them both on the pan horizontally slightly overlapping in the center.

How to Cut Crescent Roll Dough to Make a Braid

Once you’ve added the chicken and broccoli filling to the center of the dough, use a knife to cut strips from the edge of the dough right up to the where the filling is.

Do this on both sides of the filling.

Grab the strips of dough from each side and bring them up over the filling and twist them on top on the filling.

Bake the chicken broccoli braid at the same temperature and time as the chicken broccoli ring.

Spread an egg white wash over the top of the raw dough before baking it.

This is what it will look like when it is done cooking.
