Easter Entertaining

PEONIES

Easter is one of my favorite days of the year! Here’s a roundup of some of my favorite entertaining tips to make the day extra colorful:

Sweet: I love the idea of using this recipe from Barefoot Contessa–the most heavenly coconut cupcakes with cream cheese frosting–and topping them with little candy eggs.

Savory: I’m also loving this feature from The Everygirl on building the perfect cheese board, including everything you need to know about cheese types, presentation, and pairings.

Eat: Since I’m half Greek, I grew up trying a lot of different recipes for Greek Easter. My absolute favorites are this recipe for traditional Greek bread and this recipe for rack of lamb lamb and slow-roasted potatoes. We let it cook all afternoon with some oregano, olive oil, and lemon and it’s one of my favorite meals all year long.

Decorate: The simplest (and most budget friendly) centerpiece:

P.S. Have extra peeps left over and don’t know what to do with them?  I’m not a big fan of them, but these peeps s’mores are pretty adorable.
