    My traditional Easter dinner menu

    These traditional Easter dishes are my family’s favorites, and they grace our dinner table every year with very little change. All of them can be made ahead and scaled up or down depending on how many folks are joining us. What are your favorites?

    A menu of Easter dishes including appetizer, main dishes and dessert.

    Best dish to take to an Easter potluck

    For a potluck, you want a sturdy make-ahead dish that travels well and can be served warm or at room temperature. Some ideal dishes include ham, potato salad, sweet and sour green beans, a bundt cake, broccoli salad, mac and cheese, and broccoli cheddar cheese cornbread muffins.

    Uses for leftover ham

    Every year I get this question, and it’s one of my favorites. Leftover ham can be utilized in so many ways.

    Ham sandwiches or sliders immediately come to mind. But my favorite is Easy Au Gratin Potatoes and Ham or Ham and Scalloped Potatoes in the Crock Pot. These popular recipes are hearty, stick-to-your-ribs main dishes, and make terrific leftovers.

    And, of course, there is also my Devilishly Delicious Deviled Ham which is also a family favorite. Don’t forget to save your ham bone for soup and ham scraps for seasoning Southern peas and greens.

    Frequently Asked Questions:

    What foods are traditionally served on Easter?

    This varies and depends on what part of the country you live in and where you grew up. At our house, our traditional Easter meal is pretty casual. Usually, it includes Baked Ham with Pineapple and Cherries, Southern Potato Salad or Southern Scalloped Potatoes, Sweet and Sour Green Beans or Broccoli Cheese, Casserole, and Deviled Eggs.

    For dessert, it’s either Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Icing, Strawberry Pie, or Pineapple Upside Down Cake.

    What’s a good main dish to serve on Easter instead of ham?

    A Rack of Lamb is a trendy traditional main dish. Other excellent options include Beef Tenderloin, Smoked Turkey, Crown Roast of Pork, or Prime Rib.

    What are the best dishes to serve at Easter for a crowd?


    Baked Ham with Pineapple and Cherries is always a popular choice, as is Southern Potato Salad or Southern Scalloped Potatoes, Sweet and Sour Green Beans or Broccoli Cheese Casserole, and Deviled Eggs. These dishes can be scaled up or down, and most can be made ahead.

    What’s a good Easter menu for two?

    Grilled Ham Steak, Rustic Mashed Potatoes for Two, and Brussels Sprout Salad with Citrus Vinaigrette would make a lovely Easter meal for two.
