This spring, try these Easter recipes for brunch, dinner and desserts, to satisfy the whole family, from kids to grandparents, after a long egg hunt. 

Easter is always an exciting time of year. The warming weather means we can spend more time outside without layering up in our winter gear. And the changing season means it’s time to start cooking lighter, sunnier foods with spring produce. 

My family loves to enjoy Easter with a celebratory brunch and dinner filled with traditional and unique dishes. Of course we never forget dessert! Read on for the best Easter recipes to enjoy from morning to night this spring.

We hope you and your family have a wonderful Easter celebration!
