Easter means spring has arrived. There are so many fresh vegetables in season and many of the traditional foods, like eggs, are paleo-friendly. Of course, on Easter, everyone thinks of main dishes like a delicious ham, roast turkey, or savory rack of lamb but don’t forget about the important extras—appetizers, sides, and desserts that help your holiday meal feel so special.
Spring brings delicious fresh greens, tender baby carrots, little radishes and of course artichokes and asparagus. Mushrooms are also a seasonal favorite during this time of year. Deviled eggs, smoked fish, and shrimp are beautiful options for company-worthy starters or brunch treats.
Speaking of treats, what’s an Easter meal without hot cross buns, carrot cake, and biscuits? Well, here are gluten-free and paleo Easter recipes for these delights and more! Whether you're planning a paleo Easter brunch or ham dinner, your holiday table will be complete with these delicious paleo dishes.
