Maple Syrup Ham and Sweet Potatoes with Marshmallows
One of the most enjoyed types of food to eat at Easter is ham and you can sweeten up the taste of ham by adding some delicious maple syrup.  While your store bought maple syrup should do the trick, try to purchase maple syrup that is 100% pure and not made from corn syrup.  Adding pure maple syrup will add a sweet, delicious taste that your friends and family will enjoy.

You can quickly accompany your maple syrup ham with some tasty sweet potatoes smothered in minature marshmallows.  Sweet potatoes should be your maple syrup ham’s best friend.  For an extra treat, add minature marshmallows and you will definetly get some smiles from children and adults alike.

Easter Bunny Cookies
Even though chocolate bunnies are essential to Easter, cookies can also be a great treat.  Just like Christmas cookies are fun to bake and tasty to eat, so can Easter bunny cookies.  Most grocery stores, discount stores, and craft shops sell Easter Bunny cookie cutters to design your favorite chocolate chip or sugar cookie into some creative Easter bunny shapes.

Easter Egg Cup Cakes
Easter Egg Cup Cakes are a wonderful way to add enthusiasm to the holidays for your little ones.  Easter Egg Cupcakes are a simple and fun way to add color to any Easter dinner dessert.  Instead of using cup cake holders, try to use small waffle cones instead to hold your cup cake mixture.  Once baked, add coloring, sprinkles, candy, etc. to your creation.

Easter Bunny Carrot Cake
Easter bunny carrot cake is a great way to add color and fun for the whole family.  What goes better with bunny rabbits than carrots and a yummy carrot cake goes with an Easter dinner.  You can simply buy a carrot cake and decorate the top by hand.  Many people create their own icing adding food coloring to color the carrot cake to look like an Easter egg.

Easter Cocktails
For those adults that like to top off their dinner with a delicious alcoholic drink, there are many tasty cocktails that compliment the mood of an Easter dinner.  For example, certain liquors come in many different colors such as grenadine for red, blue Curacao for aqua and mixing clear liquor with assorted fruit juices for multi colored Easter drinks. For those that crave a cocktail sans the alcohol, it’s easy to add color to your meal with a host of fresh fruit smoothies, just by adding fresh fruit with cream or milk.  Some people even add a little yogurt to the mix.
