If your family doesn’t love baked ham or you just can’t get your hands on one, these 23 recipes would make a fantastic Easter meal.
Apple Pork Loin
"I don't really eat pork a lot... usually. But apples can make anything amazing! So juicy and flavorful, not to mention easy - I just love it!" - Kimberly
Maple-Butter Roasted Chicken
"The maple-butter rub on this chicken imparts a delicious flavor to the chicken. Try placing the chicken on top of veggies and allow them to roast together." - Daily Inspiration
Salmon With Lemon Dill Sauce
"This simple salmon recipe is easy to prepare yet it's bursting with so much flavor. Fresh and tangy, the lemon dill sauce adds so much zing to the dish. Once cooked, the salmon is warm and flaky. After trying, you'll find yourself making this salmon again and again." - The Kitchen Crew
Grilled Sesame Flank Steak
"Flank steak is a delicious cut of beef and is often stuffed or rolled, yet I’m here to tell you that it’s an often-misused piece of beef. It cooks quickly over high heat on the grill but is equally delicious smoked low and slow." - Scott
Mamma Maria's Baked Ziti (Pasta al Forno)
"This recipe comes from my mom, she was the best cook. She thought me how to cook and she thought me well. She used to make this dish for Sunday dinner a lot. Although she is no longer with us I still make it. My kids love it when I make the ziti and so does my husband and he's Irish." - Lin
Stuffed Pork Loin Roast
"I have served this at informal dinner parties and everyone loved it!" - Irana
Shrimp Scampi
"An all-time family favorite that is so quick and easy. I always serve it over white rice with hot apple muffins." - Oneita
Salisbury Steak Meatballs
"Thanks to onion soup mix and Italian bread crumbs, the meatballs have a nice savory flavor. After simmering in the Crock Pot, the gravy becomes nice and thick. It is great over egg noodles. The flavor combinations are perfect in this recipe with minimal ingredients." - The Kitchen Crew
Roast Chicken With Lemon
"This is a juicy, delicious, no fuss roasted chicken recipe your family will love. The chicken itself is moist and has terrific flavor from lemon, basil, and garlic. The skin crips wonderfully. With simple ingredients and easy steps, just pop the chicken in the oven and forget about it until the timer dings." - The Kitchen Crew
Shrimp Au Gratin
"This is quite rich, but oh so good. It can be made in individual gratin dishes also." - Mikekey
My Lasagna Recipe
"This is far from being a secret recipe or original. It's just quick and delicious." - Lea Ann
Cheesy Garlic Stuffed Chicken
"Even picky eaters are going to love this stuffed chicken recipe. The combination of cheese is very savory and flavorful. There's just enough fresh garlic to add a pop of flavor but not be overpowering. Rolling the chicken in melted butter, then coating with bread crumbs, crisps up when baked and helps to keep the chicken breasts juicy." - The Kitchen Crew
Easy Baked Salmon in Foil
"My husband loved it when I made this no-fail version of baked salmon. We have a Meyer lemon tree but you can use regular lemons. I am not a lover of salmon but I did love this." - Marlene
Cherry Pecan Stuffed Chicken Breasts
"My inspiration for this was a recipe for chicken breasts stuffed with sliced almonds and dried apricots. I made it my own way using the ingredients I already had - pecans and dried cherries." - Gretchen
Creamy Cheesy Gooey Enchilada Casserole
"This gets made weekly at our house! My hubs should probably join an enchiladas support group he asks for it so often! One night I was feeling lazy so instead of taking the time to roll every enchilada, I decided to just layer it all in a casserole dish. BIG hit." - Michelle
Baked Sea Scallops
"This recipe is surprisingly easy to put together!" - Andy
Roast Sticky Chicken Rotisserie Style Like the Deli
"I make up this seasoning mix in bulk and store it in a mason jar. It is also good on oven-baked potatoes wedges and seasoning pork roast or chops. I use a rotisserie for this chicken but it bakes in the oven just as well." - Belle
Beer Onion Gravy Pork Roast
"I found a recipe with the bare bones of something that would taste good and I reworked it for flavor - and so I could use my new immersion blender. This is a keeper! The flavor of the onion gravy is delicious with the roast & mashed potatoes." - Diana
Shepherdess' Pie
"Patti's take on a shepherd's pie recipe is delish. This easy recipe has simple ingredients, yet packs a big punch of flavor. Pepper adds a kick of spice so adjust that to your liking. If you don't have chicken leftovers, pick up a rotisserie chicken at the market." - The Kitchen Crew
Rib Eye Steak With Sauteed Mushrooms
"For this steak recipe I decided to switch it up a bit and add some sauteed mushrooms. The mushrooms are cooked in a white wine butter sauce. I like to add the mushrooms right after the steak comes out of the oven, and then let it sit for 5 min to let the flavors mingle." - Ashley
Cedar Plank Salmon
"The product of some lake house weekend cooking creativity. This recipe has evolved to become a family favorite - and don't underestimate the salmon salad you could make from leftovers." - Brad
Crock Pot Ranch Pork Chops
"This is a favorite at my house. The pork chops come out very tender and the flavor is amazing! You also get a good gravy for mashed potatoes." - Tim
