Easter Dinner
My mom has hosted all major holiday's since, well, forever. Until last year when my sister had Thanksgiving at her house and yesterday, when I had the entire extended family here for Easter at mine. The menu was simple yet delicious, with everyone bringing something to the table. From Prime Rib (mom), to a Spring Salad made with ingredients picked up at the Farmer's Market that morning (my sister-in-law), to the Coconut Cake (sister) and Sweet Bunny Bread from Freeport Bakery (another sister in-law). My contributions included a fruit salad of Pineapple, Kiwi and Oranges in a Mint Syrup (all but the pineapple from the same market trip); Grilled Salmon with Meyer lemon oil, fresh thyme, sweet lemons and garlic; and Stuffed Baked Sweet Potatoes - a big hit! The potatoes were from Farmer Beatrice Jimenez, picked up at the Thursday market. They were a new twist on our family favorite of Baked Stuffed Potatoes, known also as twice-baked potatoes. Shoot me an e-mail if you'd like the recipe - it's a keeper!
