    1. BBQ pulled chicken in instant pot with buns 
    2. Quiche Lorraine with bacon
    3. Frozen dino nuggets for the kids and DH while I go out with friends
    4. Burgers
    5. Pesto pasta and chicken
    6. Tomato basil soup and grilled cheese
    7. Leftovers/wing it

    (I also have sweet potatoes and various veggies to throw together for sides.)

    I'm hosting Easter dinner and have no menu yet, lol. Probably a Costco ham, green beans, rolls, deviled eggs... help me out with the rest!

    @llamamama14 make some sweet potatoes to go along with your Easter spread and have your guests bring a dish. Don't make it hard on yourself!

    @twelvetwosomeonenew Don't worry I'm not stressing. I'm only hosting my folks and 2 siblings and my mom will probably bring half the food. Plus ham and rolls are just heat and serve. :)

    @llamamama14 good deal! Sometimes I forgot that not everyone has half a million people at their holiday dinners.  :D

    I also don't have specific days but we're doing:
    - Chicken Caesar Salads
    - Beef Tacos & Rice
    - Hamburgers & Roasted Veggies
    - Baked Chicken & Tortellini

    We have one "eat out" night planned on Wednesday because DD has her sibling class through the hospital which has been rescheduled over and over due to the influenza outbreak and kids under 12 not being allowed into the hospital!

    We've fallen off the meal planning lately.  And we aren't home much this week.  Here's what we do have on the menu:

    Sunday: Lentil Soup and Corn Bread
    Monday: Babysitter to give kids dinner and DH and I are eating out as we have errands to run after work
    Tuesday: Brats, baked beans, salad
    Wednesday: Pizza night 
    Thursday: Brother and SIL in town, so we'll eat in a restaurant with them
    Friday: Something with Chicken - Pot Pie maybe.
    Saturday: Something with beef - Stroganoff maybe.
    Sunday: Easter at my parent's house.

    I ate out way too much while I was out of town last week...so I'm feeling motivated to cook at home every night this week. I meal planned last night and did a huge grocery haul this morning. Up on the menu this week:

    Mon: Garlic roast chicken breast with rosemary and lemon, twice baked red potatoes, side salads

    Tues: Beef stroganoff

    Wed: zucchini boats (stuffed with potatoes, chicken, corn, cheese)

    Thurs: Tacos

    Fri: leftovers

    Sat: Pasta with chicken sausage and broccoli 

    And I bought a ham for Easter but nothing for sides...lol. Luckily its just H and I (plus a toddler who is only eating grapes, peas and cheerios this week...) so we'll just improvise :)

    We always had ham for Easter, and I don’t like ham. What else can I make? DD is getting old enough that I’m trying to start traditions.

    @pupsicle23 - Turkey? Some people do turkey for Easter. I think ham, chicken, and lamb are the three "traditional" foods that people make (in terms of meats) for Easter, though.

    @pupsicle23 We often do salmon. That was our tradition growing up because my mom didn't cook chicken or red meat.
