Hosting Easter Brunch this year - Need ideas!
I'm clueless, never did a brunch before. What do I put out??
I'm making a french toast casserole, that's all I know right now.
Thanks!

Re: Hosting Easter Brunch this year - Need ideas!
Your welcome! I have some more ideas to add:
-tuna fish salad
-coffee cake
-cinnamon rolls
-biscotti
-fresh fruit or fruit salad
-tea/coffee
I wish I could be hosting Easter brunch!! We eat at the IL's and breakfast is usually just scrambled eggs. they do easter dinner only and it is always ham and I am a vegetarian. LOL.

Coffee cake
hash brown casserole
spiral ham (gives you the smokey flavor of bacon without the work of cooking it!)
If you are truly looking for a lunch/breakfast combo, you could also add pasta salad, fresh mozzarella with basil & balsamic vinegar, proscuitto wrapped melon.
I would stick with anything you can make ahead of time

Do you have a hash brown casserole recipe? Sounds delish!
Proscuitto wrapped melon! Love that!
