Easter Brunch

Easter is just a couple of days away now, and a wonderful chance to reconnect with friends and family. While we love an elaborate traditional dinner, a brunch is a great more casual no-fuss approach. Here are some unique recipes we found that are sure to make your spread a hit. Many of them include make ahead or store bought options which make creating a feast even easier. All of the recipes are courtesy of Better Homes & Gardens and Martha Stewart. (click on the description under the photo for the link).

Peeps!


Easter is right around the corner, so that means all the stores are packed full of fun and colorful  Easter candy like one of our favorites, marshmallow Peeps! These cute little confections are simply a tradition and a holiday must have. Get your yearly Peeps fix with these cool ideas that make them more than just for eating


Try incorporating Peeps into a flower arrangement for a cute festive touch.



Get creative and combine them with other candies to make sushi! Get the recipe from the Peeps website. We also spotted some other fun ideas there like Peeps smores and chocolate Peep fondue.




How cute are these festive little cocktails. Garnish drinks and mock-tails for kids with Peeps like they did here at Autocrat.



For a more modern look try nestling them into some fake grass like they did here from Holiday Helpings for a cool centerpiece or table decoration.



Lastly send guests from an Easter brunch on their way with little Peep favors made with free printables like these spotted at How Sweet Treats.
