Easter is coming! And while this year is different than any year before, we will definitely be celebrating with a special meal. These spring recipes are perfect for a simple Easter at home. We've included a great puff pastry tart for brunch, some delicious and easy spring sides, and a few desserts that are simple but holiday-worthy. We hope you have a special day celebrating Easter!

This Easy Savory Puff Pastry Tart utilizes purchased puff pastry dough for easy prep. The simple Greek yogurt filling is light, lean and delicious!

Fresh, healthy and delicious this make-ahead Strawberry Kale Salad is perfect for spring and summer. The honey lemon dressing and candied pepitas take it over the top!

These Honey Glazed Carrots with fresh rosemary don't take long to make and they're so delicious, they disappear like candy! That's a warning to make plenty!

Easy, make-ahead and super delicious, this Asparagus with Lemon Parsley Panko is the healthy side that everyone will love!

These Ridiculously Easy Brioche Dinner Rolls almost make themselves! There's 15-minutes light labor on your part (no-mixer, no-kneading!) then the yeast and oven work the crazy delicious magic!

These Easy Artisan Rolls truly are unbelievably easy. Stir up the dough then go to bed. In the morning, shape and bake. Unbelievably delicious too!

These delicious Spring Shortbread Cookies are crisp, sweet and buttery. And there's a simple decorating technique that's fun to do with kids!

This moist, delicious, super easy carrot cake is made in the food processor. The best part? It takes 5 minutes, from start to the oven!

A modern update to the old-fashioned icebox torte, this Limoncello Lemon Tart is melt-in-your-mouth delicious - with a few fabulous gourmet touches!

This delicious Lemon Curd Mousse is so elegant, yet easy enough to make an ordinary day special. It tastes like a creamy, fluffy lemon cloud with a layer of graham cracker-coconut-pecan crunch on the bottom.
Thought for the day:
"Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you.
 My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart
    and my portion forever." Psalm 73:25-26

Thanks so much, Janie. That's really all that matters in the big scheme.
Thank you, Chris, for giving the world the only perfect recipe for life, Christ our Lord. You have the perfect forum for speaking hope into the world and you use it wisely. May God continue to bless you as you bless others.
Thanks so much, Lora. He is the perfect recipe for life, indeed; the Bread of Life and our Spring of Living Water.
These are such beautifully artistic photos. Reminds me of the beautiful and intricate entries on tv’s British Baking Show. If we were still in the era of using hardcover cookbooks, these photos would sell them on the pictures alone. You are both so talented and complement each other’s creations. Be well.
Thank you, Susan, for this kind and thoughtful comment. You're a great encourager!
Thank you Chris for sharing God's word. Our anchor in life's storms.
Amen! đź’•
So true, Marlena. These would be dark times without Him.
