Coming Soon! What did we have for our Easter meal

Since this is our first year in a new home and near family our Easter meal will be a bit different.

We are keeping our traditional leg of lamb and ham but there are a few changes since it's the potluck (bring a dish) meal this year.

We are having 8 adults and 2 children for early dinner and 10 adults and 4 children for leftovers/sandwiches in the evening when we have the Easter egg hunt, etc. with the kids.

Asparagus

I made some asparagus for the first time this season, yummy!

Snap off the ends where they break naturally.

Spray a piece of foil with non-stick cooking spray
Lay the asparagus on the foil.
Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste.

Close up the foil pouch and put on the grill on the top rack for about 20-30 minutes about as long as it takes to cook fish...

It was delicious and tender and yummy!
