Easter Egg Rolls
These Easter egg rolls are not made from Easter eggs, but I cannot think of a better use for leftover Easter ham. Filled with tender veggies and rice vermicelli, with the sweet-savory flavor of ham, and a perfectly-textured thin, crisp exterior, these egg rolls are absolutely delicious. I've included a recipe for a non-traditional mustard sauce, but you can also use any more traditional sauces like hoisin or sweet and sour sauce.
Campfire Curried Vegetable Packs
A curried vegetable and chickpea dish made in an aluminum foil wrap over a campfire. This is an easy vegetarian meal while camping with almost no cleanup! (I hate doing dishes while tent camping.)
Salmon Burgers with Lemon Basil Mayo
A lemony mayo sauce for salmon burgers takes these to the next level. I am not a big fish eater, but my family is, so I had to find a way to serve fish we all liked. These salmon burgers were the perfect solution for us! Serve on hamburger buns with your preferred garnish (lettuce, tomato, onion, etc.).
