Easter Egg Salad With Beets
For a fun lunch, serve a pink egg salad made with beets. Little girls are sure to love it (or even grown-up ones), especially if you love BEETS!
Sausage Pinwheels
My Mom discovered this sausage roll recipe years ago and it has been passed around many, many times. A sausage mixture is baked into a puff pastry roll and served as little appetizer bites.
German Hamburgers (Frikadellen)
Frikadellen, the original hamburger, are served like a flattened meatball with string beans and salad. I also like to use this recipe to make Swedish meatballs (but omit the paprika). My aunt in Hamburg, Germany, taught me this recipe, and I've been making it ever since. Serve with steamed string beans and tossed salad. Or serve on a kaiser roll with lettuce, tomato, pickled cucumbers, finely sliced deep-fried onions, and curry ketchup.
