Pantry Easter 2007

Last year, I was very excited how inexpensive our Easter was, thanks to the stocked pantry. This year is more of the same. Here is my Easter Dinner shopping list:

  • Ham (the roommate generously donated a grocery store gift card he won at work and told me to buy the fancy ham. Yum!)
  • Strawberries (on sale B1G1 at Dillons this week.)
  • Apples
Gotta love the pantry!

This year will be similar to last year, menu-wise. Every major holiday I decide that I'm going to do a NEW! DIFFERENT! MENU! But I always fall back on the old favorites. Maybe on Thanksgiving? I do tend to do the meats a different way each year, so that's a start.

Easter at Casa La Frugal

Ham

Green Bean Casserole

Fresh Baked Rolls

Roasted Potatoes

Cranberry Sauce (my husband requested it, and I happen to have some in the freezer!)

Strawberry Pie

Apple Pie

Coffee, Tea

Easter really snuck up on me this year. I want to do an Easter basket for my husband too. I don't really know why, but the idea has been planted in my head and it keeps coming up, so I suppose that there is a reason. I will do this as frugally as possible, and try to get candy he likes and I hate so I don't eat the whole thing before I give it to him!

What a nice room mate! Your menu sounds wonderful. Easter snuck up on me, too. For some nutty reason, until last week I thought it was on the 18th--which isn't even a Sunday. Good thing my sil handles Easter dinner every year, LOL!
