What are you having? Are you having to make adjustments due to the lockdown? (We had to have fish fingers yesterday instead of actual fish or chippy).

We couldn't get lamb 😭 so will have roast chicken, roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings, peas and gravy.

Roast chicken for us. I found Yorkshire puddings in the freezer and have a huge bag of potatoes.

FizzyPink · 11/04/2020 13:38

We’re having beef rather than lamb as Sainsbury’s didn’t have any small joints of lamb and it’s only me and DP to feed so seemed wasteful to buy a great big leg

popcorndiva · 11/04/2020 13:38

Ordered two roast turkeys with all the trimmings and mini egg brownies from a local pub that are doing delivery. I am not a fan of lamb too fatty

Megan2018 · 11/04/2020 13:41

We are having roast lamb and chocolate brownies courtesy of the pub takeaway as our food shop comes Monday.

We’ve only got 1 egg each and not much wine but otherwise it’ll be pretty similar. It’s our DD’s first Easter and a box of toys came from MIL before lockdown (she’s overseas).

RoseDog · 11/04/2020 13:42

We are having steak pie, roasties and carrot and turnip mash, I forgot it was Easter Sunday or I would have done roast beef and all the trimmings!

Redcherries · 11/04/2020 13:43

Lamb and all the trimmings 😁

Figgygal · 11/04/2020 13:44

Our village pub is doing delivery on roasts
So we having beef and pork
Home made (in the pub) mini egg cheesecake for dessert

maddiemookins16mum · 11/04/2020 13:47

Roast leg of lamb, roast spuds, carrots, spring greens, cauli cheese and Yorkshires. Sticky toffee pudding and ice-cream for pudding.

Gramgram · 11/04/2020 13:50

We'll be having roast chicken here with new potatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, sweetcorn and peas. Pudding is some individual strawberry cheesecakes which I picked up in Tesco. We do have a leg of lamb in the freezer but we're saving that for a big family meal when lockdown is over.

Happy Easter.

OlaEliza · 11/04/2020 13:55

Steak and onion rings sound 😋

We'll have sponge and custard for dessert.

Roast lamb with roast potatoes, carrots, white cabbage, parsnips, swede, Yorkshire puddings and red wine gravy!

Will have wine too!

ilovecakeandwine · 11/04/2020 13:57

Roast beef , potatoes & veg .
I'm doing a cooked breakfast in the morning so dinner will be about 4pm .
I want to make it a nice treat will watch a couple of films in the afternoon.

dementedma · 11/04/2020 13:58

Usually my favourite family meal of the year but DH is working and we can’t bring mum round, so really not bothered this year.
I have a small joint of beef in the freezer so will do that for me and ds(DD is vegetarian), and will do potatoes dauphinoises as they are minimum effort. Rhubarb and ginger cheesecake for pudding.

clary · 11/04/2020 14:01

We used to have roast lamb but the kids have gone veggie so I wasn't sure...

I asked what people fancied and they said could they have roast dinner, just without the meat! So I've got a veggie nut roast, and we're having roasties, yorkshires and all the veg I can muster, followed by Nigella's Easter cake 😀😀

mindutopia · 11/04/2020 14:01

We’re having a pork roast instead of lamb. I did order a lamb, but what arrived with my online shop was about big enough to feed one of us. I didn’t even know a lamb leg came that small!

With roast potatoes, leek cheese and cabbage with apple sauce. Sponge pudding and custard for dessert.

clary · 11/04/2020 14:03

@dementedma rhubarb and ginger cheesecake sounds ace!

AvoidingRealHumans · 11/04/2020 14:03

Roast lamb and all the trimmings, I didn't think to get a dessert so afters will be Easter eggs I think..

AnnaNimmity · 11/04/2020 14:04

We've got some lamb from the local butcher. Will do a Nigella recipe I think,. Her easter lunch calls for lemon meringue pie too which I'm not hugely in favour of.

CremeEggThief · 11/04/2020 14:06

I got a frozen nut roast and frozen veggie Wellington from Lidl on Thursday, so will decide which to have tomorrow. Accompanied by mini roast potatoes, carrots, parsnips, cavolo nero, frozen Yorkshires and good old Bisto. Yum!

Mummiepig · 11/04/2020 14:07

I think we’re having pizza

APurpleSquirrel · 11/04/2020 14:08

We're having Roast Turkey - got a lovely breast joint from the butchers this morning.

Pomegranatemolasses · 11/04/2020 14:09

Ottolenghi's lamb shawarma - it's currently marinating in the fridge. Absolutely yum. Will also do his roast butternut squash with tahini and zaatar, flat breads brushed with harissa, and tomato and cucumber salad.
