Easy Easter Brunch Recipes

Whether you’re hosting the family for brunch, preparing the big Easter ham, or using up holiday leftovers, Jones Dairy Farm is here to help make your holiday celebration extra special with easy brunch recipes for Easter.

How to Create the Perfect Easter Brunch

According to our Chairman and CEO Philip Jones, who is also a professionally trained chef, designing a delicious Easter meal that will appeal to all of your guests can be accomplished easily and with minimal prep time.

“A holiday such as Easter should be a special celebration and include dishes you might not typically serve,” said Philip. He recommends these simple tips to impress your holiday guests or save time in the kitchen:

• Mix in springtime produce like asparagus, snow peas, or new potatoes for ultimate freshness and flavor.
• Incorporate fresh herbs instead of dried ones to elevate your dishes.
• Include ingredients such as sun-dried tomatoes, avocado, or yellow cheeses for a festive and colorful spread.
• Use fully cooked and prepared foods to save time without sacrificing taste. Jones Golden Brown links and patties are fully cooked and can go from package to plate in minutes.
• Substitute items like alternative milks or gluten free flours for family or friends with dietary restrictions.
