I need to bring a dish to my boyfriend's grandparent's house for Easter. So I want it to be perfect! I'm having trouble finding the right one, so please I need suggestions. Thanks!Does anyone have a vegetarian side dish recipe for easter?
Here are a couple --
Baked Corn Pudding
Pudding:
1 8-3/4 ounce can cream-style corn
1 7 ounce can corn niblets, drained
3 eggs
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup cold milk
1 teaspoon baking powder
Topping:
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine
1/2 cup brown sugar
For corn pudding:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Combine all ingredients and beat together with a wire whisk until mixture is completely blended. Pour into a 9 x 12-inch baking dish. Bake 45 minutes, or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
For topping:
Mix all ingredients together and place in saucepan. Boil on high heat for 1 minute (do not allow to burn). Pour over corn bread and serve.
Butternut Squash with Stuffing
4 medium-small butternut squashes (about 1 pound each)
3/4 cup raw wild rice, rinsed
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 cup chopped red onion
1 clove garlic, minced
2 1/2 cups firmly packed torn whole wheat bread
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1/2 teaspoon dried sage
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon seasoned salt, or to taste
1 cup fresh orange juice
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Halve the squashes and scoop out seeds and fibers. Place them cut side up in shallow baking dishes and cover tightly with covers or more foil. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until easily pierced with a knife but still firm.
In the meantime, bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan. Stir in the wild rice; reduce to a simmer, then cover and cook until the water is absorbed, about 40 minutes.
Heat the oil in a skillet. Add the onion and garlic and saut茅 until golden.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked wild rice with the saut茅ed onion and the remaining ingredients. When the squashes are cool enough to handle, scoop out the pulp, leaving firm shells about 1/2 inch thick. Chop the pulp and stir it into the rice mixture. Stuff the squashes, place in foil-lined baking dishes, and cover.
Before serving, place the squashes in a preheated 350 degree oven. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or just until well heated through.
Variation: To add drama to this presentation, try this recipe with other squash varieties. Hubbard squash, delicata, sweet dumpling and golden nugget are just a few of the stuffable edible squashes available.
Hope these help. ~-~Does anyone have a vegetarian side dish recipe for easter?
