MY WORLD OF TRUTH

Sometimes it's hard to cater for everyone at a big family gathering. That's why BBC Good Food has planned your perfect Easter menu for veggies, bursting with seasonal treats and hearty mains that won't leave you going hungry. 

Make veg the star of your seasonal starters. If you want a platter of nibbles people can dip into at leisure, these crunchy radishes dipped in brown butter with sea salt flakes are ideal. Keep the natural flavours coming with our roasted purple sprouting broccoli with punchy feta and preserved lemon. Roasting brings out the earthy flavours and with a pinch of chilli for heat and a zesty slice of lemon, this makes an addictive spring starter.

Hearty veggie pies can make really impressive Easter centrepieces. Even devoted carnivores will want a slice of this veggie spiral pie – a light, crisp pastry stuffed with rice, feta and spinach. Our crispy Greek style pie keeps it equally light and golden brown with sundried tomatoes and ready-made filo pastry for a no-stress main course.

The veg patch is starting to come into its own in spring, so make the most of Jersey Royals in our crispy new potato tray bake. A little white wine vinegar and a sprig of thyme goes a long way. For a sweet and tangy finish, try these balsamic shallots & carrots, plus pack in the greens in with our pods and sods with watercress.

Whether you want to indulge in Easter chocolate or something light and fresh to finish off your feast, spring is a great season for both. A warm slice of rhubarb, marzipan and citrus sponge served with a scoop of crème fraîche is the perfect end to a filling meal. For a truly showstopping Easter themed dessert, this chocolate tart complete with golden Galaxy eggs is sure to impress.
