Lamb

Of course, the biggest alternative to ham for Easter is lamb. Lamb is an age-old tradition on Easter because of its symbolic nature to the Sabbath for the Jewish religion and Jesus Christ in Christianity. Lamb is considered more tender than mutton (sheep older than one year), and it is best served grilled or lightly roasted with fresh herbs like rosemary and thyme. Plus, there is a wide range of health benefits in lamb, including a significant source of omega-3 & omega-6 fats and minerals, including Selenium and zinc.

Turkey & Chicken

If you’re not into lamb or ham, turkey and chicken are always great options. Marinated, oven-roasted, grilled–regardless of how you serve turkey and chicken, these two types of meat are always delicious! Complete your Easter entree by cooking with Mediterranean spices and serving with gravy. Plus, these meat types have a wide range of health benefits, including high protein levels, vitamins and minerals like B Vitamins and zinc, and even some anti-cancer properties!

Fish & Vegetarian Options

Fish and Vegetarian options are typically served during Lent for most Christians, but these are also great entrees on Easter Sunday. Many types of fish (and shellfish) can be served, such as Salmon, Trout, and Lobster. Fish is among the healthiest food groups, with a high amount of protein, vitamins and minerals, and omega-3 fatty acids, which help heart health. If you choose to serve a vegetarian Easter entrée, there are plenty of menu options to choose from, with eggplant rollatini and stuffed shells being top on our list! Health benefits of a plant-based meal include a large dose of vitamins and minerals and heart-health benefits!
