This twelvemonth we MIGHT beryllium capable to person a small Easter gathering astatine our location – the sod is going successful arsenic I constitute this and portion the enactment won’t beryllium done (and our driveway is painfully breached up, waiting to beryllium redone) I’m hoping to execute my favourite Easter contented – a ham, mustard, and pickle sandwich bar. I person nary pictures of this contented but volition beryllium definite to document it this year. We started this successful LA years agone and it was SUCH a assemblage pleaser, truthful easy, comparatively affordable, kids loved it, adults loved it, and I don’t deliberation I tin ever look back. Here’s what you’ll need:

The Universal Power of The Humble Hawaiian Rolls

Y’all I didn’t cognize these existed until 9 years agone erstwhile we started doing sliders for kids’ parties, and my goodness the sweetness of these rolls combined with the saltiness of the ham is incredible. Last twelvemonth I got pretzel rolls, too, conscionable to springiness assortment but everyone gobbles up the Hawaiian rolls first. So brushed and saccharine – don’t fuss getting the healthier options. 

Honey Baked Ham

You’ll apt request to bid ahead, but this is the lone clip of twelvemonth that we truly indulge successful ham (and if you are vegetarian this sandwich wholly inactive works with aggregate slices of cheese). They usually pre-score it for you, but if not you chopped astir 1/2 of it for your guests successful sizes that would acceptable the sandwich and laic it retired connected a platter (you’ll person leftovers truthful effort to springiness it distant to guests astatine the extremity due to the fact that you won’t privation to devour ham for 6 months aft this day).

The sharper the amended and of people supporting section farms feels bully if you can:) 

Many The Mustards! 

In bid to afloat indulge successful this sandwich barroom we request galore types of mustard (this is wherever the outgo tin adhd up if you aren’t careful, but we are a mustard household truthful we’ll spell done them). Sure, you mightiness beryllium good with conscionable yellowish – but fto yourself unrecorded retired each your condiment fantasies connected this glorious day. Obviously dijon, spicy dijon, chromatic ground, etc.

Classic + Artisanal Pickles

Whatever you do, bash NOT deliberation you are supra breadstuff and food saccharine pickles. It’s my humble sentiment that these are the best, contempt their basal reputation. However, this is your accidental to indulge successful each your pickle dreams and enactment immoderate section pickle makers and impressment your friends (if they are into pickles – this volition not impressment them if they are not into pickles). Dill, spicy, sweet, relish, etc. My LA squad loves Kaylin + Kaylin pickles (they curse by the chromatic mustard flavor) and I mightiness person them vessel a jar to me. Heck, with capable clip I mightiness adjacent marque my own. Yes, you tin effort relish, but for me, I emotion a saccharine pickle SO MUCH successful this sandwich that I dabble successful dill but lone momentarily earlier I caput backmost to sweet.

Last twelvemonth I got horseradish and fried onions (from a can) which I enjoyed. You could besides spell for capers oregon virtually thing canned from the condiment aisle. You tin adjacent get a assortment of chips and enactment chips successful your sandwich (if you person ne'er done this mightiness I suggest you halt denying yourself the deliciousness of the interior sandwich chip? Salt and vinegar, ruffled Lays, and classical brackish & capsicum are each bully options). Lastly, we emotion mayo a batch but this much fashionable condiment takes a backmost spot connected this day. Feel escaped to spell afloat “Starke” (my maiden name) and indulge successful immoderate Miracle Whip oregon marque your ain aioli (which I conscionable started doing and is delicious) should you privation to connection thing a small little artery-clogging. 🙂 

That’s astir it. We usually bash bunny pancakes successful the greeting and Brian makes deviled eggs portion I marque a immense delicious crockery due to the fact that I emotion combining it with a acold crunch. Then successful the day erstwhile we invitation folks implicit we’ll enactment each the supra ingredients retired connected platters, connected the island, oregon eating table. Please prevention yourself a large headache – don’t decant oregon statement the mustards. Just shove a weapon successful each jar and enactment them up adjacent to each different connected a table. Part of the charm of this grab-and-hang repast is its easiness and casualness. This is evidently not champion for a sit-down meal, it’s much for a enactment atmosphere. Let the kids assistance themselves (what’s the worst that could happen? Yes, they mightiness conscionable devour rotation aft rotation but it’s Easter and they are going to person a sweetener hangover careless :)). So popular immoderate achromatic vino oregon section IPAs and indulge successful what volition beryllium a joyous and gut-busting Easter day. 🙂
