Easter recipes

I grew up cooking with my Mom, and even though food really has nothing to do with the reasons behind most holidays, I tend to associate holidays with cooking traditions! Here are a few Easter recipes that can help reiterate the true meaning behind the holiday with your kids:

Resurrection Cookies -- each ingredient corresponds to a scripture that tells the Easter Story.

Resurrection Rolls -- These rolls turn out hollow just as the grave was on Easter when Jesus arose.

Hot Cross Buns -- traditional Good Friday roll with a cross on top as a reminder of the price Jesus paid for our sins
