If you have leftovers from Easter and don’t know what to do, then you’ve come to the right place! Midweek Menu has all the recipes you need to use all those eggs, ham, and veggies from the holiday weekend, and we’re turning them into something delicious!

Enjoying family and friends over a big holiday meal, like Easter, has so many rewards. One of the most delicious benefits is all the yummy leftovers. But to be honest, one can only eat so many ham sandwiches and deviled eggs, right?

I’ve put together a special Midweek Menu that is full of creative recipes to help you repurpose Easter leftovers. Not only is using leftovers a way to save time and money, but it also cuts down on food waste. And, after a busy weekend, I get a break from not cooking from scratch, which is always a welcome treat.
