Monday Meals: Easter Lunch



Instead of a normal recipe for this week’s Monday Meals, I opted to share our Easter lunch menu with you. We came up with Bible verses to go along with all the dishes.




Slow-Cooker Turkey

“Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I have longed to gather your children together, the way a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were unwilling.” – Matthew 23:37





Christian (not Jewish) Ham

“I am the Good Shepherd; the Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep. – John 10:11





“Then a shoot will spring from the stem of Jesse, and a branch from His roots will bear fruit.” – Isaiah 11:11




Green Bean Casserole

“And after twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on His head, and a reed in His right hand; and they knelt down and mocked Him, saying, ‘Hail, King of the Jews!’” – Matthew 27:29




Asparagus

“But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.” – John 19:34




Mashed Sweet Potatoes

“We esteemed Him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. He was pierced through for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the chastening of our well-being fell upon Him, and by His scourging, we are healed.” – Isaiah 53:4-5





“You have grief now, but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.” – John 16:22




Jello Jigglers

“The thief comes to kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.” – John 10:10





“He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said.” – Matthew 28:6





“Though your sins are as scarlet, they will be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they will be like wool.” – Isaiah 1:18




Happy Easter! He is risen!
