When it comes to an Easter spread, there are two main food groups: lamb and chocolate (though not necessarily together!)
The extended weekend is the perfect opportunity to cook and bake up a storm, whether you're making the most of the seasonal produce like Spring lamb and fresh vegetables, or getting a head start on using up your Easter chocolate by baking sweet treats.
Here, we've rounded up some of our favourite sweet and savoury recipes for the holiday.
