COCONUT MERINGUE NESTS
These nests are totally on theme for the holiday — but more impressive than a marshmallow or chocolate bunny (not that we don't love those, too). Blahnik Baker's meringue cookies have a sweet coconut lemon mousse filling, and you can top them with fresh fruit, candy eggs, and toasted coconut flakes.

PEAR FRISÉE SALAD WITH CANDIED WALNUTS AND GOAT CHEESE
If a first course is the first impression of a meal, this salad from What Should I Make For... is the key to ensuring it's a good one. The crunchy and slightly bitter frisée tempers the sweet pears and candied walnuts, which all come together via a sherry vinaigrette dressing.

SIMPLE CARROT SOUP
Maybe you prefer chocolate cake over carrot cake. A soul-warming soup is another avenue to the vegetable of the day—especially when it's boosted by leeks, thyme, and a splash of rich cream.
