This is 100% an Easter staple for us. While my wife sets an amazing table with multiple dishes, this is my single paltry contribution, but it is fairly popular. I've gotten a few requests for the recipe, so here it is.

Note: this was largely driven by the allrecipes recipe, although I've done this one enough that I was able to type this one out from memory with my own tweaks.
