An exceptional Easter feast calls for flavorful sides that pair well with any entrée. From ready-to-heat and ready-to-eat dishes, to fresh produce that’s already cleaned and prepped, we offer all the premium ingredients you need to assemble a holiday meal with minimal stress.
Short on time? Our ready-made sides are crafted with premium, fresh ingredients for convincingly homemade flavor. (We won’t tell if you don’t.) Choose from comfort food classics like Macaroni and Cheese to some of our more unique options, like Lemon Orzo Salad with Pine Nuts and Pear Broccoli Salad with Walnuts.
Crunchy pine nuts, juicy tomatoes and fresh spinach beautifully complement buttery orzo pasta and light lemon vinaigrette.
Add some color and crunch to your menu with fresh pears, broccoli, red onion, savory Parmesan and walnuts tossed in a light, creamy dressing.
It’s everything you love about a loaded baked potato, mixed up in a ready-to-eat potato salad. Savor tender chunks of potato, savory cheese, sour cream and, of course, bacon in every bite. Try it cold or hot—both options are equally delicious.
This savory side is always a crowd-pleaser! We’ve tossed perfectly cooked penne pasta, roasted red peppers, fresh mozzarella, spinach and Parmesan in a light, creamy dressing.
Spend less time standing over the cutting board and take advantage of our prepared produce instead! The experienced staff in our Produce Department have cleaned, sliced, peeled, cubed, cored and seasoned your favorite fruits and vegetables, so you don’t have to.
Prepped Produce
If you’re cooking Brussels sprouts, we offer some that are conveniently halved—ready to boil, roast or sauté. We also have asparagus tips with the woody stems removed, and recipe-ready cubed sweet potatoes. Fresh broccoli and cauliflower florets are a versatile favorite. Try them steamed, roasted, sautéed, mixed into a casserole or raw on a crudité platter.
If you’re all about presentation, try our baby peeled carrots with tops. They’re fully prepped and ready to roast whole. We also have cored pineapple and pineapple rings, perfect for garnishing our honey ham.
Ready-to-Cook Vegetables
Save even more time with our freshly-prepared vegetables. We slice and season these sides in-store and mix them with the perfect blend of ingredients for maximum flavor.
Try our seasoned one-bite potatoes, made with a flavorful and fragrant blend of herbs and extra virgin olive oil. We also have seasoned asparagus and Brussels sprouts mixed with crisp red bell peppers, peeled garlic, extra virgin olive oil, sea salt and pepper. Love Green Beans Amandine? We make ours with fresh green beans, red bell peppers, slivered almonds, extra virgin olive oil, salt and pepper.
If seasonal decorating has you thinking about more flavorful uses for hard-boiled eggs, then this classic party food makes a perfect seasonal appetizer or savory side. The term “deviled” traditionally refers to foods with abundant seasoning, and our recipes don’t disappoint!
We recommend using The Fresh Market Cage Free Eggs to make deviled eggs for Easter. Ours come from cage-free hens raised on family farms, with plenty of room to roam. These hens enjoy an all-vegetarian diet rich in nutrients, so they can produce the best-tasting eggs for you to enjoy.
See below for some of our go-to tips and recipe ideas.
Egg Prep Tips
If you prefer to cook from scratch, we can help with that, too. Here are some of our favorite recipes for Easter, each one featuring a delicious item from our Produce Department.
Love asparagus? You’re in luck. With our asparagus tips, we’ve already removed the woody part of the stem, so they’re ready to cook. We also have Brussels sprouts that are pre-halved, saving you slicing time in the kitchen. Here are some of our favorite recipes for both.
If you’re cooking with root vegetables, try our fresh beets and radishes. Not only are these tasty veggies rich in vitamins in nutrients, they’re also delicious roasted and added to a variety of salads. Add some color and unique flavor to your spread with these easy recipes.
