Easter brunch options include the classic muffin platter that serves 8-10 people and comes with an assortment of freshly baked muffins or three varieties of 9-inch whole quiches -- ham, bacon or vegetable. The quiches are available warm and ready to eat or for reheat at home. Those looking for more traditional Easter spreads can order the Ham Dinner Family Meal for 4 which includes sliced ham served with chipotle glaze, mashed potatoes, gravy, mixed vegetables and cornbread.

For poultry lovers, the Roasted Turkey Family Meal for 4 will deliver Thanksgiving nostalgia and includes a hand-carved roasted turkey with apple-sage stuffing, turkey gravy, mashed potatoes and tangy cranberry sauce.

Marie Callender’s Pot Pie Meal for 4 is legendary for a reason and includes 4 mini pot pies, shepherd's pie or two of each, and is served with fresh salad and cornbread. Now available for a limited time is the seasonal Fresh Strawberry Pie that’s made with a mountain of fresh strawberries, piled in the house-made crust, with a simple strawberry glaze and whipped cream.
