Easter is a holiday that is full of planning. Decorations, dinners, and even desserts are often all planned ahead of time. While all these things are important to think about when planning any get-togethers, side dishes are often overlooked until last minute. With Easter being as busy of a holiday as it is, no one wants to have to go on an emergency trip to the grocery store to grab the very last veggie plate in the refrigerated section. Make sure your Easter gathering goes off without a hitch this year by planning your side dishes ahead of time. Whether you're serving a hearty or healthy Easter dinner, here are five side dishes that will go great with any meal!

I have been doing Dr ornish program and I tried making banana bread with Bobs whole wheat flour and flax meal. No oil or eggs. The banana bread came out gummy and it sunk after removing it from oven. I have never cooked with flax meal before. Do you have an oil free recipe or any suggestions on what happened?
Also do you carry dehydrated soy granules?
Thanks so much.
