April Fool's Day Dinner

On April Fool’s Day, it was our turn to host Life Group at our house (instead of adult Sunday Schools, our church does adult Bible Study groups during the week.) Being a holiday, we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to be festive. J So we decided to have a mixed-up dinner!



For dinner, we had cake! This bundt cake happened to be made out of biscuit mix, sausage, pepperoni, and pizza sauce, with mozzarella cheese for frosting.

These beautiful layer cakes were actually meatloaf with mashed potato frosting, decorated with ketchup and mustard “icing”.

For the kids, Roma made some delicious PB&J “sushi” rolls.

For dessert, she made “bacon and eggs” from white chocolate, yellow M&M’s, and pretzels.

I think these were my personal favorite: dessert “taco salad” cups! Roma made these with ice cream cones, chocolate ice cream (refried beans), colored coconut (green for lettuce, yellow for cheese), maraschino cherries (tomatoes), chocolate licorice (black olives), and whipped cream (sour cream.)

We also had “mockamole” with chips. It looked just like guacamole and tasted very similar, but it was made with sweet green peas instead of avocado. It had a delicious sweet and spicy taste. We also had fruit and drinks.



The weather that day was beautiful with temperatures going into the upper 70’s. It was a perfect evening to be outside. Some of the adults ate outside while the kids played. This picture doesn’t show it well, but we had over 30 people at our house!

We had a really fun evening together, and enjoyed pulling a few April Fool’s jokes. J
