April
I love Easter – it’s a great opportunity to relax with family and friends. It’s like a mini Christmas but with less hassle. The food’s simpler to prepare and you have more time to savour it all. To make your Easter extra-easy and delicious, we’ve got loads of exciting new recipes to try in our pick-and-mix menu. Our Lamb Cooked In A Salt Crust (p41) is perfect for large groups and guaranteed to impress – crack open the salt-dough case to reveal the mouth-wateringly juicy meat. And if you only try one dish this month, make it our amazing cover recipe, Chocolate Eggshells with Orange Jelly Mousse (p50). They’re a great way to use up leftover chocolate, fun to create and you can adapt them to use as bowls for serving desserts, too. Most importantly, organise an Easter egg hunt. The trickier the search, the sweeter the eggs taste, so make sure your family work hard for theirs – ideally kitted out with bunny face framers like our mag team (right). Make your own and share your pictures with @asda on Twitter and Instagram using #Asdamag. Happy Easter!

Our Reader Panel
For this special Easter issue, we invited readers to make some of our recipes and give us their verdicts. Find out more about them here…
Fiona Gagg ‘I live in Cardif with my husband and two children, and work as a laboratory manager. Cooking is how I relax – the more involved the recipe, the better. Our favourite family meal is chicken korma.’
Samantha McCulloch ‘I’m a teacher at a primary school in Newcastle Upon Tyne. I also run a cookery club for the children there – it’s great fun! My fance, David, and I enjoy making Italian meals such as pasta and risotto.’
Scott D’Arcy ‘I live in London with my girlfriend. I’m a writer now, but I discovered my love of food while working on Asda’s pizza and rotisserie counters. I’m told my lasagne and casseroles are especially good.’
