Lent Saturday Breads 2026

I made bread on each Saturday of Lent as a Spiritual discipline. I shared the breads with friends and neighbors.

These are "Empty Tomb" rolls for Easter Sunday morning. When you bite into them, there is an empty space representing the empty tomb. 

Epiphany King Cake

This is a gluten free King Cake. I made it for our Epiphany Party. It is a pastry filled with Cream Cheese and walnuts, rolled up and placed in a circle. It is frosted with purple, green and yellow "royal" colors. The person who gets the "Baby Jesus" in his or her serving becomes the king for the evening and wears the crown. That person is king for the year and plans next year's party!

3-Layer Sandwiches

This is loaves of homemade bread -- whole wheat and white. The loaves are sliced horizontally, making three layers. The fillings are Chicken Salad, Ham Salad and Egg Salad. One loaf will serve 6 to 8. A slice is about 1 inch thick. The "frosting" is softened Cream Cheese. The "flower" is black olive. The stem and leaves are cream cheese colored green. 

These went over very well at the bridal shower and at the Church brunch .
