Mother’s Day Roundup Celebrating Mom
Mother’s Day is the one day of the year that Mom should be spoiled a little more than most days. She should not be in the kitchen making breakfast, lunch or dinner for the family, unless she wants to. I’ve gathered up a few of my favorite recipes that remind me of my Mom to share with you. Some are recipes that she has made for me, some are recipes that she often requests when we are together and others are recipes that I know she would love.
MOTHER’S DAY RECIPES:
BREAKFAST & BRUNCH
Make Mom’s morning with a delicious breakfast to start her day.
This Breakfast Casserole is perfect for Mother’s Day. It can be made the night before and popped into oven in the morning. It feeds a crowd, which makes it perfect for family gatherings.
If Mom prefers a light breakfast and a cup of coffee, these Easy Blueberry Peach Streusel Muffins are just the thing to make her morning delicious.
Maybe Mom loves hash browns? I certainly do and so does my Mom. This recipe will walk you through making the best, cheesiest, crispiest hash browns you’ve ever made. No more soggy hash browns, ever.
Is Mom always on the go? (The answer is probably yes) Make her a batch of these Granola Breakfast Cookies!
