Celebrate Mother’s Day with a Fool-Proof Menu

Mother’s Day has been celebrated in the United States for over 100 years as a way of honoring the sacrifices the mom in your life makes.  We love Mother’s Day, and what is a better way to celebrate the holiday than to make your Mother breakfast?

To get you started, we went ahead and made a Mother’s Day menu for your Mom—all you have to do is get cooking! Make this Mother’s Day extra special by serving Mom breakfast in bed!

Tropical Smoothie
Maybe you can’t send your mom on a tropical vacation, but make her feel like she is relaxing somewhere tropical with this smoothie!  It is super refreshing and we know she will love it!

Buttermilk Pancakes
Buttermilk Pancakes are a breakfast staple.  We love them because they are light and fluffy! Make your pancakes extra special by topping or mixing in Mom’s favorite ingredients, like bananas, blueberries, strawberries, chopped nuts, or raspberries.

Basic Frittata
A Frittata is a great make-ahead breakfast. The best part is, you can customize it with your mom’s favorite vegetables, meat, and fresh herbs!

Layered Yogurt Parfait
Parfaits are not only pretty to look at, they are tasty too!  Our layered yogurt parfait is a great no-cook recipe for breakfast.  Top your yogurt and fruit with granola. We recently tested Viki’s granola—it’s packed with healthy ingredients and great flavor!

Once you have cooked, don’t forget to clean up! That means washing dishes, wiping down counters, and sweeping up any crumbs. Our favorite cleaning products that get the job done are Casabella.
