Ideas for Mother's Day

  • A Mother’s Day Celebration

    Mom deserves an extra-special meal on Mother’s Day, and this elegant menu fits the bill. Start by raising a toast to her with a champagne cocktail and serving beautiful tartines, slices of toasted bread slathered with olive butter and topped with colorful spring radishes. A large fillet of salmon slow-roasted on a bed of colorful citrus fruits makes an impressive centerpiece for the meal and is surprisingly easy to make. For the grand finale, serve cute cakelets sweetened with honey and lightly spiced with cinnamon and cardamom.

  • Mother’s Day Brunch Celebration

    Surprise Mom with a wonderful brunch on her special day. The main course features a creative spin on traditional eggs Florentine, with savory waffles standing in for English muffins. To round out the meal, serve crispy hash browns and cherry-almond quick bread. Set a beautiful spring table with vases of fresh flowers, and raise a toast to the Mom in your life.

  • Gluten-Free Mother’s Day Menu

    Maintaining a gluten-free diet on Mother’s Day is no sacrifice with this springtime brunch menu. A satisfying frittata filled with fresh asparagus and tangy goat cheese makes a delicious main course, while sweet-savory bacon and a vibrant fruit salad round out the meal.

    A brunch that you've cooked yourself is a lovely way to honor Mom on her special day. This simple menu, perfect for a casual gathering, includes a decadent French toast made with lemon curd and topped with a compote made from the first strawberries of the season. Apple and sausage patties add a savory note to the meal, and meringue cookies sandwiching chocolate ganache make a perfectly sweet ending to the meal.

  • Brunch for Mom
    A Kid-Friendly Mother's Day Menu

    Kids love to help cook breakfast for mom on Mother’s Day, so gather the little ones in the kitchen to help make this easy yet festive meal. Pancakes are beloved by kids and grownups alike, especially when they’re studded with fresh blueberries and dusted with confectioners’ sugar. Maple-glazed bacon is easy to make by simply brushing the slices with maple syrup a few minutes before they are done baking in the oven. Even the youngest kids can get in on the action by helping to assemble fruit parfaits made with purchased yogurt and granola. Serve it all with nonalcoholic sparkling citrus spritzers that the whole family can enjoy.
