Tips for Mother’s Day Brunch

  • Prep ahead of time. Dishes that can be made ahead of time and either warmed up or served chilled are all great for Mother’s Day. If you want to cook something fresh, such as food on the grill (like marinated chicken), be sure to marinate everything the night before. Then it’s ready to rock when the time comes.
  • Have a mix of sweet and savory dishes. To ensure you’re pleasing everyone’s brunch cravings, combine sweet and savory brunch staples, such as pancakesscrambled eggs, and hash browns. Have an assortment of toppings for your pancakes, such as homemade jam, maple syrup, and butter with lots of fresh fruit.
  • Set up everything buffet-style. This makes the brunch much easier to serve family style in large dishes, and it will ensure everyone is happy and gets what they want!
  • Enhance with decorative garnish. A sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley, basil, or green onions instantly transforms even the most basic egg omelet into a showstopper. Or add a touch of vibrant flair with fresh lemon zest.

How to Plan Mother’s Day Brunch Menu

  • Consider Mom’s preferences. Start by thinking about Mom’s favorite foods, flavors, and dietary preferences, and tailor the menu to include the dishes she loves the most.
  • Keep it simple or go fancy. Decide if you want to choose a few simple but standout dishes that you know will be a hit or step outside your comfort zone and go with elaborate to impress Mom.
  • Incorporate seasonal produce. Add freshness, flavor, and color to your dishes by choosing fruits and vegetables typically in season around Mother’s Day. These include fresh berries, rhubarb, stone fruits, asparagusartichokes, radishes, and carrots.
  • Include protein-forward meals. Make sure Mom feels satisfied and energized by including ingredients that are naturally rich in protein. Eggs, lean meats, dairy, and beans will help provide a balanced and hearty brunch.
  • Don’t forget the drinks! Make sure your delicious spread includes a mix of your mom’s favorite drinks, both hot and cold like whipped coffeecold brew, or ginger turmeric tea.
