Brunch Ideas For Your Fabulous Mom Friends this Mother’s Day

Now’s the time to celebrate your BFFs who are such amazing mothers! Here are some ideas for hosting a fun get-together this Mother’s Day, with delicious food and drinks on hand.

Treat your besties to a delicious feast – as busy moms, they’ll love not having to worry about meals for one day! A great idea for Mother’s Day meals is to bake a scrumptious cake. This recipe for a salted caramel and chocolate cake by Jamie Oliver hits all the right spots. Best of all, if your friends are worried about eating unhealthily, you can use dark chocolate that’s loaded with healthy antioxidants.

Of course, you also want to give your guests some tasty, nutritious meals. The key is to make sure everything looks delicious as well as tastes amazing. Here are some food ideas.

Bake Savoury Bread

This bread is made with ham and cheese, and it’s really easy to make. Serve it with a delicious egg salad for a satisfying lunch.  Best of all, any leftovers can be toasted the next morning.

Serve Ricotta Pancakes

If you’ve already got dessert lined up but you don’t want to miss out on tasty pancakes, make them savoury with ricotta and cornmeal. Top them off with some honey or slices of oranges. Delicious!

Add Thyme Potato Chips

Got some friends who don’t eat meat or dairy? Make yummy potato chips with thyme and chili. These are great on their own or as a side-dish to other main dishes.

Go For Comforting Broccoli Soup

The weather’s getting colder, so you might want to add a warm, comforting soup to your brunch. This broccoli and basil soup also contains potatoes and onion. It’s a satisfying and nutritious must!

Don’t Forget The Cocktails!

Since you’re celebrating, make some interesting cocktails that will be fun for your guests to try. A great idea is an Earl Grey Martini. It’s a trendy twist on an old classic, and the bergamot oil in the Earl Grey tea provides a burst of orange flavour. It’s really easy to make. You’ll need some gin, Earl Grey loose leaves, and ice.

Another cocktail idea is the “Summer rose.” It sounds delicious, doesn’t it? It’s a lovely, refreshing drink that’s a pretty pink colour to uplift your mood. Packed with blueberries, lemon, and lavender, it’s feminine and sweet.

Don’t Forget to Diffuse

Add some uplifting vibes the your day by diffusing some essential oils. Our favourite blend is 2 drops wintergreen + 6 drops orange or tangerine. You could even host a make and take and make up some fun rollerball blends. Find out more here.
