What does Mom want?

Before making a rich, indulgent breakfast, ask yourself if this is something mom would love. Does she prefer a sweet treat or something light? Take her preferences into consideration! If she loves protein, load up the plate with or a yogurt parfait.

  • Yogurt
  • Mixed Berries
  • Bacon

However, if she savors decadent foods, be prepared to make fluffy, flavorful pancakes drizzled with delicious Maple Syrup. Don’t forget the whip cream!

PRO-TIP: To prevent kitchen noise on Sunday, pre-measure all dry ingredients the night before and mix the liquids in the morning.

Plate Smart!

Before preparing mom’s indulgent breakfast, do you have a tray? Is it rimmed to catch spills? Try to use wide plates to prevent spillage and don’t fill beverages all the way to the top. Consider pouring coffee or drinks into a thermos to stay warm (or cold!)

 

You cook, you clean.

The last thing mom wants is to clean her breakfast mess. To avoid looking like a tornado hit the kitchen, try to clean as you go. Before anything else, clean before she gets out of bed! She’ll be happy and impressed, feeling spoiled like the queen she is!
