Skip the long restaurant lines and spend some quality time with Mom at home by preparing a gourmet brunch for her this Mother's Day
Mother’s Day is one of the busiest days in the restaurant industry. So if you have the kind of mom who prefers a quiet, homecooked meal, it’s time to don your apron and whip up a little something special for her special day.
Not only is this a great way to spend some quality time together, but she’ll also be impressed by the effort you put into making her something delicious and unique.
Here’s a selection of our favourite recipes for a special Mother’s Day brunch that’ll wow your mom.

Salmon and Broccoli Casserole: If you’re serving brunch for the whole family, try a larger dish like this unusual Bagel, Salmon and Broccoli Casserole, which is sure to impress and satisfy.
Fancy Grilled Cheese: If Mom isn’t a big fan of eggs, make her a gourmet sandwich like a Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Peaches and Basil.
