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.
Gluten-free Eggs Benny: A unique take on the traditional version,Eggs Benedict with Sundried-tomato Polenta Cakes, Avocado and Yogurt Hollandaise is full of flavour, and it’s gluten-free.
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.
Baked French Toast: French Toast is a classic brunch dish, but this Baked Raspberry French Toast will soon become a new tradition.
Bread Pudding: Take a walk on the wild side and tryBlueberry Bacon Bread Pudding. That’s right – blueberries and bacon in the same dish!

Muffins: If your mom’s a continental breakfast lover, bake up a bevvy of muffins, like these Carrot Bran Muffinsmade without eggs or some Gluten-free Carrot Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins.
Macarons: These French treats are all the rage, and you can either buy a giftbox of assorted macarons, or try making these lemon macarons yourself. Which would your mom appreciate more?
