For Mother’s Day, I know I’ll be hinting at <this> menu, because I have confidence my partner and son can pull these recipes off. They’re designed to work when kids (get them to help with the pancakes) and adults (who do the chopping and oven work) are involved together.
These recipes are beautiful, delicious, and flexible, which means plant-based or vegetable-forward moms (like me!) can be treated to a special occasion meal that will leave them feeling their best.
Begin Mother’s Day with a one-bowl pancake she can top to the max. Or, for the savory-loving Mom, serve our avocado tartine with addicting umami sauce; it’s every bit as good as it looks. For lunch, a bowl filled with nourishing ingredients dazzles.
Snacks and dinner are glam-yet-casual because moms deserve to be comfy all day (think organic cotton sweatpants). And dessert, my favorite part of the day, is a chocolate mousse pie that is plant based, gluten free, and filled with a surprising amount of feel-good ingredients; topped with seasonal berries and coconut whipped cream, it’ll be hard to stop at one slice.
Glam, doable, and oh-so-good recipes that will bring a smile to Mom’s face—this truly special lineup will be one to remember, share, and gush over, year after year.
