Mother's Day Brunch Round-Up

0 Comments

 
​Mother’s Day is just a week away. It’s a chance to pause, reflect, and truly honor the incredible women who have shaped our lives. Whether you're celebrating your own mom, a mother figure, or yourself (because let’s be real—moms deserve the spotlight!), there’s no better way to say "thank you" than with a beautiful, heartfelt brunch.

Set the Scene
Start with ambiance. Fresh flowers, a soft playlist, and a table adorned with pastel linens or vintage china go a long way. Whether you're indoors or hosting al fresco in the garden, a few thoughtful touches can transform your brunch into a memory-maker.
​
Don’t forget a handwritten note or card. A few meaningful words can last longer than even the flakiest croissant.
Check out these greeting cards in my Redbubble Store.

What's On the Menu?
I’ve gathered a delicious selection of recipes that are as beautiful as they are easy to make. Whether you're cooking everything yourself or divvying up the dishes potluck-style, these recipes will help you create a brunch that’s both impressive and stress-free.
​Savory & Satisfying
Caramelized Onion Pie from Living Linda
Similar to a quiche, this Caramelized Onion Pie with Herbs de Provence is ultra-creamy made with caramelized onions, cheese, and a gluten free crust.

Chilled Strawberry Soup from Living Linda
This Chilled Strawberry Soup takes the familiar flavors of strawberries and balances them with the peppery kick of black pepper, the fresh herbal notes of basil, and the crisp crunch of radishes.  It's perfect for warm weather -- light, refreshing, and versatile. ​

Sips & Sparkles
Sparkling Raspberry Lemonade from Living Linda
Sweet Endings
Julia Child's Cherry Clafoutis Made Gluten Free from Living Linda
This gluten-free version maintains the essence of Julia Child's classic recipe while accommodating those with gluten sensitivities.  This dish is the perfect accompaniment to the sweet cherries; it is both elegant yet easy to make.​

The Joy of Gathering
Brunch isn’t just about the food (although that helps!). It’s about creating a moment of connection. This Mother’s Day, take the time to sit, slow down, and truly be present. Share laughs. Tell stories. Snap lots of pictures. And of course, make sure mom doesn't lift a finger.
Whether you're hosting a big family affair or enjoying a quiet morning with just a few loved ones, I hope this Mother’s Day brunch brings joy, comfort, and full hearts (and bellies).
Don't forget to check out the recipe links below for everything I included in my spread—and feel free to mix and match to create your own dreamy brunch menu!
Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible moms out there—you are deeply loved and endlessly appreciated.
