A big thanks to Honey Bunches of Oats for providing today’s delicious recipes! All opinions are my own.
On a recent survey, more than 500 moms were asked what they want for Mother’s Day. Want to know the surprising results? The top survey answer moms want are handmade gifts from their children. So why not pamper mom with breakfast in bed? A homemade meal is a great opportunity for dad or an older sibling to teach the younger ones how to cook. And it’s an inexpensive gift that will truly make mom smile.
Here’s 3 amazing Mother’s Day breakfast in bed recipes. Take your pick!
