Try this healthy Mother’s Day parfait to show your special Mom just how much of a rockstar she is!

Spring has sprung! Flowers are smiling! The farmer’s market is the place to be each weekend! So let’s use that to our advantage.

Mom’s are awesome. That’s just a fact. However, moms who have managed to power through over a whole year of stay-at-home school, working from home, and missing out on social life? No, that’s just Wonder Woman. AKA, pretty much every Mom in 2020, right? It’s time to treat her to some good old-fashioned self-care.

Of course, every Mother’s Day should be exceptional…but, we can all agree that this year deserves to score some extra points. What’s the best way to kick off a day full of Mom’s favorite things? Brunch. 

Feel free to break out the chef hat and work some cheffy magic. This dish will make a great first course that will pair perfectly with any mimosa! Mom approved.
