To help with the festivities this weekend, I asked my dietitian colleagues to provide some of their favorite Mother’s Day recipes to treat their moms, and they certainly didn’t disappoint.
In addition to the joys of flowers blooming and warmer weather, one of the most special days of the year happens to fall in May, and that is Mother’s Day! While you don’t need a specific day to celebrate moms, this is the perfect time to thank the mothers in your life for each and every wonderful thing they do (and did) for you.
From breakfast to dessert, there is sure to be something among these Mother’s Day recipes that will bring a smile to a special woman in your life. So, go ahead and spoil your mom in all the right ways. Happy Mother’s Day!
