Breakfast in bed is a luxurious moment of self-care that any mom would appreciate waking up to on Mother's Day (or her birthday, an anniversary, or on any other special occasion). Whether the mom in your life is always cooking everyone else's breakfast, or she's usually out the door before the first meal of the day is even served, treating her to a homemade breakfast in bed is the ultimate Mother's Day gift.
So, this Mother's Day (which is on Sunday, May 8 this year, FYI), get the mimosas and coffee ready and pick out one of the best breakfast in bed recipes for the special woman in your life. Whether she prefers pancakes, eggs, a perfect sandwich, breakfast pastries, or a yogurt parfait in the morning, we've got all kinds of yummy ideas. Every recipe on this list is delicious and easy to put together, so you really can't go wrong. Not to mention, these meals can easily be transported. If the special person lives close by, but you're social distancing, you can drop breakfast off at their front door for the ultimate Mother's Day surprise. If kids are around, get them in on the action by letting them know how sweet it is to make food for their mom — after all, it is the perfect DIY gift idea.
