When I think of my mom, many adjectives come to mind: loving, supportive, sacrificial, hardworking, resilient. If you’re as fortunate as I am to have this type of mom, it’s only fitting that you’d want to celebrate her in a big way on Mother’s Day. Our list of Mother’s Day brunch recipes, drink recipes, plus menu ideas should provide plenty of inspiration to spoil the woman who gave you life. 

Mother’s Day Brunch Recipes

Keto Breakfast Tostada

Keto Breakfast Tostada

Sun-Dried Tomato Bacon Frittata

Less complicated than folding an omelet yet just as impressive, this frittata features puffed eggs punctured with smoky bacon, sweet sun-dried tomatoes, and garlic aioli mayo.

Gluten-Free Vanilla Coconut Waffles 

Gluten-Free Vanilla Coconut Waffles

Few can resist the toasted texture of still-warm waffles plucked from the waffle maker. Flavored with a touch of vanilla from our vanilla coconut collagen, these gluten- and grain-free waffles satisfy without the bloat.

Keto Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins 

Keto Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

If you’ve caught mom staring longingly at the muffins for sale at a coffee shop but she doesn’t ever order them because of the carbs, sugar, oils, blah, blah, so on… why not treat her to some freshly baked—and keto-friendly—muffins? The lemon poppy seed variety provides a delicate citrusy flavor with the pleasing pop from the poppy seeds.

Paleo Pecan Sticky Buns 

Paleo Pecan Sticky Buns

If mom is an eggs-and-sausage, savory breakfast person, she’ll love this make-ahead Whole30 breakfast casserole.

Pitaya Berry Smoothie Bowl with Collagen

Pitaya Berry Smoothie Bowl

This vivacious magenta smoothie bowl stuns not only for its aesthetics, but also for the fact that it’s a no-cook recipe. Blend the ingredients together, pour into a bowl, and top with sweet-and-sour pomegranate seeds, a drizzle of nut or seed butter, and a handful of gluten-free granola.

Whole30 Vegan Buffalo Sauce Cauliflower Wings

Keto Breakfast Tacos with Spicy Ketchup

Keto Breakfast Tacos with Spicy Ketchup

The lacy, delicate “tortillas” used in this keto recipe are made from pan-crisped melted cheese. Have no fear—pile up shredded cheese in a skillet, melt, then drape over a rolling pin, paper towel tube, or skinny reusable water bottle, then fill the tortillas with scrambled eggs and bacon.

Keto Vegan Rainbow Salad

They say we eat with our eyes, and this vegan salad is a cornucopia of vibrant colors and textures. Feel free to add nuts, seeds, lupini beans, or any vegan protein source.

Mother’s Day Menu Ideas

Menu for the Keto Warrior 

No frills or fanfare needed for this practical mom who minds her carb counts and likely considers wine to be a splurge. Honor her dedicated discipline by taking the kettlebell out of her hands, putting her feet up on the couch, and serving her these dishes (just make sure not to leave dirty dishes in the sink).

Menu for the Keto Flexitarian

She doesn’t sweat dipping out of ketosis every now and again because she’s confident in her metabolic flexibility. Serve her the yin-yang balance of keto-friendly sustenance and treat. 

Menu for the Gluten-Free Gal

Gluten-free food isn’t as out of the ordinary or, to be frank, tasteless as it used to be. Treat your mom to tasty dishes that even she may not believe are gluten-free.

Menu for the Dairy-Free Female

This momma may not eat or drink milk and other dairy products, but that doesn’t mean you can’t find a decadent dish to serve her that’s not dripping with melty cheese or iced with a cream cheese frosting.

Menu for the Vegan Momma

Animal products are a no-go for this Earth-loving mom, but that doesn’t mean you need to limit her culinary breakfast options to seasoned scrambled tofu, sauteed greens, and sprouted bread. Make her something as colorful and thoughtful as she strives to be. 

Menu for the Paleo Parent

This paleo or Primal parent may eschew grains, canola and other vegetable oils, and sugar, and she may or may not eat dairy. Toe the safe side and whip up some dairy-free delicacies that are Grok(ette) worthy.

Menu for the Omnivore

Healthy-ish or intuitive eater might be the best way to categorize this mom’s preferences, but she likely doesn’t apply many strict rules to her eating regimen. She embodies the 80/20 principle, naturally abiding by the “everything in moderation, including moderation” philosophy.

Whole30 Wonder Woman

Clean eating without distractions (sorry, no revamped muffins or treats allowed) is the name of this game for at least 30 days, so show mom you support her efforts by whipping up a Whole30-approved masterpiece on her special day.
