Give the mother in your life a gift of relaxation this quarantined Mother’s Day. We have looked to our cable channels, Food Network and HGTV and found some great recipes perfect for breakfast in bed and some DIY spa-like products you can make with things already around the house.
Chocolate-Banana Pancake Breakfast Casserole
Think bread pudding, but with pancakes. What isn’t there to love about that? This recipe is a fun way to jazz up ordinary pancakes with toppings customized to your mom’s taste. If she is more of a berry person, swap the bananas out for raspberries or strawberries!
Breakfast Sausage Casserole
This easy make-ahead casserole is a crowd-pleasing dish that takes no time at all to prepare. Let the kids help put it together the night before and then pop it in the oven before mom wakes up and everyone will have an easy morning.
Savory Stuffed French Toast
Flipping the classic French Toast recipe by turning it into a sandwich is a great way to please the sweet and savory lovers. Do not worry if crème fraiche isn’t something you keep on hand; you can substitute with a little mayonnaise or even just stick to the mustard as your main condiment.
Forget heading to the store or trying to get a gift delivered in time. You can make relaxing and soothing spa-like gifts for mom from things you probably already have at home.
Bath Bombs
Get the kids involved with adding the few ingredients to make these customizable bath bombs. Add them to a fun jar or container and mom will be ready for a relaxing and fizzy soak in the tub.
Essential Oil Milk Bath
This Pink Himalayan Rose milk bath kit will surely put a smile on mom’s face. Not only is it a beautiful gift, it will turn any bath time into relaxing spa time.
Sugar Scrubs 3 Ways
These scrubs are extremely easy with the base of sugar and coconut oil. From there, add scents that you know the mother in your life will love. Is it lemon or grapefruit for a bright citrusy scrub or lavender for a calming and soothing scrub? No matter what it is, this is another fun DIY gift that is super fun to get the kids involved with.
