Healthy Breakfast In Bed Mother’s Day Ideas

When I was growing up we were not big on all these Hallmark holidays and we certainly never bought any cards.  We did however always acknowledge my Mom on both Mother’s Day and her birthday with breakfast in bed. 

I am not sure how the tradition started, but she always loved to sleep in and so we had the time to bring her a surprise.  The trick to a good breakfast in bed, is to keep it low on the crumb scale and I like to make sure to keep it healthy with a treat. 

Here are 3 suggestions for healthy breakfasts in bed for mom – feel free to forward to the men or children in your lives for some inspiration.

If you don’t want to cook or don’t like eggs, make mom a yogurt parfait with her favorite toppings.  (I like tahini and silan, but you can find out what your mom likes)

WATERMELON POMEGRANATE GREEN TEA

Fresh fruit and herb flavored tea is the perfect spa drink to accompany the yogurt parfait.
