It's always adorable when kids attempt to surprise Mom with breakfast in bed—it used to be a tradition for the Drummond kids, too. But let's be honest—wouldn't sleeping in on Mother's Day sound even more divine? We certainly think so! That's why we've rounded up these Mother's Day lunch ideas so Mom can hit the snooze button and still enjoy a delicious meal on her special day. Here, you'll find our favorite Mother's Day lunch recipes including spring salads, sides, and comfort food classics.
Whether you're hosting a crowd or simply packing up sandwiches for a picnic in the park, there are so many delicious (and easy) lunch recipes that Mom will love. If your mom is anything like Ree Drummond, she'll appreciate a good pasta recipe—like the shrimp pesto pasta, the spinach lasagna, or even the chicken saltimbocca with buttery parsley noodles. Looking for something a little lighter? Try a Greek salad with chicken, turkey burgers, or the cream of asparagus soup that's perfect for springtime. While many of these Mother's Day lunches are elegant enough for a sit-down meal, they're also quick and easy so you can get back to spending quality time with Mom—it's the best Mother's Day gift you can give, after all!
