Nothing makes for an easier or more delicious breakfast than a frittata. There are so many different ingredients and variations to choose from; you can tailor one perfectly to your mom's tastes. And, many of the ingredients are probably already sitting in your fridge.
The basics:
eggs, olive oil, salt, pepper, veggies and protein. Choose from turkey, chicken, sausage, bacon or tofu and don't forget your mom's favorite cheese.
For a delicious vegetarian version of the frittata, make Moma scrumptious Spinach and PotatoFrittata.
If you're looking for a version with meat, try the Easy Herb Frittata with ham. Both of these recipes from Allrecipes.com have received rave reviews!
Once your frittata is prepared, round out the meal with fruit salad. Include bananas, apples, peaches and pears with a little squeeze of fresh lemon juice on top to keep the fresh fruit from browning.
And allow mom to relax with a Strawberry Bellini so she feels like a queen.

Sandwiches are so passé. Wow your Mom with an eye-catching and palate-pleasing chopped salad. Our recommendation is the BBQ Pork Salad withSummer Fruits & Honey Balsamic Vinaigrette.
If you prefer, you can substitute the pork with BBQ chicken breast or omit the grapefruit.
Then, whip up a BrazilianLemonade.The deceivingly-named drink is actually a limeade, which plays well off the flavor of the BBQ chicken or pork in the salad.

Are you ready to go all out by preparing the biggest meal of the day for Mom? Making a nice dinner requires more prep time, patience and perseverance, but it's all worth it if you really want to impress Mom.
First, choose a recipe that will be easy to make yet make a big impact. We suggest making a BroiledHalibut with Goat Cheese Crust or Ginger Soy Sea Bass (see recipe below).
Both of these dishes pair well with Mashed Potatoes If you go with the Ginger Soy Sea Bass you can add a little wasabi to the mashed potatoes for a spicy Asian flair.
Though creating dinner for Mom might seem intimidating, AllRecipes.com makes it quite doable. The best part is that these dishes all look as good as they taste.
Impressing Mom has never been so rewarding!
