MOTHER’S DAY BREAKFAST IN BED MENU
Written by Just Water
Let's face it, folks. Mom deserves a break. This Mother's Day, skip the wilted flowers and the coupon for "One Free Chore" (seriously, who even uses those?). This year, grab your apron and get ready to master chef your way to favorite child or husband status with this delicious Mother's Day Breakfast in Bed Menu!
The Menu
Because who doesn't love a light and fluffy crepe smothered in whipped cream and juicy strawberries? Bonus points for remembering to bring mom the jar of nutella just in case she wants to treat herself with a chocolatey spin on the glorious golden griddle goodness (say that five times fast, we’ll wait) that is these crepes.
Forget the box mix & step away from the toaster waffles–these secret ingredient pancakes are fluffier than a poodle in the tropics (that humidity doesn’t play around). One taste of these fabulous flapjacks will have mom forgiving you for the dark ages that was your teenage years.
Skip the hangover-inducing mimosa and treat Mom to a zero proof, 100% delicious Orange Creamsicle Faux-Mosa. It’s booze free bubbly that won’t send mom into “one too many” mode requiring a post-mosa nap.
Citrus-Spiked Sparkling Brule Cold Brew
This ain't your average cup of joe. We're talking cold brew infused with the zest of citrus fruits and topped with a touch of sparkling magic. It's basically a hug in a mug, with a little extra zing. Plus, no breakfast in bed is complete without the energy elixir that is coffee.
Best Ever Scrambled Eggs
No one, especially mom, deserves watery, sad eggs for the most important meal of the day. Level up this quintessential brekkie favorite with a sparkly twist that’ll give you the best, light & fluffy scrambled eggs that earn a “holy CRACK, these are good” (see what we did there?). Check the deets below!
What You’ll Need…
- ¼ cup JUST Original Bubbles

- Heat a pan over medium heat and melt the butter or ghee.

Insider tip:
Want to add a twist to these fluffy eggs? Swap the Original Bubbles with Lemon Bubbles & lemon pepper for standard pepper. Now you’ve got yourself a zesty spin on the OG scramble!
Final Touches
Serve up the eggs with buttered toast, sliced avocado, and mom’s choice of crispy bacon, juicy sausage, or the plant-based version of both. If moms feeling spicy, you can serve the eggs up with Mexican rice, refried beans, salsa, guacamole, & warmed tortillas for a “build your own breakfast burrito” situation that’ll have her reminiscing on Cinco de Mayo just a few days back.
One Last Thing
Now that you’ve whipped up the perfect breakfast, don’t forget the finishing touches. in bed Remember the flowers (unless mom's got allergies, then maybe skip those), write a heartfelt card telling her how special she is, and hey, if you want to score some major brownie points, offer to take care of all the house chores for the day (because no one wants to vacuum on a day they’re being celebrated & pampered).
So go grab your apron, pick up those last minute gifts, & start thinking about all the reasons you love mom, because she deserves to be reminded on Mother’s Day & really any day–I mean, she did put up with your teenage angst, your terrible twos, and those college years when you came home just to do laundry and take a break from cafeteria cuisine for a mom made meal.
To all the mamas, grandmamas, & mama figures out there, we see you, we love you, & we wouldn’t be here without you (literally).
