Happy Tuesday, friends!
In honor of Mother’s Day weekend (can you believe it’s coming up?!), I thought I’d share some of my favorite mamas’ recipes with you! All of these recipes are easy, super delicious and perfect for your holiday weekend or your upcoming summer.
From my family to yours, wishing you a wonderful (almost!) Mother’s Day!
What is the most popular summer recipe on my blog about ten years running?! My mom’s CORN SALAD! This recipe is crazy simple and super delish. I also love it because you make it in advance which is so helpful when hosting a backyard party or when you’re bringing something potluck. Make it, take it, everyone will love it!
Speaking of summer party recipes, I cannot tell you the last time we hosted a summer get together where I didn’t make my mother-in-law’s Pepperoni & Bell Pepper Pasta Salad! Not only is this recipe amazing for hosting, but this is one we make all the time for a delicious lunch or simple supper. This is very family-friendly, can be made in advance, gets better the longer you keep it in the fridge and perfect for taking with you should you need to take a dish to a get together. You will love this recipe too!
If you need a simple breakfast recipe this weekend, my mother-in-law’s Sausage Breakfast Casserole is it! I have made this breakfast casserole more than any other breakfast item. I love to make this the night before and then bake it and serve the next morning. It’s hearty, it’s filling, it’s the perfect breakfast or even dinner recipe. You will love it!
Both moms love to make stew! If the weather is still a bit chilly where you are, they each have their own spin on a classic…
…growing up, my mom always served a Ground Beef Stew while Andrew’s mom…
…makes the most delicious traditional stew. Both are winners!
My Mom’s Slow Cooker Jambalaya is a put it in and forget about it fave. If you have a crazy May and need something simple to serve for supper, here you go!
And finally, for dessert…
…my Grandmother’s Trifle. When I close my eyes and think of summer desserts, this one here is one of two that I always think of. My grandmother is famous for this delicious trifle recipe and…
…her Strawberry Banana Pie! You need to seriously make both!
Delicious recipes from amazing women.
I hope you try some of them to honor and celebrate the favorite ladies in your life! xx

My grandmother’s been gone 15 years- she was my very best friend, and I still remember going to her house after school when she would make me fresh baked cupcakes. Your food post brought me back to that happy idyllic time. Thank you xoxo.
