Show mom how much you care with any of these amazing vegan Mother’s Day recipes. From breakfast to dessert, this roundup has everything you need to make mom’s day truly special.
Mother’s Day is right around the corner. And, because it’s such a special day you can’t afford bad recipes. So, I put together this amazing list that will help to make mom’s day truly special.
Mom’s give themselves and love in a unique way. They are willing to sacrifice and go without so we don’t have to. It’s a job they would have never applied for but wouldn’t trade it for all the money in the world. And, far too often these precious women never get the recognition they deserve.
This year, whether you’re celebrating your mother, grandmother, sister, cousin, or friend, let them feel celebrated. To us, it’s only a meal or a dessert, but to them, it’s a banquet fit for a queen. Because they know they’ve been remembered, cherished, and loved.
Happy Mother’s Day, moms! You embody all that is truth, beauty, and goodness in a world that is not always kind or peaceful.
