Spring is a great season for brunches. Whether you host one for Easter, a bridal shower for a glowing June bride, or for Mother’s Day, brunch has the ability to be just late enough so you can sleep in and just early enough in the day that you can host and still enjoy the sunshine post-party.

Brunch foods are also spring-friendly, often relying on light, fresh early season vegetables in egg dishes or the season’s first strawberries. Plus, they look fantastic with the tulips and everyone’s white clothes that have been pulled out of storage.

If you’re planning a brunch, head to Jessica’s post on Brunch inspiration and Planning, and then grab a few of these mouth-watering recipes.
