Ever since my husband and I got married, we spend at least half of our Sunday evening meals each month at a family member’s home. The family hosting plans the meal and then asks those who are coming to pitch in and bring something to share. It’s been a great way to both save on the cost of food and enjoy time with family. With Mother’s Day coming up, I know many people, including my family, are going to be getting together to celebrate mothers, wives, sisters, aunts, grandmothers and other special women in their life. This year, my husband and I will be hosting Mother’s Day dinner at our house, which means we get to plan the meal.
My husband’s family is fairly large and there are over 20 people to feed when everyone gets together. This can get a little overwhelming, but I’ve gotten fairly good at planning food for so many people in the 9 years my husband and I have been married. Whether you have a large family or are on the smaller side, I have a Mother’s Day menu that can be adapted to serve any size. All recipes come from my blog and in the case of dessert, I’m sharing a few options to choose from depending on taste preferences. Or you can make all of them. Hey, it’s for Mother’s Day! *wink*
