Treating Mom right

To me, nothing defines a special day more than breakfast prepared with heart and soul, which often means a time committment. Yet so many times, the time committment is a challenge. With Mother's Day approaching this weekend, the boys and I almost always start the day off for Kari with a special breakfast. Some years, there is more time involved than others but planning and executing is always so much fun.

Quiche is one dish that does not have to take a lot of time, but the finished product almost always looks like there was much put into preparing it. A continued strength of Tastefully Simple products is the execution of something delicious, with plenty of thought and preparation put into a meal while also not having to put in the time. You can really have all that you want. So often, quiche will be involved in the breakfast we prepare.

In celebration of Mom - the time she deserves with those close to her and the end result of something special to start off her day, I think the Corn, Black Bean Quiche below (featuring one of my absolute favorite products) is a great way to go.
