Brunch Menu

Sunday Brunch

Mimosas and Bloody Marys for a Sunday celebration

Was trying to work out a brunch menu this morning.  The key to planning brunch is to have several good recipes that are quick, easy, and reliable. 

And, since I love Sunday brunch, decided to dig through my recipe files.  Here are some of my absolute favorites from The Food Network. 

Banana Nut Crunch Muffins, Ina Garten, Barefoot Contessa

And, even if you are just having brunch alone, don't forget to set the table.  The Sunday newspaper or your iPad is also a must.  Happy Sunday!
