1. The Hands-On Breakfast In Bed
No fork. No knife. Just the stupifyingly satisfying experience of
a breakfast you can wrap your hands around. This ham-and-egg
breakfast sandwich carries a punch of garlicky pesto
and a slight smokiness from roasted red peppers. You can use store-bought
pesto, personalize it with a from-scratch pesto with fresh
kale ormint and basil made
the night before. You’ll want a clean-tasting, crisp side to balance the
richness: These quick refrigerator
picklesdo nicely. (Don’t miss our tips on poaching eggs.)

2. The One-Pan Breakfast In Bed
The chard breakfast
skillet with egg, onion, and tomatorequires no side
dishes—except maybe a slice of toast to mop up the delicious juices afterward.

3. The Egg-Centric Breakfast In Bed
For sheet comfort, it’s hard to beat a plate of farmers’ market
scrambled eggs. Pair them with a minted
honey-lime fruit salad.
4/9
4. The Quickie Breakfast In Bed
Is time of the essence? A microwave helps turn yummy breakfast
burritos into a 7-minute proposition. Store-bought
crepes still look—and taste—great; use them to make savory, omega-3-rich smoked salmon
and chive crepes, or indulge a sweet tooth with asumptuous
filling of fresh strawberries, brown sugar, orange zest,
and cream.
5/9
5. The Liquid Breakfast In Bed
Prefer to start the day with some smoothie recipes?
Try these blender breakfasts on for size. Don’t let the pink-liciousness of
thisbreakfast
smoothie fool you— the berries turn on detoxifying
enzymes and ginger stimulates digestion. Natural peanut butter lends a somewhat
coarse texture to a hearty peanut butter
and yogurt smoothie, while corn flakes added just enough
carbs to give a healthy boost in this blueberry- and banana-fortified soy smoothie.

6. The Oatmeal Upgrade In Bed
An easy way to get out of the box with your oatmeal strategy:
Serve up an indulgent cinnamon-mocha version
loaded with antioxidants (from dark chocolate), potassium (from banana), and
heart-healthy fat, thanks to crunchy hazelnuts, or a bowl of blueberries ‘n’
cream(topped with berries, lemon zest, and Greek yogurt).
Or try savory toppings like cheddar, bacon,
and walnuts. Pour a cup of cinnamon-spiced spiced Mexican coffee to
go with it.
7/9
7. The Dessert-For-Breakfast In Bed
Chocoholic moms (is there any other kind?) will love this decadentchocolate- and
cream cheese-stuffed French toast topped with
strawberries macerated in sugar and orange zest. Serve it with a couple of
strips of your favorite organic bacon and a homemadehazelnut latte.
8/9
8. The Waffle Bar Breakfast In Bed
Let your waffle iron (or toaster) do the heavy lifting, and then
put together a choose-your-own topping array of fixins. Have fun with this!
Peanut butter, ricotta, banana, and
strawberries; almond butter
and fresh-pitted cherries; and peaches ‘n’
cream—all are all fantastic. If you’re feeling ambitious,
try making your ownblueberry sauce or sweet orange
syrup instead of (or in addition) to maple.
9/9
9. The Perfect Parfait In Bed
Fruit. Yogurt. Crunchy bits on top. Think you know the parfait?
Think again. Simmering pineapple with cinnamon and honey and serving it over
spiced yogurt under a shower of chopped pistachios yields adelicious twist
on the tradition. Round out the menu with toasted whole
grain bread topped with almond butter
and a ripe, sliced pear, along with a café au lait.
