We’ve got spring cooking and baking on the brain this week, and so do the Diamond of California® Culinary Ambassadors! Sally of Sally’s Baking Addiction is stopping in today is share her Mother’s Day menu. Here’s what she’ll be serving:

Mother’s Day is just around the corner and it’s time to make mom a treat or meal she’ll remember until next year. I recently asked my friends what kind of food they’d love for Mother’s Day and there was an overwhelming amount of chocolate in the responses. I like their thinking!

The following easy recipes are ones the whole family can help make. Whether that’s homemade muffins for breakfast, a colorful berry-packed lunch, tropical chicken for dinner, or lots of chocolate for dessert. Win extra points with these recipes!
