Brunch has become one of my absolute favorite meals.
Not only is it the best of both worlds–breakfast and lunch–but it also has so much sentimental value.
Brunch is a meal that you share with loved ones and can always look forward to.
Whether it’s on Sundays or whichever day of the week that you plan a brunch, you know you can always expect to share delicious food, exchange funny stories and spend quality time with your people–one of the main pillars of living a wholesome, grounded life in my opinion.
In the spirit of all things brunch, here are 12 lovely brunch recipes to add to your next brunch menu. This will be a meal your friends and family will absolutely love you for!
1. Ham & Gruyere Quiche
A quiche is a nice, fancy little addition to any brunch menu.
Ham and gruyere is a favourite of mine but if you want a healthier option I highly recommend a spinach quiche as well.
