This fresh and flavorful brunch strikes a nice balance between comforting and elegant. The ham and cheese strata anchors the meal (and is perfect to make ahead), while lemon scones with curd, a crisp green salad with cantaloupe, and strawberries in Marsala add a touch of spring.

Finish with rich chocolate panna cotta, because Mom deserves dessert with her brunch. Log in or sign up to swap meals and customize your plan. It’s free!
