Mother’s Day Brunch with Simply Orange. Mother’s Day is one of my favorite holidays. I love being able to share my special day with my own mom, my sister, and all of our children. We typically try to celebrate a little earlier than the holiday with a nice brunch at my house. This year because of travel and work schedules, we hosted it even earlier than normal. By celebrating our holiday a little earlier, we are able to spend our special day doing what we love best. My mom loves to kayak, my sister loves to go to the beach, and I love to go to Disney!
Before I could host my family for Brunch, I needed to decide on a menu we would all enjoy. To make my own life a little easier, I created a menu that could be easily made, and even pre-made. Then, I went to Whole Foods to get everything on my list and more! Our menu was simple, but delicious. I wanted to serve a variety of fresh fruits, tasty waffles, and mouthwatering mini donuts. Of course, you can’t have brunch without orange juice, and there is no better orange juice than Simply Orange. While I was at Whole Foods, I saw Simply Peach Juice, and a few bottles of that made their way into the cart, along with Simply Orange Juice, cake mix, eggs, fresh fruit, fresh flowers, and more. I love shopping at Whole Foods because I know I can count on them to provide me with the best quality foods to feed my family. I love Simply Juices and Juice drinks for the same reason. They are known for never using juice from concentrate or frozen, with no additional sweeteners preservatives, colors, or flavors. Simply Juices works hand in hand with their growers to ensure that all of their products are naturally delicious. because of their commitment to quality, Simply Juices sources their fruit from around the world year round. The oranges that go into each bottle of Simply Orange are carefully picked (many times by hand) at their peak ripeness. You can find Simply Orange at your local Whole Foods {find your store here}; and for a limited time {May 2-May 15, 2018}, you can save $0.50 on Simply Orange Juice at Whole Foods!

Recipe Notes
Optional, make a Simply Peach glaze with Simply Peach instead of Simply Orange.
Before everyone arrived, I whipped up a batch of waffle mix and pre-made a few for the kiddos that couldn’t stand to wait any longer for food. I poured the rest of the mix into a squeeze bottle and let the guests create their own waffle creations with batter and fresh fruits. It was a fun way to have everyone interacting, and I didn’t have to do all of the cooking!
I set up the table with a large bowl of ice and a bottle of Simply Orange and Simply Peach in it. Small juice glasses were placed on the table next to plates and napkins. Large farmhouse style candlesticks with crisp candles were placed next to the ice bowl. In the center of the table, I had a rustic three tiered tray with fresh oranges, and strawberries. I filled small glass cups with mixed fresh berries to snack on, or add to waffles, and placed them in front of the tiered tray. Fresh flowers filled glass jars, mini donuts were stacked on a simple white cake plate. Pre-made waffles were placed on a smaller cake plate in front of the mini donuts.
Our brunch was easy, delicious, and so much fun!
