Our mother’s mean the world to us and there is not a more perfect way to show that love then by making a special breakfast for them. It’s become somewhat of a tradition in America to make Mom breakfast on Mother’s Day. If your looking for a cute simple breakfast that is sure to make her feel loved then here you go. They look so simple, but when mom bites into these she is going to get a mouthful of heavenly light and flavorful tasting eggs. The perfect side could be a simple bowl of strawberries drizzled with honey and some buttery croissants (just don’t forget moms coffee!)
A perfect breakfast to start Mom’s day or start to any morning. They remove very easily from the pan if you make sure to heavily brush with melted butter. The cottage cheese really helps keep these light and fluffy, while the green chilies add that nice flavor you were not expecting. Like I always say “Everything is better with cheddar!” These mini eggs are little, but never underestimate the power of little things.
P.S. If looking for that Mother’s Day craft or card to do with your little ones here is the perfect idea to make your Mom “Happy Cry!” Thoughtful Mothers Day Gift
P.P.S. Refrigerate any leftovers they actually taste great reheated the next morning!
