I tell myself I’m not a brunch person. But what are branches?And since I’m definitely a late breakfast person, I morning brunch people. But especially on holidays, brunch sets the stage for the main meal that comes later.
My approach to branches is simple. Keep it light and don’t fill it up with something to eat later.For Easter, I know I don’t eat eggs for breakfast because I eat deviled eggs later. I know I eat ham, so I’m not going to eat bacon.
This is my Easter brunch. Berries dressed to perfection and potatoes with airfryer cooked spinach. With minimal mess and ingredients, it’s all done in under 20 minutes and completely unpretentious. But for Easter, it’s the perfect amount to satisfy my appetite and keep me feeling good until the main event.
Whatever you make for breakfast or brunch this Easter Sunday, take a break and keep it simple.
