Garlic Hash Browns with Kale

Garlic Hash Browns With Kale by Forks Over Knives

Who said brunch had to be unhealthy? For the plant-based mom in your life, opt for this garlic hash brown and kale recipe.

Cheesy Sausage Egg Dish by Gold Medal Bakery

This savory dish is cheesy, warm and loaded with sausage, making it a hearty addition to any brunch. However, feel free to add some peppers, onions, or other veggies to this dish for a lighter option. Set aside a good two hours for preparing and baking this eggy dish, and keep in mind this recipe serves six people. Thus, if you plan on fewer people attending brunch, halve measurements and adjust times accordingly.
