Most moms know that when it comes to breakfast in bed on your special day, it's the thought that counts.

But if you have young kids who are still learning their way around the kitchen, your Mother's Day meal might not be what you had in mind (the look of pride and triumph on their faces makes it all worth it, though!). These recipes require minimal technique and mostly hands-off cooking time, making it easy for your kids to cook you a meal that you'll truly enjoy.

1. Sheet Pan Roasted Spring Veggies and Eggs

2. Savory Sheet Pan French Toast

This recipe was developed with budding young cooks in mind, so it includes plenty of steps that even your youngest kitchen helpers can lend a hand with.

3. Cheesy Purple Potato and Cabbage Hash

It might not be the kids' first choice for breakfast, but moms know that crispy purple potatoes and tender cabbage make for a beautiful and nutritious brunch.
