To cook, toss with olive oil, salt and pepper, then pop in a 425 degree oven and roast for the suggested times on foodiecrush.com when you search for roasted vegetables.

  • This year, Mother's Day brunch at home is the new going out so in the words of Cher, I got you babe. Here's the plan: Send this spinach, artichoke heart and goat cheese quiche recipe to mom and the siblings, crank up the Zoom or Facetime, then make and eat them in your own kitchens together. Or, if your mom is in 'da house, pop some champs for mimosas, and surprise her with breakfast in bed or spend the lazy day cooking together. There's no doubt it will be different, but it's still possible to enjoy a celebratory brunch none of you will ever forget as the in-it-together-team you will always be.
