New Year’s Brunch Ideas
With things a little more laid back, toned down and at-home this New Year’s Day, you can choose from 28 bowl games starting at 12:00 p.m. ESPN breaks down all 28 games including storylines, key players to keep your eye on and odds-on favorites.
If you’ve had enough TV watching, you could start writing out your goals for 2021, and if you need a prompt, start with five things you want to leave behind in 2020, and the five things you want to take with you in the New Year. And to make sure the day is extra special, plan now for a brunch that’ll make New Year’s memorable for more than one reason!
Ree Drummond’s Cinnamon French Toast
You’ll have your pick of French toast options with this quick and easy Cinnamon French Toast recipe that serves 12 hungry guests from the Food Network’s The Pioneer Woman. With plenty of brown sugar, cinnamon, and freshly grated nutmeg, Ree Drummond whips up a culinary oven-baked concoction that’s drizzled with warm maple syrup and lots of butter!
Guy Fieri’s Meatier Brunch
Leave it to Guy Fieri, host of Guy’s Big Bite to bring the “Greatest Biscuit of all Time” to brunch. His Savory Meat Roll is packed with pesto, Asiago cheese and lots of country sausage. Add, these Lemon Ricotta Pancakes With Brown Butter, stacked to perfection and packed with stone fruit compote and amaretto syrup. We’ll take a serving of each.
Giada’s Chocolate-Themed Brunch
Giada De Laurentiis, the slim celebrity chef who looks like she never eats her own creations, wows her guests with a sweet, savory and slightly boozy menu of Spicy Bacon Bites, Chocolate-Hazelnut Cheesecake French Toast, Spiked Chocolate and Coffee Milkshakes. These recipes are from Giada Entertains so almost all of them have accompanying video how-tos to help you perfect your New Year’s brunch!
Best Brunch Recipes from Martha Stewart
Martha Stewart has been making holiday brunches for years and from this collection of 65 best brunch recipes we pulled out her Sausage and Swiss Chard Strata, Cinnamon-Streusel Coffee Cake, Bacon and Egg Toast Cups and Frozen Cranberry-Rose Vodka to feature. But you can pick your own favorites, from her collection of Martha-tested and approved recipes (there really is something for every palate here – including Banana-Nut French Toast, Smoked Salmon Frittatas and even a Goat Cheese Quiche with Hash-Brown Crust!)
Pastry Pie for Brunch
Using phyllo dough, eggs, mushroom, tomatoes, Kalamata olives, fresh basil, thyme, oregano and feta cheese, this vegetarian option from the Food Network Magazine will serve about eight guests. But that’s if nobody wants seconds! It’s the perfect brunch pie, but we’d make two, since it’s an award-winning recipe from chef Celia Wallis!
Happy New Year from Colliers Hill!
The choices in the master-planned community of Colliers Hill for homebuyers have multiplied! From the paired offerings built by KB Home, to the Seasons product from Richmond American Homes and multiple floor plan choices from Century Communities – there are LOTS of options!
