Start off Valentine’s Day with a delicious recipe for breakfast in bed, thanks to culinary cutie Aida Mollenkamp.
All too often, people spend so much time planning a romantic Valentine’s dinner, they forget that Valentine’s Day starts in the morning, and that calls for a special breakfast too.
Just picture this scene: you’re laying there in bed, it’s Valentine’s Day. You’re not expecting much of a nice lazy Saturday, when all of a sudden you start smelling delicious smells out of the kitchen. You drift back to sleep to wake up to the smell of baking French toast and fresh-brewed coffee. Then that special someone walks through the bedroom door with a plateful of these delicious treats, a steaming mug of hot coffee, and a nice tall glass of cold orange juice. Is your mouth watering too? Ours sure is.
If you don’t have any cardamom, go out and get some now! We’ll wait. It is totally worth the trip, and it will make or break this entire recipe. Other than that, you can tweak this recipe to suit your personal taste, but the blend of the orange flavor with cardamom will absolutely wow your taste buds.
Plus, honeyed strawberries. Yes, honeyed strawberries – it’s sweet on sweet on sweet, and if that wasn’t enough, Aida adds fresh vanilla. It’s a simple idea, it is a great visual accompaniment to a single rose (hint hint) on a tray, and it’s a wonderful way to get your Valentine’s Day started on the right foot.
