TIU Approved Sunday Brunch Favorites
By Durlan Vega onIs it just us or is Sunday the best day of the week? Sunday Funday, meal prep day, and of course...Sunday brunch! We love whipping up a special Sunday brunch, whether it’s just for us or if we have friends or family over. Since we have a little more time, we can get fancier with our smoothies or experiment with new protein pancake toppings!
We’re sharing some of our all-time favorite Sunday brunch recipes that are always a hit in our houses and with guests. They feel relaxed and decadent ~ like Sunday mornings ~ but of course they’re all TIU approved!
