When I’m asked what my favorite meal is, I’m always debating between breakfast, lunch, and dinner. However, the truth is that none of these mealtimes is the correct answer. Brunch is quite easily my favorite meal of any day of the week. You can mix savory with sweet and even enjoy a mimosa before noon!
