(Family Features) Dedicar tiempo a comer juntos puede tener un impacto positivo en el bienestar de las familias, incluidos los niños y adolescentes. De hecho, las comidas regulares en casa pueden ayudar a reducir el estrés y aumentar la autoestima, según una investigación publicada en “Canadian Family Physician”.

Las conversaciones a la hora de comer también son una oportunidad perfecta para conectarse con sus seres queridos. Un estudio publicado en “New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development” demostró que estas conversaciones ayudan a mejorar el vocabulario de los niños más que leerles en voz alta.

Sin embargo, hacer tiempo para comer juntos no debería requerir pasar toda la noche en la cocina. Un ingrediente fácil de preparar como los huevos puede ayudarle a pasar menos tiempo cocinando y más tiempo con la familia.

Por ejemplo, estas recetas saludables para el corazón de tostadas de huevo escalfado con salsa de aguacate y tomate, picadillo de camote con huevos y frittata poblana de la iniciativa Healthy for Good Eat Smart, respaldada a nivel nacional por Eggland’s Best, están listas en 15 minutos o menos. Incluyen una amplia variedad de verduras, frutas, cereales integrales y fuentes de proteínas saludables, recomendadas por la American Heart Association para ayudar a prevenir enfermedades cardíacas y accidentes cerebrovasculares.

  • aceite antiadherente en aerosol
  • 4          tortillas de maíz (6 pulgadas cada una)
  • 4          tazas de agua
  • 1          cucharada de vinagre de vino blanco
  • 4          huevos grandes

Salsa:

  • 1          aguacate mediano, cortado en cubitos
  • 1          Chile Anaheim o poblano mediano, sin semillas ni venas, cortado en cubitos
  • 1          tomatillo mediano, sin la cáscara, lavado y cortado en cubos
  • 1/2       tomate mediano, cortado en cubitos

  1. Precaliente el horno a 400 F. Cubra una bandeja para hornear con papel de aluminio. Rocíe ligeramente el papel de aluminio con aceite en aerosol antiadherente.
  2. Coloque las tortillas en una sola capa sobre papel de aluminio. Rocíe ligeramente las tortillas con aceite en aerosol antiadherente. Con un tenedor, pinche las tortillas para evitar que se llenen de aire. Hornee de 5 a 6 minutos por cada lado o hasta que estén doradas. Transfiera a platos para servir.
  3. En una sartén grande a fuego alto, hierva el agua y el vinagre.
  4. Una vez que el agua esté hirviendo, reduzca el fuego y cocine a fuego lento. Rompa el huevo en una taza y luego deslícelo con cuidado al agua hirviendo. Repita con los huevos restantes, evitando que los huevos se toquen en el agua. Cocine a fuego lento de 3 a 5 minutos, o hasta que las claras de huevo estén completamente cuajadas y las yemas comiencen a cuajar pero no estén duras. Con una espumadera, escurra los huevos. Coloque cada huevo sobre una tostada.
  5. Para hacer la salsa: En un tazón mediano, mezcle suavemente el aguacate, el pimiento, el tomatillo, el tomate, la cebolla morada, el cilantro, el jugo de limón, el ajo y la sal. Servir con las tostadas.

A beautifully arranged table set with plates, silverware, and candles. Perfect for formal dining or special occasions.

Want to make this Mother’s Day extra special? Skip the crowded restaurants and show Mom your love through a home-cooked meal she’ll never forget. We’ve crafted three foolproof recipes that even kitchen novices can master – because nothing says “I love you” quite like a meal made from the heart.

🌟 1. Heavenly Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with Berry Compote

Picture golden, cloud-like pancakes that practically float off the plate, their edges delicately crispy while their centers remain pillowy-soft and tender. The rich, creamy ricotta creates pockets of moisture that melt in your mouth, while bright lemon zest cuts through with citrusy sparkle. The warm berry compote cascades over the stack, its jewel-toned fruits bursting with sweet-tart juice that mingles perfectly with pure maple syrup.

🍳 2. Mediterranean Brunch Board

A feast for both eyes and palate, this stunning spread features eggs with golden yolks that ooze luxuriously when broken, their richness enhanced by aromatic dukkah’s nutty crunch. Creamy, house-made hummus swirled with extra virgin olive oil sits alongside prosciutto roses that fold like silk. Fresh figs, split to reveal their honey-sweet crimson centers, nestle against wedges of artisanal cheese that range from buttery-soft to crystalline-sharp. Every bite tells a story of Mediterranean sunshine.

👑 3. Herb-Crusted Salmon with Champagne Cream Sauce

A masterpiece of textures and flavors: the salmon’s herb crust offers a satisfying crackle before revealing the perfectly cooked, rose-pink flesh beneath that flakes at the mere touch of a fork. The champagne cream sauce, velvety and sophisticated, pools elegantly around the fish, its subtle bubbles lending an air of celebration. Bright green asparagus spears provide the perfect crisp-tender contrast, while the wild mushroom risotto, infused with earthy aromatics and finished with a generous shower of Parmesan, creates a bed of creamy comfort that ties the whole dish together.

Why These Recipes Work:

Each recipe can be partially prepped in advance

Ingredients are easily found in most supermarkets

They’re impressive without being overly complicated

Suitable for various dietary preferences

Each bite is carefully crafted to create not just a meal, but a memorable experience that shows Mom just how special she is. The interplay of textures and flavors in each dish creates a symphony of tastes that will linger in her memory long after the last bite.

Here are some Wine Pairings to make these dishes perfect:

🌟 Lemon Ricotta Pancakes

Perfect Pairing: Prosecco or Moscato d’Asti

Why it works: The light bubbles and subtle sweetness complement the citrus notes while cutting through the richness of the ricotta.

🍳 Mediterranean Brunch Board

Perfect Pairing: Rosé or Albariño

Why it works: A crisp, dry rosé enhances the salty prosciutto and creamy cheeses, while Albariño’s mineral notes complement the Mediterranean flavors.

👑 Herb-Crusted Salmon

Perfect Pairing: Chardonnay or Pinot Noir

Why it works: A lightly oaked Chardonnay matches the richness of the champagne sauce, while a light-bodied Pinot Noir works beautifully with the herb crust.

Plating Instructions:

Pro tip: Warm the plates before serving to keep everything at perfect temperature
