SANTA PAULA, CA - Mother’s Day is closer to hours than days away, and Limoneira sees the opportunity in the time remaining to ensure that lemons are on the mind.
Company spokesperson and Founder of Healthy Grocery Girl®, Megan Roosevelt, teamed up with MomsLA founders Yvonne Condes and Sarah Auerswald to create an all-day lemon-inspired menu to spoil moms.

So what is MomsLA?
“MomsLA is super practical information for parents in Los Angeles,” Sarah explained as the three began to show off the meal ideas to spoil mom and, hopefully, inspire her the rest of the year.
“Although Mother’s Day is only one day a year, lemons are available to us all year long and Sarah and Yvonne were sweet enough to bring along some lemon-y treats to share with us,” Megan said.
From breakfast in bed, to a meal she doesn’t have to make, here is what Limoneira offers to feed moms on their special day:
Breakfast in Bed: Brown-Sugar Lemon Mascarpone Muffins
This breakfast pastry yields 12 to 16 muffins, so while mom doesn’t have to share, she definitely can. Using four whole lemons among its ingredient, they only take 15 to 17 minutes to bake, so you can still catch some Z’s before the morning surprise. For the recipe, click here.
Lemon-y Lunch: Grilled Lemon Chicken Salad
This zesty midday meal is something you’ll want to prep in advance, with the recipe calling to marinate the chicken overnight in the fridge. But having it prepared beforehand means more time to spoil moms anyway! For the recipe, click here.
Night In Dinner: Creamy Lemon Pasta
Finish off her day of not having to cook with a healthy, tasty pasta incorporating a pound of asparagus and, of course, two or three lemons. It’ll end the night on a high note and may even add to her bag of recipes throughout the rest of the year. For the recipe, click here.
Limoneira added that it has long asserted that lemons are one of the most versatile fruits.
“This spring, we also want to put our money where our mouths are and bring you some great tips for how to make this year’s celebrations just a little bit zestier,” the company said in a press release.
