Love Mom but you’re not much of a cook? The PCC Deli and Bakery are at your service. Visit us and pull together a tempting, fresh Mother’s Day brunch, lunch or picnic with ease. Here are some simple menu ideas to get you started.

If she’s a brunch fan — Serve up her favorite PCC quiche (order ahead at the Deli; choose from ham and spinach, the traditional Lorraine, or broccoli and cheddar). On the side, consider our Greek Salad, Hearty Greens Caesar Salad or Asparagus Orzo Salad. If it’s chilly, add her favorite PCC soup. And for dessert, a smooth PCC Pear Cream Pie or her favorite fresh fruit are just the ticket.

If she likes Asian-inspired flavors — Start with PCC Thai-glazed Salmon or Steph’s Tofu. Add our perennial favorite Asian Capellini Salad along with a starch (we like our slightly spicy Sesame Quinoa Edamame Salad or citrusy PCC Indonesian Rice). For dessert? Slices of our decadent Coconut Custard Cake.

If she loves picnics — Whether they’re indoors or outdoors, take home one of our free-range roasted chickens or baked chicken pieces. That’ll go splendidly with our vibrant PCC Emerald City Salad or rich and creamy PCC Collard Slaw. Round out lunch with our California Potato Salad, and for dessert: PCC Strawberry Rhubarb Pie.
