Why is Mother's Day always about dainty food?

This hearty Mother's Day dinner is as beautiful as it is delicious. Because while moms may like pretty things, it doesn't mean they don't also want a dinner that leaves them satisfied. To round out this recipe and make it a meal, a quick salad or some green beans and rice pilaf would be perfect.
