The key to anyone's heart is in their stomach, after all. And we think the easiest way to win anyone over is to start your Valentine's Day off on a sweet note with pancakes, waffles, or French toast. And we're not talking just any basic ol' recipes or boxed mixes. Our recipes for Hong Kong French toast, chicken and waffles, and buckwheat pancakes all scream "fanciest breakfast in bed ever," yet take so little effort.

This recipe for the easiest quiche ever, coupled with homemade cinnamon rolls and a round of strawberry shortcake mimosas, of course.
