The Ultimate Breakfast In Bed Setup
April 27, 2026
This post is all about breakfast in bed. I recently got a new mattress (this one), and I’m genuinely obsessed. It’s a huge upgrade from my old one, and I’ve been looking for any excuse to stay in bed a little longer.
To celebrate, I made one of my favorite breakfast recipes: Hot Honey Chicken Croissant Brunch Sandwiches. And honestly, I could eat these all day. Give me a flaky croissant and I’m happy. It felt like the perfect way to celebrate my new bed.
First of all, here are the bed details because I had to share. I got the Helix Dusk Luxe Mattress and truly wish I had upgraded sooner. It has that perfect in-between feel where it’s soft and plush on top but still super supportive underneath. Think five-star hotel comfort, but made for everyday life at home.
It features a quilted pillow top, zoned lumbar support, individually wrapped coils, and a breathable TENCEL cover that helps keep you cool while you sleep. Basically… I climb into bed and suddenly have zero interest in being productive.

Now to celebrate. I loaded up a tray of the most tasty breakfast items and enjoyed a mini brunch on my new matteress all covered in pink. Pastries, donuts, and fresh berries, paired with the croissant sandwich. Check out the recipe below it’s worth it.
To celebrate, I loaded up a tray with some of my favorite breakfast treats and turned my new mattress into a mini brunch spot. Pastries, donuts, fresh berries, and a croissant sandwich all served on a bed covered in pink sheets. (Surprise, surprise!)
And that croissant sandwich was definitely the star of the tray. Check out the recipe below because it’s absolutely worth making.
Hot Honey Chicken Croissant Brunch Sandwiches
Ingredients
- 4 large bakery-style croissants
- 8 pre-cooked fried chicken tenders or strips
- 6 large eggs, beaten
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 4 slices cheddar or American cheese
- 8 slices thick-cut bacon, cooked
- 4 tablespoons hot honey, divided
- 5 tablespoons butter, divided
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium-low heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Pour in the beaten eggs and season with salt and pepper. Let the eggs cook undisturbed until a thin layer forms.
- Using a spatula, fold one side of the eggs toward the center, then fold again to create a thick rectangle. Continue cooking until the eggs are fully set, then remove from the pan and cut into 4 equal portions.
- While the eggs cook, slice each croissant in half.
- In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter with 3 tablespoons of the hot honey for 30 to 45 seconds. Stir until combined. Brush the inside tops and bottoms of each croissant with the hot honey butter mixture.
- Heat the chicken tenders according to package directions if needed.
- Layer each croissant bottom with 2 chicken tenders, a drizzle of the remaining hot honey, one portion of folded eggs, one slice of cheese, and 2 slices of bacon.
- Place the croissant tops on top and serve warm.
