Happy St. Patrick's Day!  Will you be celebrating with corned beef and cabbage for dinner tonight?  Here are a few fun (and healthy) recipes to help you celebrate St. Patrick's Day with your kids!

Healthy Snacks:

  • Green Smoothies - Love green smoothies?  Spinach and kale can give your smoothie a green hue!  Try adding bananas and mango for a sweet flavor.  Just be sure to brush after - although healthy, fruit can be high in sugar.
  • Green Rice - Flavor your brown rice with fresh cilantro, peas and cumin.  This is a great way to add a flavorful, but festive dish to your dinner tonight!
  • Cucumber Feta Rolls - Slice cucumber thinly and add protein-rich Greek yogurt, feta, sun-dried tomato and olives!
  • Kale Chips - Not only is this snack green, they are a healthy alternative to regular potato chips!
