A Green'en St. Patrick's Day

 

When planning get- togethers and parties, we all have our favorite “not healthy” fun food we like to eat!  So, go ahead and make or purchase that fun food.  But did you know that there are some really powerful players when it comes to nutritional values that are decked out in “green”?

Serve up some of these powerhouse dishes this festive St. Patrick’s Day…

Spinach, Leek and Potato Soup

Garlic Roasted Kale

Of course don’t forget to make Irish Soda Bread!!

Did you know…

Leeks—have 30% of daily value for Vitamin A

Spinach—known for its high antioxidant values

Kale—1 cup cooked has about 30% daily value for calcium

Will your St. Patrick’s Day party include kids??

Try out these game tips!

Musical Chairs—to the tunes of Irish music

Treasure Hunt—Give clues for children to find the hidden “pot of gold” (gold foil-wrapped chocolate coins) or whatever you would like to put in the pot!

 

Party favors (thank you notes) for adults—

Type out Irish proverbs and blessings on strips of paper and attach them to favor cups.  Or send your guests a thank-you, e-card with an Irish quote or blessing on it.  (Similar to fortune cookies!)

Here is an Irish proverb I recently ran across and liked…

“May you have the hindsight to know where you’ve been

the foresight to know where you’re going

and the insight to know when you’re going too far.

 

Have a wonderful St. Patrick’s Day!
