I love holiday cooking! Here’s a handful of gluten-free recipes to bring the luck o’ the Irish and help you celebrate St. Patrick’s Day – and, no, you won’t find any green beer recipes here:

• Matcha Green Tea Pistachio Muffins
• Dill Onion Sandwich Bread
• Irish Soda Bread
• Irish Potato & Cabbage Soup

Make sure to get your greens in, too. Try one of these green smoothies to start the day off right:

• Pineapple Ginger Green Smoothie
• Spring Green Smoothie
• Basic Green Smoothie

Celebrate the day with your kids! Here are some fun ideas to get them involved:

• Green Carnations – this is a great science lesson for little ones
• Gold-Filled Rainbow Pots
• Thumbprint Leprechaun Bookmarks 

Much love,
Amy
