To show my holiday spirit on St. Patrick's Day, here are a few of my favorite and not so favorite green things:
Cody & Lexi wearing GREEN bandanas to show their holiday spirit! (a favorite)
GREEN Bagels, NOT a favorite. Bagels are not on the Red Carpet Ready plan when they are NOT green, so adding the food coloring just doesn't help!
Show your St. Patrick's Day spirit by taking your Valslides (they're GREEN and a total favorite) to the gym with you!
GREEN Eggs & No Ham - delicious and Red Carpet Ready. How could this not be a favorite?
GREEN Beer, NOT a favorite and NOT great if you want to look Red Carpet Ready
The Luck of The Irish Tropical GREEN Smoothie. Nutritious, delicious, GREEN & a favorite!
I've listed below the recipes for the Green Eggs and the Green Smoothie, enjoy!
Green Eggs & No Ham (serves 1)
Ingredients:
1-3 egg whites OR 1/2 cup Eggology liquid egg whites
1 green onion (chopped) including the green part but reserve the green part for topping
3 cooked asparagus spears (I used grilled asparagus from a left over dinner, but you could easily microwave 3 spears in about 30 seconds)
A bit of cheese (I used about 2 tsps of goat cheese but any or none will do)
Directions:
Spray skillet with Pam cooking spray and heat to med-high.
Add green onions and cook until it begins to wild (1-2 minutes).
Meanwhile, whisk egg whites with a teaspoon of water and salt & pepper.
Add the chopped asparagus spears and give a bit of a stir.
Add the egg whites and turn heat to low.
Gently stir your mixture and add the cheese.
Cook for about 2 minutes.
Top with green part of the green onion.
*Serve with fruit or 1 piece of Ezekial toast

Ingredients:
2 big handfuls of raw spinach
1 mango
1 banana
1 cup of water
Some ice cubes
