On Saint Patrick’s Day, I don’t just wear green…I also eat green! Mostly for health, but also because it’s so much fun to celebrate holidays!
Have you ever noticed that the food surrounding fun holidays is usually full of sugar, carbs, and fat? I have. Definitely not great for weight loss, am I right?
That’s why I compiled some of my favorite IdealShape recipes that are perfect for Saint Patrick’s Day green festivities. Try them out and let me know what you think in the comments!
