When is a holiday not actually a holiday? Well, when it\u2019s St. Patrick\u2019s Day! It\u2019s not quite an official U.S.\u00a0 Holiday, but we certainly celebrate it as it’s the most celebrated non-government holiday in our country! If you didn’t already know, St. Patrick’s Day is a day of green! \u00a0Everybody tries to wear at least a splash of green and many get together with friends for a party or head out to the St. Patrick’s Day parades!<\/p>\n

I’ve got some great recipes you can make at home to celebrate and bring out the fun in St. Patrick\u2019s Day!<\/p>\n

First let\u2019s start with food! My favorite thing to talk about, of course! Let\u2019s be festive enough to bring out those green colors into our foods this St. Patrick\u2019s Day!<\/p>\n

For the main dish how about starting off with a yummy green creamy pesto pasta<\/a> with a twist! To liven up add some tasty pistachios! Small touches like pistachios add extra green on St. Patrick’s Day.<\/p>\n

Accompany with the awesome pesto pasta how about an herb and cheese scone<\/a>.\u00a0My mouth is watering just thinking about it! It\u2019s an awesome pair with your St. Patrick’s Day pasta. Also, it’s Irish! The herb and cheese scone is one thing people in Ireland love to eat with their meal, plus the herbs brings out the color green for the St. Patrick’s Day theme we are going for!<\/p>\n

For a tasty green drink, try skipping the green food coloring and go for a green healthy drink instead! Try a Kiwi Fruit beverage!\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Have<\/p>\n

And remember, take the St. Patrick’s Day theme literally and make sure to serve your meal as green as possible with biodegradable utensils and plates.<\/p>\n
