Everyone knows it is a tradition to go green on Saint Patrick’s Day.  From green apparel to makeup to beverages, it’s all on the table.  And it’s for good reason too!  Legend has it that those who aren’t in color, become subject to the leprechaun’s pinch!  But, if green isn’t in your wardrobe this year, at least we can help get it in your meal planning. We have a long list of green food goodies that will keep you in the festive spirit.

Nutritionally, dark green leafy vegetables such as salad greens and spinach have a lot to offer in exchange for very few calories.  They’re nutrient-dense and a good source of fiber which supports bowel health, diabetes, and weight management.  They are an excellent source of several vitamins including A, C, E and K plus folate, which offers cancer-protective benefits.  Top them off with an antioxidant profile that has also been proven to decrease the risk of heart disease and there’s plenty of reason to include them in your diet every day. 

Dark green veggies include broccoli, Bok choy, collards, kale, arugula, and romaine.  It’s recommended that most adults get between 2-4 cups of vegetables each day including a combination of greens, legumes, starchy and red or orange vegetables.
