Deliciously Green on St. Patrick's Day☘️
Hello, Thriving With Health community!
St. Patrick's Day can be fun, simple, delicious and nutritious☘️ This year, we're going green in a whole new way – with a yummy, nutritious green juice recipe!
Our St. Patrick's Day Go Green Juice is a delightful blend of spinach, cucumber, celery, green apple, parsley, and a dash of fresh lime juice. Not only is it a refreshing way to start your day, but it's also packed with vitamins and minerals that will help you thrive.
Here's how to make it:
Ingredients:
- A handful of spinach
- 1 cucumber
- Several stalks of celery
- 1 cored green apple
- A handful of parsley
- Juice of 1 lime
Thoroughly wash all of the ingredients. Add the first five to your juicer, strain into a glass, add a splash or two of fresh lime juice and voila! You have a delicious, nutrient-packed Go Green juice to kickstart your St. Patrick's Day celebrations!☘️
But we're not stopping there. We've got a special tip for the kiddos. Let them make their own version of this green juice. They'll love being involved in the process and it's a great way to introduce them to the benefits of drinking green juice.
Speaking of benefits, did you know that green juice is a fantastic way to boost your immune system, improve digestion, and increase energy levels? Plus, it's a fun way to get your daily dose of veggies!
But why limit the green to just juice? This St. Patrick's Day, we encourage you to explore other healthy, plant-based green options. How about a crisp salad, a juicy pear, a sweet kiwi, creamy avocado, crunchy green bell peppers, or even some broccoli, peas, green beans, cabbage, or grapes?
St. Patrick's Day is also the perfect time to explore the refreshing and health-boosting benefits of green-infused water. Not only do these drinks look festive, but they also pack a nutritional punch!
Try cucumber and basil-infused water for a refreshing twist. Simply add sliced cucumbers and fresh basil leaves to a pitcher of water and let it infuse for a few hours. This combination is not only hydrating but also aids in digestion.
Parsley is another great herb to infuse your water with. Pair it with lime for a zesty kick. Parsley is known for its detoxifying properties, and lime adds a burst of vitamin C.
Remember, the key to a flavorful infused water is to let it sit for a few hours or overnight. This allows the flavors and nutrients from the fruits and herbs to seep into the water. So, this St. Patrick's Day, raise a glass to good health with these green-infused water recipes!
Another great opportunity to get the kids involved too! Why not turn the day into a fun, healthy, and educational experience? Let the little ones help prepare the green-infused water. They can use small cookie cutters to cut cucumbers, limes, or even apples into shamrock shapes. Not only will this make the water look festive, but it's also a great way to teach them about different fruits and vegetables. And why stop at infused water? You can also create a shamrock-shaped veggie and fruit platter. Let the kids arrange slices of green peppers, cucumbers, broccoli, green apples, and grapes into the shape of a shamrock. This is a fun and creative way to encourage them to eat their greens. Remember, the goal is to keep it simple, nutritious, and fun. So this St. Patrick's Day, let's make green the star of the show and celebrate with these fun and healthy ideas!
Eating and drinking green can be healthy, delicious, and nutritious without the need for harmful dyes or chemicals. This St. Patrick's Day, let's celebrate by enjoying food that loves us back!
Remember, going green isn't just about the color. It's about embracing a lifestyle that promotes health, wellness, and vitality. So, this St. Patrick's Day, let's raise a glass of green juice to a healthier, happier, and greener lifestyle. ☘️
Happy St. Patrick's Day from Thriving With Health!☘️

About Me
My passion about health started in my teens when I first hand saw the effects of how illness can wreck havoc in a family growing up with parents who had serious health issues. I too struggled with losing weight & developed an eating disorder that I was able to heal by educating myself on healthier habits. It’s amazing what our bodies can do when we learn to take care of them like God intended. These experiences & challenges fueled my passion to be a life long student in pursuit of learning how to create healthier lifestyles where one can thrive at their optimal best. As a mother of 3 children & a wife of a traveling husband, I quickly learned how to implement healthy habits on the go so that I could be my healthy best for my family. This has evolved into my health coaching business Thriving With Health where I coach people to integrate simple & fun healthy 'bites’ throughout their day even on their most busiest & challenging ones. You are never too busy to take care of your health & I can show you how. Everyone has busy lifestyles and living at their optimum best is not only doable but can be fun as well!
