St. Patrick’s Day calls for green. Green shirts, green rivers, green beer and green eggs and ham. Last year I made this luscious homemade creme de minth. But this year I’m sticking to the healthy-side of the green holiday with a super nutritious avocado breakfast parfait.

Sweetened spinach and avocado yogurt layered with fresh fruit and topped with almond and date granola. كازينو عبر الانترنت Delicious and filling! It’s a great way to get your leafy greens and healthy fats in at one time. Avocado and almonds, while both calorie heavy, are super important for energy, keeping our skin healthy and for proper functioning nerves and brain.

Do green the right way with this Fat and Happy Breakfast Parfait.
