St.
Patrick's Day is tomorrow and if you're like most people, you are probably trying
to come up with an interesting food item to bring to a party or potluck.
Green
food...not the easiest thing to think of. And yes, food coloring can pretty much
turn anything you make green. But will what you make still look appetizing once
you have turned it the color of the leprechaun?
Frosted green cupcakes
aside...when planning for a St. Paddy's Day event, keep the theme of the day in
mind and go green!

These Guacamole Cups are sure to be a hit.
Now, this recipe we found has you making your own guacamole and baking
your own wonton cups...but we are all about speed and convenience this late in
the game. The same success can be achieved by using a "scoop" type chip
and store bought guacamole.

Oh...come on...how cute are
these? And super easy to make. Basically all you need to do is make a tray of
brownies, mix green food coloring into some Cool Whip, layer and you are done.
Huge wow factor in no time at all.

Who says healthy
food can't be fun food that tastes good?
Not us. Use Kiwi, Green Grapes and Green Apple to create these All Green Fruit Skewers. You can even go the veggie route by using Bell Pepper, Zucchini
and Broccoli. Get yourself a little veggie dip on the side and you're friends
will be calling you Darby O'Gill in no time.

This Pea Soup recipe is like 2 ingredients total.
But for those of you who don't even want to think about making your own pea
soup, we think Campbell's and Progresso probably have a pretty good canned
version that you can pawn off as your own. And really...with this idea, it's more
about presentation anyways.

Now if you really want to
be the bell of the ball and you have about 2 to 3 hours to kill, this cake is a
must! And for dramatic effect...be sure to cut out a nice slice so that
everyone can see how gorgeously green this cake is!
So go on...make 'em all green with envy this St. Patrick's Day!
