Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Today, I am sharing with you some “green” breakfast recipes. An easy way to increase the nutritional value of your daily diet and improve your health is to add vegetables, specifically green vegetables, to each meal. Vegetables are full of vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients and fiber. Unless you’re having eggs in the morning, breakfast can be the most challenging to get in your veggies. Here are a few breakfast ideas to get you going!!
