One of the best excuses to drink green beer in the middle of the day is quickly approaching and I've got 17 Fun Green Recipes to help you celebrate! St. Patrick's Day is basically the first big holiday before all the beautiful spring weather comes, and I love that it's an excuse to eat a whole bunch of finger food and pig out on pub grub.

That said, not all St Patrick's Day recipes are desserts or alcoholic beverages – some can be healthier like the Salsa Verde Chicken and Green Goddess Grilled Cheese Sandwiches you'll see below. If you just want an excuse to eat or drink something green this St Paddy's Day, you don't have to settle for salad or green food colouring in your beer. There are so many ways to get creative and whip up something delicious to celebrate!

Traditionally, when you think of Irish food you may think of cabbage rolls, anything with potatoes and corned beef. Cabbage was enjoyed with bacon during the potato famine because corned beef was more expensive in Ireland at the time – back in the U.S. it was much cheaper so it was often eaten as a special treat on St Paddy's Day. If you're looking for that traditional Irish dinner, this Slow Cooker Corned Beef dinner will be right up your alley!

Typically I eat these Irish Nachos pictured below. They're made with either sliced potatoes or you can use frozen potato wedges as I do and load them up with bacon and your other fave nacho toppings. They're super filling and fun way to enjoy St Patrick's Day without consuming a thousand calories. Hey, you can even top your Irish nachos with corned beef if you so desire. Go wild!

No matter how you choose to celebrate, this collection of green dinners, desserts, drinks and snacks are perfect for the occasion – let me know what you're going to make!!!
