[…] One of my favorite places to get recipe ideas is the blog Oh So Delicioso. They have several recipes for St. Patrick’s Day but by my favorite is the Neon Green Punch since I have small children that love the color! Electric green is a head turner and since it’s not too sweet I don’t have to worry about giving a second glass to my kids. Another one of my favorite sites for recipes is Weelicious as well (you can see the natural green recipes here). […]
I LOVE LOVE LOVE to see others joining to the fight against food dyes. Our children have, unfortunately, gotten used to the idea that brightly colored foods are fun so it’s always refreshing to see there are natural options!
