We also made Sunflower Seed Butter Cookies and are hoping they'll turn nice and green by tomorrow. In trying to come up with other green foods, we came across http://www.cookingwithcolor.com/green_foods/ and these yummies: http://blog.wholefoodsmarket.com/2010/03/are-you-eating-something-green/. And for anyone wanting to make St. Patrick's Day about more than wearing green and pinching people, here's what we're celebrating http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Patrick.
