Don't Forget Your Green

Written by Ocean Mist Farms. | March 17, 2021

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! We love any reason to incorporate more greens on the menu. Whether you’re hosting with green dips or toasting with green beer, we’re sharing our favorite ways to get your greens in this St. Patrick’s Day. 

Broccoli Tots 

All of the tot...none of the tater. Made in a pinch with our OMF Season & Steam broccoli, these deliciously green tots are soft on the inside with the perfect oven roasted crisp on the outside. Pair them with a trio of your favorite dipping sauces like sriracha ranch or beer cheese for a guilt-free appetizer that goes even quicker than it’s made! 

Artichoke "Guacamole" 

You're in luck! Our Ocean Mist Farms Artichoke “Guacamole” is loaded with healthy greens and undoubtedly makes the perfect dip for your St. Patty’s Day snack array. This creamy, vegetarian dip requires just six simple ingredients and is loaded with fiber and antioxidants. Serve it with tender artichoke leaves and crackers or add a heavy spoonful to your loaded nachos. If you want to kick up the heat, we recommend adding fresh diced jalapenos or canned green chilis. The greener...the better!

Lime-Coconut Artichoke Ice Pops 

Sneak your greens in with this refreshing spring treat. Lime-Coconut Artichoke Ice Pops are creamy, sweet and seriously delicious! With the combination of steamed artichoke, sweetened condensed milk, and fresh lime juice, here comes a creative and nutritious twist on a tasty dessert. Nobody will ever know they’re eating something healthy and getting their greens in! 

How will you be eating green this St. Patrick’s Day?
