I’m sure we’ve all heard the story of Green Eggs and Ham, right? These green eggs are healthier than the green eggs you might be seeing for St. Patrick’s Day like I have.
Lately I’ve been seeing way too many pictures of green food coloring scrambled eggs floating around the internet. In all honesty, they look disgusting and who really needs more green dye in our bodies?
We have so many healthy and vibrantly green veggies that can do the job for us so let’s make our own trendy green eggs without the junk.
