Here’s another revived “daring pairing” that matches a home decor style with a coordinating recipe. Here’s to living in harmony!

Though St. Patrick’s Day has passed, the color green is here to stay for at least 6 or 7 more months. For me, green represents many things:

Springtime. Fresh cut grass. Mint. Healthy smoothies.

  • 1-1.5 large frozen banana (peel before freezing)
