Eating of the Green must mean you will be very fortunate (and healthy) all year long!
This week we are celebrating Donna Hay recipes that are green or feature or use green-hued ingredients.
There are plenty of gorgeously green foods to choose from so pick your favorite and post it by Sunday, March 16th.
Please remember to link a thumbnail image of your dish and don't forget leave a comment after you link so that we don't miss out on your post.

***The Votes Are In!***
As you can see from the poll on the side bar, popular U.K. cook and author Nigel Slater has been selected as our next IHCC chef starting March 31st! (Themes for the first 5 weeks are on the sidebar!)

His website sums up his cooking style so well, we had to share it:
Author, columnist, diarist and
broadcaster, he remains very much an amateur cook. Nigel is not a chef
and has no restaurant or commercial connections. His food is
understated, handcrafted home cooking that is easy to accomplish and
without a trace of what he affectionately calls 'celebrity cheffery'. He
is not fond of fussy food and prefers simple suppers made with care and
thought. He believes that making something good to eat for your self or
for others can lift the spirits in the way little else can.
"There is something quietly civilizing about sharing a meal with other people. The simple act of making someone something to eat, even a bowl of soup or a loaf of bread, has a many-layered meaning. It suggests an act of protection and caring, of generosity and intimacy. It is in itself a sign of respect."

Happy Cooking!

A pretty Green Pea & Basil Soup (the mint pesto on the accompanying crackers will post later this week). ;-)
Quick and easy grain salad with lots of greenery!
And the green continues with Mint Pesto (in pasta & on crackers...)
;-)
So...hey there, long lost IHCC friends. I've gotten my act together and am back with Donna Hay! Crab Bruschetta was light, summery, and delicious!
Made a simple and nice salad!
Just bought myself The Kitchen Diaries I and II, at a bargain! Could not wait to try out the recipes!
Welcome back, Michelle!
Hmmm...I have no Nigel Slater cookbooks! Obviously the addition of more cookbooks to my collection is entirely your fault!
Also, there is some green on the table behind my decidedly not green butternut squash.
