Green Cooking Club

Happy Saint Patrick's Day! Since the March cooking club happened to fall on Saint Patrick's Day, we celebrated with the theme GREEN. Valerie, Summer and I were the hosts, and Nancy, Emily and Yumi were our guests.



We started things off with a green appetizer, Valerie's green goddess hummus cucumber bites! YUM!



The cocktail for the evening was a Shamrock Shaker, a tart tequila cocktail.



CHEERS!



Are you seeing green yet?



Cheers! Basically in heaven right now. Besties + matching outfits + tequila = Does it get better than this?



Summer made these super green salmon tacos with green onion and asparagus salsa.



With lime crema. Green is DELICIOUS.



Valerie made a coconut green soup with celery, kale and ginger. With crispy chickpeas on top! This was amazing!



Hello, sea of green deliciousness.



I made tilapia with a coconut-cilantro sauce, and served it on green dirty rice with tons of collard greens and leeks.



We ended the night with Summer's classic Irish Car Bomb cupcakes. Can't go wrong.



Some of the cooking club crew went uptown to a rock show after dinner!! I 49% wanted to join them, but the 51% of me that was tired and full won the battle. I'm sure they had a great time! Happy Saint Patrick's Day!
