Do you know any St.Pats day snacks that has NO sugar at all in it?

Answer 1

I dont think splenda, equal or sweet n low are good for kids, try recipes that substitute honey, juice or even applesauce for sugar instead.

This is a great book that will help, lots of recipes! You can always add "green" to the recipes & make them for St P's Day. See if your local library has the book or even your local B&N or Borders will have it:

by Susan Watson (Author), Loretta Trezzo (Illustrator)
******************************...

Other options are making sugar free cookies (with green cookie dough), sugar free puddings (lime/pistachio) & my fav is key lime yogurt (you can get it in sugar free). Green juice is fun, my son loves limeade.

Recipes:

Leprechaun Pudding

one 1-ounce box of sugar free instant
pistachio pudding for every five children
1/2 cup of milk per child
1 small, resealable plastic bag per child
1/2 cup measuring cup
1 spoon per child.

Put tablespoon of pudding mix in sandwich bag and milk, then close the baggy and have kids shake and squeeze, then eat.
******************************...

Shamrock Cookies

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 (3 ounce) package instant pistachio pudding mix
1 1/3 cups baking mix
1 egg
2 tablespoons honey

Cooking Instructions

2. Cream together the butter or margarine and the pudding mix. Blend in the baking mix, egg and honey and mix well.

1. In a large mixing bowl or punch bowl, stir together the limeade concentrate and the lime sherbet.

2. Add the lemon-lime beverage and the crushed ice and serve immediately.

Green Cupcakes

Ingredients

3/4 cup (175 mL) vegetable oil
3/4 cup (175 mL) honey
1 egg
2 tsp. (10 mL) white vinegar
1 tsp. (5 mL) vanilla
1/2 tsp. (2 mL) liquid green food colouring
1-1/4 cup (300 mL) all purpose flour
1/2 tsp. (2 mL) baking soda
1/2 cup (125 mL) buttermilk

Icing
1/2 cup (125 mL) butter, softened
2 cups (500 mL) sugar free icing sugar
1 tsp. (5 mL) vanilla
2 tbsp. (30 mL) milk or cream
green food colouring (preferably paste type)
additional sugar free candies or nuts

Cooking Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350° F (180° C). Place 10 paper liners into the cups of a muffin pan.

2. In a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer, beat together the oil, honey, egg, vinegar, vanilla and green food colouring until combined.

3. In a smaller bowl, stir together the flour and baking soda. Add to the egg mixture, in two or three additions alternately with the buttermilk, beating well after each.

4. Spoon the batter into the 10 paper liners, dividing the batter evenly among them.

5. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick poked into the middle of a cupcake comes out clean. Remove from pan and let cool thoroughly.

6. Meanwhile, make the icing. In a medium bowl with an electric mixer, beat the butter until creamy. Add the icing sugar gradually, in 3 or 4 additions, beating very well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla. Add the milk or cream, 1 tbsp. (15 mL) at a time, beating well, until the icing is creamy and spreadable -- the more you beat this, the better it will be. Add the food colouring, beating it in gradually until the icing is tinted the way you like it.

7. Decorate cupcakes with sugar free green sprinkles or SF coloured sugar, shamrocks made out of gummy candies -- or whatever else your little leprechaun can think of.

Good luck!

Answer 2

Irish Potato Farls

INGREDIENTS
4 medium potatoes, peeled and halved
1 pinch salt
1/4 cup all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
1 tablespoon melted butter
DIRECTIONS
In a pot, cover potatoes with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Simmer on medium-high heat until the center of the potatoes are tender when pricked with a fork, about 20 minutes. Turn off heat. Drain, return potatoes to pot and allow to completely dry out over remaining heat. Mash with a potato masher until smooth.
Place warm mashed potato in medium bowl. Stir in flour, salt and melted butter. Mix lightly until dough forms.
On a well floured surface, knead the dough lightly. The dough will be sticky. Use a floured rolling pin to flatten into a 9 inch circle about 1/4 inch thick. Cut into quarters using a floured knife.
Sprinkle a little flour into the base of the skillet and cook the farls for 3 minutes on each side or until evenly browned. Season with a little salt and serve straight away.

St. Patrick's Coffee Cake
Healthy Holiday Recipe

Ingredients:
1-1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 cup warm water (105 to 115 degrees)
2 to 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons powdered milk
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
2 tablespoons butter, softened

For the Filling and Topping
1/2 cup shelled pistachios
1/3 cup almond paste
2 drops green food coloring
1 tablespoon butter, melted
2 tablespooons granulated sugar

Directions:
Dissolve yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar in warm water. Let stand until foamy, 5 to 10 minutes. Mix together flour, powdered milk, remaining sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
Stir egg and butter into yeast mixture. At low speed, beat flour mixture into yeast mixture, 1/2 cup at a time, until a dough forms.
On a floured surface, knead dough until smooth and elastic, 5 to 10 minutes, adding more flour to prevent sticking. Place in a large greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover loosely with a damp cloth; let rise in a warm place until doubled, 45 to 60 minutes.
To prepare filling, in a blender or food processor fitted with the metal blade, process nuts, almond paste, and food coloring until coarsely ground.
Spray a 10-inch tube pan or an angel food cake pan with vegetable cooking spray. Punch down dough. On a floured surface, using a floured rolling pin, roll into a 17 x 9-inch rectangle. Sprinkle filling over dough to within 2 inches of edges. Brush edges with water.
Starting with a long side, roll up dough, jelly-roll style. Pinch edges to seal. Fit dough into prepared pan. Cover again; let rise in a warm place until almost doubled, 45 minutes.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. For topping, brush top of dough with melted butter. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake cake until golden and top sounds hollow when tapped, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool slightly. Turn cake out onto rack to cool completely.
