So, the eggs aren't really green. Instead they're packed with good-for-you greens. Maybe they're not the green eggs Dr. Seuss wrote about in the all-time classic Green Eggs & Ham. Still, they count in my book. Before Nate was born, we started buying books for him. Dr. Seuss was one of the first authors we
