That's the default behaviour, just have

<xsl:template match="Para/Menu">
 <green>
 <xsl:apply-templates/>
 </green>
</xsl:text>

No, you don't want to do that. It's invalid as it stands,
but even if you added a select attribute for the for-each
it would not do what you want.

You just want to have a 

<xsl:apply-templates/>

This will apply templates to all the text and element node childeren in
order, the text will by default just appear and the menu nodes
will get surrounded by ,green> or whetver markup you want.
