It doesn't matter whether you're Irish - St. Patrick's Day is a fun time to celebrate the foods and ingredients of another culture. If we can't be among the rolling green hills of Ireland, we might as well attempt to re-create the celebratory atmosphere of its most festive pubs, right? We're not just talking taters here - we love the traditional corned beef, soda bread, and more, but sometimes we need to branch out from the norm.
We've collected our favorite traditional and not-so-traditional recipes that celebrate the rich and delicious culture of the fair country of Ireland.
1. Slow Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage
This classic is made easy in the slow cooker. Relax and let it do the work for you while sipping on your pint!
2. Roasted Potatoes
The traditional, humble potato gets all dressed up for dinnertime.
3. Beef and Vegetable Hand Pies
Portable and filled with an aromatic melange of ingredients, these hand pies are tops on our list for a handy dinner.
4. Beer Bread
Beer makes your daily bread incredibly easy (and tasty)! It's a great side for our other Irish dishes, or just smeared with a layer of Irish butter.
5. Vegetarian Shepherd's Pie
Vegetarians shouldn't go without the fanatastic flavors of shepherd's pie! This meatless version is so good even carnivores won't miss the meat.
6. Whiskey Mussels en Papillote
Why mussels? Why not! Whiskey adds depth of flavor to this surprisingly simple recipe.
7. Green Curry Chicken
Sure, curry might not be Irish, but we go gaga for the brilliant shade of green in this dish.
8. Buttermilk Mashed Potatoes
We couldn't end without one more potato recipe, right? Use this mashed tater recipe as the basis for colcannon, and stir in cooked cabbage or kale at the end.
