St. Paddy’s Day Recipes

Tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day—do you have your green clothes picked out yet?

Do you have your recipes picked out yet? Here are some suggestions for ya!

Irish Coffee. Dreamy, delectable, and a real problem on those years I give up booze for Lent.

Irish Hills Cupcakes. The only thing Irish about ‘em is that they’re green…but the same can be said about the lime jello salad I’m making tomorrow, and I’m learning to forgive myself.

Irish Grilled Cheese. Irish cheddar, delicious rye bread, Irish mustard…bliss!

Corned Beef & Cabbage. Now we’re talkin’! I love this classic St. Paddy’s Day meal, and the balsamic reduction is so delicious on the cabbage!

Guinness Float! I apologize to all mankind for this one. So weird, so wonderful…and vanilla ice cream isn’t the only flavor that works. Try coffee, try cinnamon…try dulce de leche (wow)…just try it!

Sunday Night Stew. Not a traditional Irish Stew, but it’ll definitely work in a pinch! (If you’d like to get a little more traditional, use lamb instead of beef.) This stew is scrumptious!

Then I have a handful of recipes to show you that lend themselves well to adapting to St. Patrick’s Day: For these cream cheese-tortilla roll-ups, simply use green bell pepper, jalapenos, green herbs, green onions, and/or green chiles to make a St. Paddy’s version!

Kale Pasta Salad! Nothing Irish about it, but it’s nice and green. (And delicious!)

Marshmallow Pops! Cover them with any green sprinkle your heart tells you to use. Super cute, super quick, always fun.

Holiday Bark. Green M&M’s, pistachios, green melting candy for a drizzle…a St. Paddy’s Day version would be adorable.

Finger Jello. It’s a royal pain to make…but so colorful and fun. Use lime jello to make the perfect St. Patrick’s Day treat.

That’s all for now! I’ll have a quick little green recipe to share tomorrow…but meantime, hope you find something here to whip up tomorrow.

Happy St. Paddy’s Day Eve, everyone!
