Our annual Irish Feast, held in honor of St. Patrick's Day, has become the most anticipated gathering of the year for our friends and family.
I spend days cooking, baking, and prepping.
Guinness is flowing.
Whiskey is enjoyed (responsibly, of course).
And everyone departs happy and full of terrific Irish (or Irish inspired) food.
I hope you enjoy these terrific Irish recipes for St. Patrick's Day – or any time of the year!
Prepare an Irish Fest!
For years I've prepared an Irish feast for friends and family each St. Patrick's Day. I would spend days prepping, cooking, and baking. My family knew I would be borrowing pots for corned beef and trays for cakes.
Year after year I am asked for the recipes so (finally) I am sharing them all!
While I did not develop these recipes - some came from old cookbooks, some from friends in Ireland, some from other sources long forgotten- I have made alterations to most of them over the years to create a flavor that we love.
So choose a few of our favorites, grab some Guinness or Magners, and plan your own Irish feast!
Sláinte!
