St. Patrick’s Day food can be as fun as it is delicious! Whether you want to prepare Irish food, festive-looking food, or a combination of the two, these eight recipes can put a wee bit o’ the holiday on your table.
We like this recipe because it is quick, easy, and versatile. The recipe comes together in about 10 minutes. While it takes some time to bake, you can work on other things while you wait for it to finish. Plus, this traditional recipe works well as a breakfast dish or as a side with lunch or dinner.
Cabbage and potatoes are traditional Irish staples, and this classic Irish dish uses both! We’ve selected this recipe because it’s simple, hearty, and pairs well with other Irish dishes you might enjoy on St. Patrick’s Day.
Irish beef stew is such a classic that we would be remiss not to include a recipe for it on this list. We selected this recipe because you can make it in a slow cooker. Since it doesn’t call for beer like many Irish stew recipes, you also don’t have to worry so much about cooking off the alcohol if you’re serving it to children.
Corned beef and cabbage is an Irish-American dish frequently served on St. Patrick’s Day. We like that this recipe doesn’t require much prep and cooks in a slow cooker, making it as convenient as it is hearty and satisfying.
Many traditional Irish dishes use a lot of meat. We’ve included this recipe in the list to help those who are avoiding meat get in on the holiday fun! This vegan shepherd’s pie includes some of the same flavors as more traditional recipes without any of the meat or dairy.
While this is not a traditional Irish dish, we’ve included it on the list because it would look so beautiful for St. Patrick’s Day. Since the vibrant salad looks a lot like a rainbow, even children might be eager to eat their vegetables.
Looking for a fun dish to serve your children? We think these adorable tea sandwiches fit the bill! They contain relatively simple ingredients and aren’t too complicated to make, but they look irresistibly cute! You might serve them as a snack or as part of lunch.
Fast food shamrock shakes are popular this time of year, so you and/or your kids may be craving them. We like this recipe because it has the festive green color and minty flavor of the popular treat without dairy, refined sugar, artificial color, or additives. In fact, this recipe is downright healthy, but don’t worry…we won’t tell your children.
