HAPPY ST. PATRICK’S DAY! According to my Ancestry report I am about 11 percent Irish so why not celebrate with some shamrock cookies. I have been making my Mom’s Sugar Cookies ever since I can remember. I still have some of the old cookie cutters we used as children. The cookies are a little fragile … Continue reading
When it’s March I always think of “corned beef” for St. Patrick’s Day and the fact is I do have some Irish heritage (thanks Ancestry). Corned beef and cabbage is often on the menu partly because I enjoy the leftovers in reuben sandwiches. This year I wanted to make something new and different in the … Continue reading
Colcannon comes from the Gaelic term “cal ceannann” which means white-headed cabbage. The Irish tradition is to serve this as the main dish for Halloween festivities and is known as “Colcannon Night”. The introduction of this classic potato and cabbage dish in America has been served more commonly on St. Patrick’s Day. I looked at … Continue reading
This is an old recipe of mine and since this is “lam1”, or my first lamb recipe, from my previous computer file, it is very old. I use to fix this to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day but Corned Beef became the favorite. Yes, I have a little Irish heritage (Maclean clan) but also Scottish, English … Continue reading

When you want a special coffee drink this is a good choice and it serves one. How about serving it after you eat Corned Beef and Cabbage tomorrow for St. Pat’s Day? While going through my files I ran across this iced version of Irish Coffee from Cuisine at Home and wanted to include it.
I like to serve this for breakfast or as a light dinner with a salad. Homemade is so much tastier than what you get in a can. Before my husband met me that was how he fixed his corned beef – straight from a can! This recipe comes from Weight Watcher’s and if my husband liked it, it … Continue reading
These are very delicious cookies with the nuts and pistachio pudding and a perfect dessert to share with your family and friends. They are a light shade of green and you could decorate them if you want to with squiggles of green icing. March 13, 2017 – new pics!
Yes, I do like my “get ready the day before casseroles” and this breakfast treat is a way to use up that leftover corned beef. The crunchy topping is a nice change from having the bread on the bottom. I added more toasted rye bread when I made it again – gave the casserole a … Continue reading
This is a traditional dish I make every year for St. Patrick’s Day. Having experimented with a number of recipes I finally settled with this recipe which everyone likes. It is a Weight Watcher’s entree and another plus is that it is cooked in a slow cooker.
