17 Recipes for St. Patrick’s Day

By Chris Cockren 18 Comments

creative st. patrick's day recipes

17 creative, unique, and absolutely delicious-looking recipes to make St. Patrick’s Day a major culinary success with family and friends at your house. 

It’s time for some cold, hard truth.  You may judge me.  You may even dislike what I’m about to say.  Ready?  You may want to sit down for this…

I am not a fan of St. Patrick’s Day.

I’m not against it.  It’s not that I have something against the Irish or the color green.  I just have no connection to it.  We never celebrated it growing up.  And I have never experienced a soda bread or corned beef and cabbage dish that got my taste buds truly excited.

Sorry if I’m crushing dreams here.

But then I started looking at Pinterest and a bunch of my blogging friends’ recent posts.  And you know what?  There are some really great looking St. Patrick’s Day recipes out there!  Like, these recipes get me excited to put on some green, slap on one of those “Kiss Me I’m Irish” buttons, and start talking like a leprechaun.

So since my life is so void of any St. Patrick’s Day cheer, here are some recipes I’m thinking of trying out for the big day…

irish soda bread

The Best Gluten Free Irish Soda Bread by my blogging friend Sandra over at Kitchen Apparel

I trust Sandra when she say’s this is the best gluten-free irish soda bread recipe… most likely she tried a ton of them before coming to this soda bread eureka.

guinness glazed chicken sandwich

Guinness Glaze Chicken Sandwich by my blogging friend Lyuba over at Will Cook for Smiles

How good does that guinness glaze look?!  I want to add that to everything!

avocado egg salad sandwich

Avocado Egg Salad by my blogging friend Krista over at Joyful Healthy Eats

 I’ve never thought of adding avocado to egg salad before, but it makes so much sense!  Can’t wait to start doing this whenever I feel like I have the patience to peel all those shells (one of my least favorite kitchen tasks, haha) …but that’s why I have my sous chef (Asheley) do that for me ๐Ÿ™‚

guinness beef stew

Guinness Beef Stew by my blogging friend Nicole over at Wonky Wonderful

Stews are pretty fantastic, and this one looks meaty, hearty, and absolutely delicious.

Kolcannon

Irish Colcannon: Potatoes with Bacon and Cabbage by Mary over at Barefeet in the Kitchen

Did someone say bacon?!

corned beef canapes

Healthy Corned Beef Canapes by Wendy over at Around My Family Table

I love tapas-style eating, and although I kinda don’t like calling things “cute” (other than my adorable niece and nephew), these are pretty darn cute.

Corned Beef Mac and Cheese by Laura over at Family Spice

What really has to be said?!  It’s mac and cheese with corned beef… sold!

Stuffed Reuben Pull Apart Bread by Wendy over at Around My Family Table

I’ve never made pull apart bread before, but this recipe is totally making me want to!

Corned Beef Sandwich with Guinness Caramelized Onions and Grainy Mustard 500 8141

Corned Beef Grilled Cheese with Guinness Caramelized Onions by Kevin over at Closet Cooking

Corned beef surrounded by molten cheese and a generous helping of onions caramelized with some Guinness… does this not sound amazing?!

corned beef tacos

Corned Beef Tacos with Guinness Dipping Sauce by Karen over at Tasty Trials

My extreme love for tacos is no secret.  I love them.  I love everything about them.  And I want these tacos in my life this St. Patrick’s Day.  Period.

irish cake 4

Triple Irish Cream Chocolate Caramel Cake by my blogging from Consuelo over at Honey & Figs

Consuelo always has great sounding recipes on her site that are decadent yet still a bit on the healthy side.

Irish-cream-cheesecake-brownies-baileys-st-patricks-day-writing

Irish Cream Cheesecake Brownies by my blogging friend Cate over at Chez CateyLou

I am a huge fan of brownies.  I am a huge fan of cheesecake.  Put them together and I’m one happy guy.

Irish-Cream-Brownie-Milkshake

Irish Cream + Brownie Milkshake by my blogging friend David over at Spiced

 I cannot believe my eyes… a BROWNIE milkshake!  Oh heck yes.

Chocolate-stout-cake-with-cream-cheese-glaze-web-1

Chocolate Stout Cake with Cream Cheese Glaze by my blogging friend Ashley over at Cookie Monster Cooking

I’ve been increasingly excited by cream cheese frosting and glazes lately.  And you can never go wrong with chocolate cake.  My waistline agrees.

St. Patrick’s Day Muddy Buddies by Elizabeth over at FrugalMomEh

Muddy Buddies are pretty darn addicting (case in point… these), and I’m loving this St. Patrick’s Day version.

How gorgeous is this cake?!?!  Anyone beside me want to dive head first into this photo and face plant into that cake?

Everything about this sounds amazing.  Chocolate brownie ice cream.  Whiskey whipped cream.  Guinness chocolate sauce.  Devour.

    I’m with you C on St. Pat’s Day, I try to get involved/excited but I can’t find any real connection to it.
    However, some of those recipes look amazingly good. Gonna have to try some…

    I feel the same way about St. Patty’s Day. It’s not that I dislike it, I just don’t really care? I’m not Irish so to me it’s just an excuse to make cake with stout haha And thank you for including said cake!!

      Phew, glad to know I’m not the only one that just doesn’t care that much about it! Haha, having a reason to cook with alcohol is always welcomed!

    Thanks for including my brownies in your St. Patrick’s Day list! I hope I helped convince you to like this holiday – it is mostly about food and booze, so what’s not to love about that?! Can’t wait to try some of these other recipes – that corned beef grilled cheese is calling my name!

      Haha, this is very true Cate. Food and booze is a pretty convincing argument…

    haha.. I’m not a fan of St. Pattys day either. I think I celebrated it once in college and it was more because we could go out and drink green beer {which they were out of when we got to the bar} and then go and see the river in downtown Chicago dyed green.

    Love all these recipes Chris, that Guiness Stew sounds awesome and so does that Guiness Float! YUM Great roundup, thanks for including me in the St. Patty’s day fun. ๐Ÿ™‚

    We didn’t celebrate St. Patty when I was growing up either – but I will take any excuse to eat a slice of that Double Chocolate Stout Mousse Cake!!! Good golly!!!
    Chris, these are a wonderful collection – but that cake takes THE CAKE!

    Hey! Thanks for including my Guinness Stew! All of these St Patty’s Day recipes look much tastier than flat green beer. I don’t really celebrate St Patrick’s Day either, besides making corned beef and cabbage. I did post a few recipes this year and they have been popular. So somebody is celebrating it … or people just like booze in their food ๐Ÿ˜€

    Great run-down, Chris! I love the look of that grilled cheese corned beef sandwich! & it’s only 7.30am. Is that weird?
    I know what you mean about St. Patty’s day. I’ve been quite surprised to see how much of a big thing it seems to be in the US. Not so much over here … only really if you have a strong Irish connection. Anyway, hope you have fun cooking up a storm with these recipes!

      Haha it’s never too early for grilled cheese! I know, it’s totally big here but most likely I’ll still forget to wear green on the big day. Oops! haha
