Do you go all out for St. Patrick’s Day celebrations? We don’t do the green beer-drinking thing, but we do have an Irish meal, that’s for sure! This year, it’s a toss-up between Irish Colcannon Soup or my colcannon served wtih roast beef. If you are undecided, how about taking a look through these 19 St. Patrick’s Day Recipes for some inspiration?
St. Patrick’s Day is one of those days that everyone seems to enjoy, whether they are Irish or not. North American bars and pubs are well stocked with beer. There’s green food on every menu. And, people wear as much green clothing as they can!
I’m just all about the food! So, every year, I try to get a new recipe posted that showcases the colour green or can fit into Irish cuisine. Do you have any traditional St. Patrick’s Day food items that you prepare for your family? Even though I am of Irish descent, our main food item is limited to colcannon. But, that’s because we love it so much! Let’s put all that aside for now and get on with the recipes!

Homemade Irish Soda Bread is a quick-bake bread with no yeast, which makes it a dense bread, yet it’s still very light and airy. Soaking the slices in an egg mixture and pan-frying them in butter makes for a deliciously wonderful St. Patrick’s Day breakfast! You have got to try this Irish Soda Bread French Toast; you will not be disappointed!
Otherwise known as cheese toast, rarebit is prepared with cheese sauce rather than cheese slices like the popular North American grilled cheese. Irish Gherkin Rarebit has pickles too, which is why it just might be my favourite! Cheap and easy, serve these with a side salad and extra gherkins for a complete meal!
Mashed Potatoes are everyone’s favourite comfort food and side dish, which is what makes it the most common side dish in many homes and on many occasions. But, boring mashed potatoes are a thing of the past! Leek Mashed Potatoes are such a refreshing and welcome change! Made with garlic and leeks, these potatoes are a great side for almost any main!
The ultimate comfort food is mashed potatoes and gravy. Serving pan-fried bangers with the two is a no-brainer! This hearty, family-friendly meal is easy to prepare and quite delicious. Bangers and Mash with Homemade Onion Gravy might be considered peasant food, but I’d serve this to the fanciest of folks without any hesitation!
Little sandwiches made with tortillas are often called pinwheels and they are very popular! Not only are they easy to make and quite delicious too, but they are adaptable to any occasion and are enjoyed by kids and adults alike! This particular pinwheel is stuffed with a slightly sweetened cream cheese and chopped cucumber mixture with loads of fresh dill – these just scream spring!
Take this Irish Egg Salad Sandwich to work with you for lunch this St. Patrick’s Day! It’s the most delicious and interesting egg salad sandwich you’ll ever eat! It is super flavourful and filled with freshness too. Get your favourite sandwich bread and overfill it with this egg salad mixture; if it’s not messy, you’re not doing it right!
Thick or thin, the choice is yours, but when it comes to Homestyle Gravy with Peas and Carrots, I think thick is best! This easy to make from scratch gravy is deliciously savoury and a perfect vessel to suspend those buttered carrots and peas into! Pour liberally over mashed potatoes and dig in!
Best served with tea as an afternoon snack, Irish Barmbrack Loaf is prepared with dried fruit that has been soaked in strong, hot tea. Super moist and flavourful, this loaf is inspired by traditional barmbrack bread.
Made with a few simple ingredients, like flour, baking soda, sugar, and buttermilk, Irish Soda Bread is a great introduction to baking bread. It’s a rustic and dense bread that’s paired perfectly with soup!
With St. Patrick’s Day just around the corner, why not plan to prepare this Irish Colcannon Soup for dinner? It’s a homemade, hearty, and healthy main! Filled with potatoes, leeks, cabbage, and kale, this is certainly a good-for-you soup!
A creamy and hearty soup made with simple and inexpensive ingredients; warming, inviting, and delicious, Potato and Leek Soup is the perfect cold-weather recipe that comes together in about an hour. Everyone loves this soup!
Sweet oniony leeks are paired with garlic, parmesan, and butter in this rustic and delicious Creamy Leek and Garlic Spaghetti. This recipe, although vegetarian, is hearty and filling and can be on your dinner table in thirty minutes or less!
A light and fluffy, yet moist and flavourful, Pistachio Pudding Cake topped with cream cheese frosting is perfectly green and festive. This is the ultimate green dessert for St. Patrick’s Day!
A side dish needn’t be complicated and fussy; Sauteed Green Peas is a wonderful side to almost any meal! Just a few basic ingredients, like peas, garlic, and shallots is all you need to transform the humble pea into an extraordinary side!
This warm salad consists of pillow-soft baby potatoes, bright green peas, and lots of fresh dill. These are tossed in a dressing prepared with olive oil, grainy mustard, champagne vinegar, and seasonings. Serve this dish anytime, because a really good potato salad is always a hit!
Saucy and savoury, Instant Pot Beef Short Ribs are tender and flavourful – just the way ribs should be! Take the long, slow-braising, stovetop cooking method out of the equation with this faster instant pot recipe! The braising liquid easily doubles as a delicious gravy too!
Kale is not usually associated with comfort food, but when it is combined with potatoes in a béchamel sauce and baked in the oven until it becomes golden and bubbly; Potato and Kale Gratin is most certainly the most comforting of comfort foods!
Frosted Two Bite Brownies are for the serious chocolate lover! Dense and moist brownies frosted with the easiest chocolate frosting you’ll ever make and topped with sprinkles; you can’t eat just one! Decorate them to fit the occasion; in this case, it’s green and gold for St. Patrick’s Day!
