Corn beef with a nice Guinness beverage!
I like Kolcannon. Not sure if I spelled that right, but the one where you mix greens with the potatoes. Yummy.
I just tried Irish Soda Bread this year and I have no clue what else I would like to try, but that was pretty good!
I like Irish Soda bread:)
I had never heard of Irish Soda Bread until a few years back when I was in line at Panera around St Paddy’s day and they had samples out. I ended up loving it but haven’t even thought of it since! What a great reminder and there is nothing better than a tried and true recipe. I might just have to give this a whirl! Thanks for sharing!
