Celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day with this collection of Saint Patrick’s Day recipes!
Although I’ve never been one to attend the parade or don a bright green leprechaun hat, I still love coming up with unique food for Saint Patrick’s Day. I’m a huge fan of soda bread (both the sweet and savory varieties) as well as Saint Patrick’s Day dessert recipes like Irish cream pudding…and of course green foods (shoutout to Chefmaster‘s green gel food coloring!)
