Frequently Asked Questions
What is the most traditional food served for St. Patrick's Day?
Corned beef and cabbage is very popular, as is Colcannon, Boxty, and Shepherd's Pie.
What do you drink with an Irish meal?
I would drink Guinness Stout, but drink what you would for any other meal. Red wine is a great choice with red meat, and Pinot Noir goes with just about anything.
Why is the color green associated with St. Patrick's Day?
Most of the stories you've probably heard are not true. The green has nothing to do with snakes or leprechauns, but represents Irish Nationalism. The colors of the Irish flag are green, orange, and white.
St Patrick's Day Desserts
Of course, you will want to serve dessert. Choose from these 26 St Patrick's Day desserts, or maybe these St Patrick's Day Cupcakes are a better fit. I do like handheld desserts because it's one less thing to worry about.
I hope I've given you enough St. Patrick's Day dinner recipes to get your party started! Enjoy- and remember to have a designated driver or spend the night at the party. I'm counting on you to be safe!!
