I honestly feel like St. Patrick’s Day recipes are some of the best comfort foods for winter, which means that I decided to find a list of equally comforting and delicious, mains, sides, and fun desserts for you!
In the winter, I think it’s important to make each month special when things seem to be a bit dark and grey. And St. Patrick’s Day comes in to do just that for us in March. So check out these yummy recipes down below and let me know if you have any favorites yourself!
St. Patricks Day Dinner Recipes
The Best Shepherd’s Pie
I love shepherd’s pie and this one made in a cast iron skillet looks incredible! The perfect dish to serve as your main for Saint Patrick’s Day!
Fried Cabbage with Bacon and Onion
All three of these things seem like the perfect combo to fry up in a pan. Looking slightly carmelized, I feel like this is the perfect side for your St. Patrick’s dinner!
