I have neglected my poor little food blog for the past month......
but that does not mean that I have not been cooking!
I have lots of recipes to share with you (complete with pictures, of course!) and I will posting them rapidly. :-)
But today, we are all about Irish food.....
Last year, I decided to go all traditional on my family and I made a corned beef roast and cooked cabbage, with soda bread on the side. They were NOT FANS.
So this year I am going back to the old standby--Reuben sandwiches. Except we use turkey in our family because: 1) it is healthier and 2) it tastes better (IMO). And I am trying my hand at making my own sauerkraut, due to inspiration from an episode of Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. I will let you know how that turns out.....stand by!
Maybe next year I will just stick with a "GREEN" menu.......
my green enchiladas
cabbage and broccoli
and grasshopper pie for dessert. ;-)
What do you think?

It's not a Reuben unless it's made with Corned Beef.
ReplyDeletebonus points for the home made sauerkraut though!
ReplyDeleteIt's a "turkey reuben"! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI think green enchiladas and grasshopper pie both sound amazing. I've never heard of people celebrating St. Patrick's Day more than wearing a bit of green, but I think I'll join in the festivities next year - it sounds so fun and so yummy.
