36 delicious recipes to celebrate St. Patrick's Day


St. Patrick’s Day may not be considered a foodie holiday, but its timing — at the tailend of a long winter — sort of makes it perfect for celebrating with Irish staples. Think hearty shepherd’s pie. Roasted potatoes. Feeling warmer already? And thanks to the whole color theme, there are endless ways to make your St. Patrick’s Day recipes a little healthier too with a sprinkling of greens.
Festive brunch ideas
From twists on classic Irish dishes to meals that simply dress the part (we see you, green bagels), these recipes will help you start your day feeling satisfied and energized.


Flavorful appetizers and side dishes
There are a zillion ways to serve potatoes, and — indeed — we have a few ideas here. But there’s plenty of starters and sides that look beyond the humble tuber for something equally starchy and filling.

Sweet desserts and drinks
Whether you’re in the mood for something classic (soda bread) or something more inventive (matcha-infused pudding), we’ve got you covered.
