Today I was Irish. Slightly. At least in the kitchen.
Crock Pot Corned Beef & Cabbage with Beer.
Layer large chunks of potatoes, carrots & onion. Followed by water, corned beef brisket (fat side up) & beer. Sprinkle the seasoning packet from the brisket evenly over the fat. Cook on HIGH 6 hours (or so). Brush off seasoning & remove fat as best as you can. Top with sliced cabbage, salt & pepper. Continue cooking on HIGH 30-60 minutes or until cabbage is wilted.
(*measurements based on personal preference.)
Irish Soda Bread. This recipe was amazingly simple & delicious.
And then there was dessert.
A Green Velvet Cheesecake Cake. Let's just say that Recipe Girl is a genius. And I'm officially addicted.
There was also a homemade "Shamrock Shake" made with vanilla ice cream, a bit of milk & some Torani Creme de Menthe syrup. (They were slurped up before I could get a picture.)
Did you have any festive food?
This all looks so wonderful. I would stuff myself silly!
