Happy St. Pat's Day, everyone. I am making dinner tonight and have decided to make a few of my own changes on the usual dinner fare. I am cooking my corned beef in beer, in a covered casserole in the oven (my Irish friend says it is the only way to cook corned beef -- we'll see??). I am making lots of coleslaw with both green and red cabbage, carrots, onions, and raisins. There will also be boiled red potatoes tossed in melted butter with lots of chopped parsley. I am planning to drizzle olive oil on fresh asparagus, salt and pepper and roast the spears in a 400ºF oven until tender. There will be a tossed salad, too. This morning I baked two loaves of Irish soda bread. My friend is bringing a cream pie made from Bailey's Irish Cream -- looking forward to trying this!
What are you serving -- traditional or with a little twist?? Have a good "green" weekend!!
