Crock Pot Corned Beef & Cabbage

January 29, 2017 Amanda Plott

I love corned beef and cabbage. I really don't know why I don't make it more often. This year, I decided to get a little ahead of the St. Patrick's Day celebrations to update the photos here from the recipe that I originally posted here back in 2013. I've had a lot of fun lately as I've started to go back and edit some of my older favorites; cleaning them up and reorganizing it all.

I'm an Irish girl (my dad's a full on red-head), so it's probably no surprise that I love corned beef. That being said, I think the first time I ever had it was sometime during my high school or college years. It's a really great meal to make anytime, but especially in March as we get closer to St. Patricks' Day!...

Skinny Shepherd's Pie

February 13, 2014 Amanda Plott

I'm irish and... rather proud of it. Even so, the first time I ever had Shepherd's Pie was when I cooked it for myself. It was a rather easy recipe to prepare and of course goes along famously with St. Patrick's Day.

Now, I've never been to Ireland, so I can't really say whether this is a traditional style variation or not. Though from what I can tell, every recipe seems to be different - just with the basic idea that meat and vegetables make up the bottom layer while potatoes of some sort are spread over the top...
