St. Patrick’s Day Dinner Ideas

Looking for St. Patrick’s Day dinner ideas? Here are 12 recipes to help get your “holiday” meal planning started.

I love to put together a special meal for holidays. Last year for St. Patrick’s Day I made this delicious corned beef and cabbage dish in the Instant Pot, along with some Irish soda bread for Jay’s mom. It was so easy and it turned out so well, I was even a bit surprised myself! I’ve never enjoyed corned beef before.

Based on my experience last year, I have been busy scouring the internet looking for recipe ideas I could work with this year. I found so many great options, I thought it would be fun to share all the St. Patrick’s Day dinner ideas with you!
