How about Shepherd's pie or lamb stew? Did you know that, supposedly, there are no snakes in Ireland and that is attributed to St Patrick? Just heard that today...wonder if it's true! I may join you and celebrate St Patrick with a fine meal! I'll have to check out Debbie's website!

Green beer and a Shamrock hat Also, if you make the corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, there is a thing you can do with the leftovers called red flannel hash. Its basically mashing all those things together, and frying it up. Maybe Buckytom can help?

Salmon in all its forms comes to mind if you want to be fancy.

Red flannel hash is a lot of potato and onion, a little corned beef, and -- a beet or two. The beets give it that color. If there's such a thing as a recipe for it, I'm sure it is in Joy of Cooking. The emphasis for any hash is the root vegetables. The red comes from a beet tossed into the mix.

Boxties are one of my favourite Irish treats... sort of a potato pancake, delicious with apple sauce...
