easter egg salad

Leftover Easter Egg Salad

A classic egg salad is the perfect resting place for the rainbow of hard-boiled eggs leftover from Easter.I love to dress up my egg salad with fresh herbs, especially dill. I like to dice my eggs rather than smash them—follow suit and you’ll still get a nice, chunky consistency.

Au Gratin Potato Casserole

No wonder potatoes au gratin are a French classic. They make a perfect side for almost any main dish—pork, chicken, beef, and of course, the Easter ham. And my Au Gratin Potato Casserole is the absolute creme de la creme of potatoes.

Chocolate, coffee, and cinnamon in one cookie? Get outta here! On my Christmas platter, this is the one everyone goes for. Don't tell anybody, but these are my favorite biscotti, too. Delightful.

colcannon potatoes

Colcannon Potatoes

This earthy, savory colcannon recipe takes plain old mashed potatoes up a notch. It’s so fresh and flavorful that you might even end up like me—serving it up alongside other carbs. Word to the wise: don’t be afraid to go ham on the bacon.

Terri’s Irish Oysters with Bacon, Cabbage and Guinness Hollandaise

My friend, Terri, uses the Guinness to liven up a traditional hollandaise sauce that tops off these Irish oysters. You won’t believe how easy these are to make at home. And in my experience, anything that Terri touches is gold!

guinness beef stew

Guinness Beef Stew Pot Pie

Guinness Stout gives the whole dish a rich, deep flavor, and the aromas of thyme, rosemary and onion will have you drooling long before it’s ready to eat. I can’t believe I haven’t been making this dish my entire life. That’s how good it is.

Bailey’s Irish Cream Coffee Milkshake

This recipe combines two of my favorite treats: Irish coffee and milkshakes. Yep, it’s time for my Bailey’s Irish Cream Coffee Milkshake! This recipe is terrific on its own, but you know me—I like to add a few embellishments.

Bailey's Irish Cream Chocolate Martini

Chocolate is a must on Valentine’s Day. If you would rather drink your chocolate, you’ve got to try my chocolate martini. On the other hand, it’s almost too pretty to drink… You can impress your sweetheart, too, with just a swirl of chocolate ganache. I’ll teach you how to make it at home, but you can use store-bought chocolate sauce in a pinch, too.
