Happy St. Patrick's Day & Weekly Menu
Happy Saint Patrick's Day! In Ireland, today is actually a religious holiday celebrating Christianity coming to the country. After honoring the saint at church while wearing a shamrock that symbolizes the holy trinity, traditional Lenten restrictions were lifted. At one point, the celebrations got a little out of hand and pubs in Ireland were actually closed in observance of the holiday. Since then, the pubs are back open and the wee bit of Irish in all of us comes out to celebrate.
We are celebrating the day with food! Some eggs and potatoes with Irish coffee for breakfast and vegetarian shepherd's pie, a pint of Guinness, and car bomb cupcakes for dessert. Yum!
And here is this week's menu (a couple carryover from last week, since I didn't get to them).
veggie sushi and miso soup
sundried tomato fettucine
roasted corn and tomato soup with grilled cheese croutons
fajita rice casserole
broccoli and cheddar pot pies
vegetarian lasagna rollups
Yum
