Lots going on here with a doubleheader holiday week that includes both St. Patrick’s Day and Purim. All of the festivities are keeping me quite busy. Luckily, I have not attempted to make green Hamantaschen, though if things keep progressing at this rate I just might.
Here are some of my favorite gluten-free St. Patrick’s Day recipes. They run the gamut from Peppermint Patties to Irish Soda Bread –a little bit of something for everyone.
Peppermint Patties
Gluten Free Irish Soda Bread
Green Eggs
Keto Mint Chip Smoothie
It is a gorgeous day here, with bright sunshine and a high in the ’70s. We all have on shorts and t-shirts and have been mostly outside since the boys came home from school. The highlight of my day thus far? A canvasser from COPIRG stopped by to discuss how to “STOP SUBSIDIZING OBESITY.” Yup, that is the name of the Colorado Public Interest Group’s latest campaign, and yes, it is an “all caps” campaign which I do not mind since this is such a serious issue.
What issue is near and dear to your heart right now?

That cause is certainly worth the boldface. So scary what is going on out there with obesity. Awareness and action is key. Great gluten free St. Patty’s day lineup!

Elana,
I have an idea for a post or vlog from you related to all of this, but not a recipe.
How do you store your bulk seeds, flours, etc? I’m drowning under a sea of plastic bags held together with rubber bands and clips and it’s getting out of control. You look so organized and tidy, I’d love to know how you store all your dry ingredients. Thanks!

Jenny,
I store all of my dry ingredients in glass jars. Check out my “Why Glass?” post for more information.
Elana :-)

The peppermint patties look amazing! I made my own version of green eggs with vibrant green chimichurri sauce! So good.

My son LOVED his green eggs this morning. Thanks for another great recipe.

Thank you for your wonderful recipe blog!
I just learned I am gluten-sensitive and needed to change how I make baked goods. There so much confusing material out there with so many new ingredients!
Your wonderful recipe blog (and book) have made the switch to gluten-free cooking and baking a much more pleasant and happy transition.
And, being happy to have Irish ancestry and all the romanticism that entails, I very much appreciate today’s recipes!

I must admit that peppermint patties has my name all over it!
Gretchen says
This is the first I have heard of COPIRG…what a great organization!

Veggies, olives, nuts, berries, wild fish, grass fed meat, alkaline water. Subsidize that and watch health care and obesity costs and waistlines go down. Thank heavens for COPIRG!

I made the Peppermint Patties last year for St. Patrick’s Day and they were a HUGE hit! It’s such a great recipe and so easy to make…but it really WOWS everyone.

Thanks for sharing the link to the campaign! I very much agree that this is a rare cause where caps are justified.
