Saint Patrick’s Day Special Menu
Welcome to the Bass Family Kitchen St Patrick’s Day
menu! We love the idea of themed menus,
it lets us get a bit creative. We
started this year with the Valentine’s Day menu, now the St Patrick’s Day and
there are more being planned as I type this.
This one is a little different than the first one we did, there are four
parts to the YouTube videos. That way if
there’s something that you’d like to see, you don’t have to go through the
entire video to find it…plus as a single video it would have been too long! The menu contains Green Beer, Irish Soda
Bread, Shepherd’s Pie and Mint Chocolate Pot-o-Gold Cupcakes with a Bailey’s Buttercream
Icing.

With part one, we introduce our menu to you and have a
little Irish celebration at the end, green beer!

In creating our little menu for St Patrick’s, we starting
looking for a few ideas. Since we were
making a stew like dish, we thought that a bread would go nicely with it. The Irish soda bread is a very easy bread to
make…no yeast, no kneading (well, not much kneading) or rising needed. It’s a
very rustic style bread, but it does need to be eaten soon after you make it,
it will turn into a hard, inedible mass after a day or so that you could use as
a door stop or boat anchor. It is best
fresh out of the oven. We hope that you
enjoy.

This Shepherd’s Pie is loosely based on Alton Brown recipe,
but like all others we’ve made, we adapted it to our tastes and made it our own. This is not a traditional Shepherd’s Pie, but
I think it does have more flavor than others we eaten. We like to add heat wherever possible, but that
is optional. We hope that you enjoy.

We love all Holidays! They give us the chance to put our
creative caps on, and whip out some fun “themed” foods. These cupcakes are so
adorable and delicious. You or your kids will love breaking open the middle and
finding the fun surprise inside. This recipe can be made with the Bailey’s for
a fun cupcake for adults, or without the Bailey’s to keep it “kid friendly.”
