"I really wanted to make these for St Patty's Day but it would have been kind of expensive buying all of the ingredients. Not to knock this recipe! Thought I'd share that I used a $1.50 box mix (Duncan Hines - Dark Chocolate Fudge and used Guinness instead of water and they turned out GREAT!

Reviewed Corned Beef and Cabbage
"My boyfriend is not crazy about cabbage and usually just pushes it around his plate every St. Patty's day. This year after reading all of the reviews I used the cabbage portion of this recipe only and paired it with the simple "Slow Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage" recipe also on this site. I am SO glad I did!
The butter and onions turned a bland veggie into something really delicious and by combining these two recipes I feel like I really found the perfect mix. I plan to use this every year, thanks!"
Reviewed Sausage and Apple Stuffing
"My grandma makes a sausage and apple stuffing but she is old school and just "eye-balls" ingredients. Needless to say the directions she gave me were useless - I need actual measurements. This recipe really saved the day! I omitted the walnuts and celery and was happy to find Jimmy Dean actually makes a sage flavored sausage. Perfect!
We stuffed the turkey with stuffing and it came out soggy and gross. I ended up throwing it away. The stuffing cooked in a baking dish however was AMAZING. This will be my only stuffing from now on. "
Reviewed Slow Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage
"I've made this recipe 3 times and have a few tips:
-Buy the biggest cut you can find – it will shrink by about 50% when you cook it
-Buy flat cut - point cut is fatty and has little meat
-Omit the celery
-When you remove the corned beef from the slow cooker - wrap it up to cool in the fridge while the cabbage cooks. When the meat is too hot it is “stringy” and slicing is near impossible. 30 minutes in the fridge makes slicing a breeze and you can reheat it quickly in the microwave.
-Cook the cabbage for 20 minutes then follow the steps in Melissa D' Arabian's Corned Beef & Cabbage recipe *also on this site*. She slices the cabbage and cooks it in butter and carmelized onions. My boyfriend and I aren't really cabbage fans and we LOVED it with her variation.
I give it 5 stars for flavor and how easy it is to make. This will be my official St. Patty’s Day recipe every year!"

About Me
My great-grandma, grandma and mom were/are all great cooks - the kind that don't use recipes and everything always turns out perfectly. I, on the other hand, treat cooking like paint-by-numbers. I need good, solid directions to follow! I like finding recipes online and tweaking them to my skill level and (sometimes picky) tastes.
Favorite Foods
Caesar salad, pineapple, artichokes, seafood, garlic mashed potatoes, creme brulee, and coffee
My least favorite foods: Spicy tuna rolls, mushrooms, celery, nuts, beef Stroganoff, and Bacardi Limon
