Answer 2

Cabbage and Potato Bake
Recipe courtesy Emeril Lagasse, 2001
Episode: St. Patricks Day Party

1 cabbage, about 2 to 2 1/2 pounds
2 large Idaho potatoes, about 2 1/2 pounds
12 ounces lean bacon, cut into 1/2-inch dice
2 cups yellow onions, peeled and sliced lengthwise
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups homemade chicken stock, or canned, low-sodium chicken broth

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Rinse the cabbage under cold running water and remove the tough outer leaves. Cut the cabbage into quarters and remove the hard core. Cut the cabbage quarters into halves and place, rounded side down, in a roasting pan.

Cut the potatoes in half crosswise and peel. Cut the peeled potato halves into quarters, and arrange in the roasting pan, alternating with the cabbage pieces.

Fry the bacon in a heavy medium skillet for 7 minutes. Add the sliced onions, salt, and black pepper to the pan and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Evenly distribute the bacon mixture and pan drippings over the vegetables, then pour the chicken stock on top. Tightly cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake for 1 1/2 hours.

Remove the pan from the oven and allow to sit, covered, for 15 minutes before serving. Serve the vegetables with the bacon and broth spooned over them.

Answer 3

It looks like the winner is-----potatoes! Along with that make a waldorf salad: chopped up apples, finely sliced celery, raisins, a little mayo and honey and cinnamon and you've got a great little salad. Or you could make lime dry jello mixed in with a small can of crushed pineapple and 1 tub of cottage cheese. Mix all together and put in the fridge for a couple of hours. Then you have your 'green' St Paddy's complete meal!
Enjoy!

Answer 4

Potatoes, some good options are new potatoes or red skin potatoes, boiled of course, as is traditional.

If you're looking to throw in some dairy, fat free cottage cheese--or any cottage cheese--is sometimes good.

Yeah, you gotta have the potatoes...and served with some dijon mustard on the side.....not the crappy yellow stuff.
