\"\"<\/span>Tomorrow, March 17, is St. Patrick’s Day (as if you didn’t know)<\/em> and hey, what the heck, Irish or not, it’s a great day to make Corned Beef (huh, not cornbeef???)<\/em> and cabbage! And a Green Mock Cocktail to wash it all down!
\nCorned Beef and Cabbage<\/em>
\nfaToid: <\/em> 3 ounces of corned beef is approximately 210 calories \/ 70 calories per ounce.
\nIngredients<\/em>
\n3 pounds corned beef brisket with spice packet
\n10 small red potatoes
\n1\/2 pound onions, very small wedges
\n5 carrots, peeled and chopped into bite sized pieces
\n1 large head cabbage, cut into small wedges
\nAlternate spices<\/em>
\n1 tablespoon coarsely ground black pepper
\n1 teaspoon ground allspice
\n2 bay leaves
\n2 teaspoons kosher salt
\nInstructions<\/em>
\nPlace corned beef in large pot or Dutch oven and cover with water.
\nSprinkle the spice packet that came with the corned beef. (If you purchased a corned beef without the spice packet, don’t panic!!! See ‘Alternate spices.’)
\nCover pot and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
\nSimmer approximately 50 minutes per pound or until tender. (In this case approx. 2.5 hours!)
\nAdd whole potatoes, onions and carrots. Cook until the vegetables are almost tender.
\nAdd cabbage and cook for another 15 minutes.
\nRemove meat and let it rest, breathe, cool on the counter for about 15 minutes before slicing!
\nTips<\/strong>
\nSlice meat across the grain!
\nFor a pretty presentation, serve on platter with the vegetable circling the sliced corned beef.
\nSave the liquid and use as a ‘gravy.’ Drizzle over veggies et al!
\nAnd NOW for your GREEN DESSERT MOCKTAIL … Smoothie!
\nStrawberry-Kiwi Smoothie<\/strong>
\nIngredients<\/em>
\n1 Cup Strawberry-Kiwi HINT<\/a> (Hint<\/a> is a water drink that comes in a variety of flavors)
\n1 Scoop lime sherbet
\n1 Generous Pinch of mint leaves
\n1 Strawberry
\n4 Kiwifruits, peeled and halved (very high in potassium!!! and delicious)
\n1 Cup crushed ice
\nInstructions<\/em>
\nBlend the following ingredients in a blender and serve.
