Top o' the mornin' to ya! I don't know why the only time I think to make corned beef and cabbage is on St. Patrick's day. My whole family loves it! I found this Easy Corned Beef and Cabbage recipe for the slow cooker--perfect for Sunday.
I prepared all of the food, stuck it in the crock pot, and headed off to church. The smell when we returned and walked in the door was intoxicating! I nearly salivated while I took this picture.
Instead of adding the cabbage from the very beginning of the cooking like the recipe says, I added mine an hour before the corned beef was supposed to come out. That way it could retain its flavor.
Ready for some corned beef and cabbage, Shamrock Shakes, and A Little Taste of the Rainbow.
The kids loved it all!
