National Corned Beef & Cabbage Day | Corned Beef & Cabbage Sandwiches

Happy St. Patrick’s Day, everyone! Are you planning on drinking green beer or partying like a rockstar on a Monday? Well, I plan on eating this for leftovers. It’s also National Corned Beef & Cabbage Day, which seemed totally fitting, until I heard that the Irish don’t even eat Corned Beef. I heard they eat a ham hock instead. Yay or nay? What have you heard?

I’ve even been known- get ready for this- to eat the stuff out of a can and over white rice. It’s a guilty pleasure of mine that I actually am quite guilty about, unlike the “guilty pleasure” I have of the Real Housewives show. I’ll readily admit my love of Real Housewives and how I wish I could just talk to someone all day long about all the dramaz. But enough about guilty, or not so guilty, pleasures. Let’s talk about these sandwiches I made for this food holiday and how I fell in love.

Corned Beef & Cabbage Sandwiches via TheFoodiePatootie.com | #Irish #cornedbeef #cabbage #recipe #sandwiches #foodholidayThey were pretty simple, but each part of this sandwich did work to make it into this cohesive, perfect meal. I love sautéed cabbage and that slight crunch it provides. The corned beef brisket had a wonderful flavor and made the house smell so good (something I love). And onion rolls- well, they are just amazing, aren’t they?
