Gluten-Free St. Patrick’s Day Recipes

We are a little over a month way from St. Patrick’s Day! As we are still dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic, you shouldn’t be going out for the holiday, but you might still want to enjoy it. In that case, this blog post is for you. I’m sharing 28 gluten-free recipes for St. Patrick’s Day food and drink.

St. Patrick's Day food is great, but it's not very accessible for people who can't eat gluten. In this post, I'm sharing nearly 30 recipes for gluten-free St. Patricks' Day food.

Gluten-Free St. Patrick’s Day Food: Desserts

Gluten-Free St. Patrick’s Day Sugar Cookies (Kristy Still)

Gluten Free Chocolate Cupcakes (Seasonal Cravings)

Gluten-Free Vegan Chocolate Mint Cake (Abbey Sharp)

St. Patrick’s Day Pot of Gold Filled Cupcakes Recipe (This Mama Cooks!)

Mint Chocolate Chip Oat Muffins (Mile High Mitts) – These are naturally colored, dairy-free, and sugar-free and there’s a vegan option.

Gluten Free No Bake Grasshopper Cookie Bars (Eat At Our Table)

Key Lime Pie Pudding Parfaits with California Avocados (Eating by Elaine) – In addition to being gluten-free, these are vegan and free of nuts and sugar

Gluten-Free St. Patrick’s Day Food: Snacks and Side Dishes

Savory Gluten Free Irish Soda Bread (Gluten Free on a Shoestring)

Paleo & Gluten Free Irish Soda Bread (A Clean Bake)

Potato Nachos (Irish Nachos) (A Dash of Megnut)

Gluten-Free Irish Brown Bread (A Dash of Megnut)

Gluten-Free Irish Soda Bread (My Gluten-Free Kitchen)

Smoked Salmon Crispy Smashed Potato Bites with Avocado Dill Sauce (Spices in My DNA)

Gluten-Free St. Patrick’s Day Food: Entrees

Slow Cooker Corned Beef (A Dash of Megnut)

Vegan Dye-Free Green Pancakes (Eating by Elaine) – Also free of dairy and refined sugar!

AIP Paleo Shepherd’s Pie (The Health Nut Mama)

Corned Beef Hash (Sugar and Soul) – Just make sure you get gluten-free corned beef. Beef is of course gluten-free, but sometimes corned beef has gluten ingredients.

Potato Jacket (The Organic Kitchen)

Irish Fish Chowder (Caroline’s Cooking) – This does include heavy cream, FYI, so it’s definitely not vegan

Slow Cooker Irish Lamb Stew (Cooking Chat)

Gluten-Free St. Patrick’s Day Food: Drinks

Sadly, Guinness isn’t gluten-free. Instead, check out these drinks:

Healthy Shamrock Shake (The Honor System) – Also vegan!

Irish Mule Cocktail (Sugar and Soul)

Sparkling Green Sangria (This Mama Cooks!)

Fresh Mint Chocolate Shake (Grateful Grazer)

Spiked Shamrock Shake (Mary’s Whole Life) – Also vegan!

Frosty Coconut Mint Green Tea Mocktail (Strength and Sunshine) – Also vegan!

Irish Coffee (The Spicy Apron)

    My favorite food for St. Patrick’s Day is Irish soda bread, and it’s great to see some gluten-free and even paleo versions of that on this list. I am also excited to try those vegan shamrock shakes. Yum!

Video: Kate runs a hand through her hair. White text reads “How I feel knowing that God gave me chronic health issues because I would be too powerful without them”. The audio says “cause I’m too messy and I’m too fuckin clean they told me to get a job”. Kate is a redheaded white woman wearing a green dress with white flowers on it, a black shawl, a silver Celtic knot necklace, and round tortoiseshell glasses

The most common question I get about sharing my ex The most common question I get about sharing my experience with chronic illness is "How do you deal with it?" These 3 quotes are sources of inspiration and indicative of how I do it. ⁣
⁣
1. "Guard your time fiercely. Be generous with it, but be intentional about it." - Davd Duchemin⁣
I am SO intentional with my time. Even when I (rarely) do spur-of-the-moment fun things, I'm doing mental calculations of how to make it happen. ⁣
⁣
2. "Find out who you are and do it on purpose." - Dolly Parton⁣
That's what my blog and advocacy work is. I figured out who I am: someone who helps other patients, who shares her story, who tries to change the world. And I'm doing it on purpose. ⁣
⁣
3. "For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but power, love, and self-discipline." - 2 Timothy 1:7 ⁣
I will be afraid some times (we all will) but my spirit is not one of fear or timidity. My spirt of power, love, and self-discipline enables me to keep fighting for myself and others. ⁣

"I realized recently that, big picture, this is the best my health has been since I got sick. When I got my infection in 2018 that impacted my whole body until 2023, I wasn’t diagnosed with one of my illnesses and 3 of my diagnosed ones weren’t controlled to the level they are now.⁣
So this year my quasi-resolution is being nice to myself and focusing more on thriving than existing. Because I can, for the first time maybe ever, thinking about thriving *and* existing."⁣
