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 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!

FAQ: Have you tried [insert supplement here]? As FAQ: Have you tried [insert supplement here]?

As with all things, what’s true for me might not be true for others. I’m sure there are plenty of RA patients who do respond well to supplements; I’m just not one of them. 

Additionally, at one point, I refer to being on chemo since 2012. As always, the chemo I’m referring to is Rituxan, which is my RA treatment. I do not have cancer nor have I ever claimed to. 

Video: Kate talks to the camera. Text at the beginning reads “FAQ: Have you tried [insert supplement here]?” and other text later reads “*24” to correct when she says “symptoms for 21 years”. There are captions.

Week 19 of #2026Weekly I’m not going to lie - my Week 19 of #2026Weekly 

I’m not going to lie - my life now focuses even more on maintaining my body. Trying to avoid foot surgery + keep my bone density up so I don’t break another bone for a while on top of all the other things I do to manage my 10+ illnesses … it’s a lot of work. I did go to actual work this week lol but my camera roll is all chronic illness stuff this week. 

1️⃣ The machine that will hopefully prevent surgery!!! Every day, I do 40 minutes of this ultrasound machine (20 min on 1 fracture, 20 min on the other) and it will speed up healing 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 
2️⃣ Continuing my exercise routine per my endocrinologist. Up to 30 minutes of Pilates 4 days a week … and since I don’t do exercises requiring pressure on my feet, the cast comes off.

SHARING YOUR HEALTH EXPERIENCES PUBLICLY⁣⁣⁣ ⁣ I sh SHARING YOUR HEALTH EXPERIENCES PUBLICLY⁣⁣⁣
⁣
I share my personal health experiences online, which I find it somewhat easy to do because I've been talking publicly - albeit to a smaller audience - since my health problems started in 2001. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣
If you share something online, you need to be prepared for people to ask questions or argue with you. Should they? No. Will that stop them? Also do. ⁣
⁣
That's one of the reasons that talking online about what can be trauma is not easy or for everyone. That's why it's important to practice self-care and to consciously think about what you want to share online before you do it. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣
For example, I generally only talk publicly about a health situation once it has passed, especially if it's an emergency. I also make sure that I'm in a good place mentally before I talk about it. That way, I don't share things I'll regret sharing publicly later. It also helps me be less anxious about sharing these details.⁣⁣⁣
⁣
And I don't share everything! There's lot of stuff that I haven't talked about not only online but with people in real life. It might seem like I share everything I've experienced, but I don't. ⁣
