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!

I'm always amazed by how people can have the exact same illness or set of illnesses and still have different experiences. Sure, there will be similarities, but which symptoms are the worst, what medications you respond to, and your quality of life can vary significantly. ⁣
⁣
It doesn't mean that one person is necessarily worse off than another; they're just different.⁣

I don’t know the exact date of my RA diagnosis, bu I don’t know the exact date of my RA diagnosis, but this is from right around then in July 2010. ⁣
⁣
When I was diagnosed, I had been having symptoms for 9 years. ⁣
- 9 years of foot pain (partially from tarsal coalition)⁣
- Arthritic damage in said food⁣
- Carpal tunnel off and on for several years⁣
- And more⁣
⁣
I was finally diagnosed because I woke up one morning and was unable to open my jaw more than 8 mm. It turned out that I had horrible arthritic damage to my TMJs, which got me off the waiting list at MGH rheumatology. I left that appointment with an autoimmune arthritis diagnosis. ⁣
⁣
The fact that July is not only my diagnosis anniversary but also Juvenile Arthritis Awareness Month has always seemed right. I may not have been diagnosed with JA, but given the amount of arthritis I had along with my many years of symptoms, it's generally accepted that I had it. ⁣
⁣
This year marks 16 years since diagnosis and this fall marks 25 years since my symptoms started. It's pretty weird that so much time has already passed!⁣
