There's so much more to St. Patrick's Day than shamrocks and beer. The holiday is most popular in Ireland — as St. Patrick is the patron saint of the Emerald Isle — but every March 17, it is celebrated in countries all over the world. It is an official Christian feast day and a celebration of Irish culture that includes festivities like parades, traditional foods, music, religious ceremonies, dancing and pretty much everything green.

When it comes to the holiday meal, meat and potatoes are the main attraction while greenery tends to play second fiddle. The most common offering is corned beef and cabbage, but all types of meaty stews (preferably those that incorporate a good amount of Guinness), starchy sides, leafy vegetables, breads, bacon, seafood and, of course, rich desserts, can all be part of a great St. Patrick's Day dinner.

With several time-honored traditional and modern contemporary dishes from Irish chefs and frequent TODAY guests Clodagh McKenna, Donal Skehan and Catherine Fulvio, these fun and flavorful recipes bring the luck and flavor of the Irish to the dinner table. They are great for a giant feast, intimate meal or filling family supper on St. Patrick's Day or, really, any day you're in need of a warming wintry meal.
