ST. PATRICK’S DAY SNACK TRAY

St. Patricks day food

It’s almost St. Patrick’s Day!  Are you celebrating this year?  Whether we’re traveling to Ireland or creating a festive Irish-inspired recipe, we always have lots of fun celebrating the day!  With traveling and home projects it seems like we’ve been eating heavier meals lately, so I thought I would lighten things up this year and celebrate the day with this yummy St. Patrick’s Day snack tray.

Complete with a savory pesto parmesan vegetable dip this snack tray is the perfect mix of sweet, salty, and savory!  You can throw this snack tray together in a short amount of time, and it was lots of fun arranging the rainbow, clover, and other fruits and vegetables.

I love putting together snack trays and cheese and charcuterie boards, it’s a fun way to eat, and not just for entertaining… we often make it our dinner!  All you’ll need is a food safe cutting or serving board, I’m using this one here, and your own creativity.  The sky’s the limit!

To celebrate Saint Paddy’s day I usually make Guinness Stew with White Cheddar Mashed Potatoesand we’re definitely adding this snack tray to our yearly celebration!   The pesto parmesan dip was my favorite part and it’s green!!  Feel free to double it… it’s that good!
