Colcannon Soup



Have you ever had colcannon? It’s a traditional Irish dish of mashed potatoes, with chopped kale or cabbage mixed in, and a nob of butter on top. Delicious!

With most of the country enduring freezing temperatures right now we thought, why not make a hearty, belly-warming colcannon potato soup? All the great flavors of colcannon, in soup form.

There’s butter, there’s cream, there’re potatoes, kale, and cabbage, and stock to make it a soup.

Best potato soup EVER. Granted, it will not win any beauty contests (I tried to make it look pretty, honest I did). But this soup will fill you up, warm you up, and make you happy.

Stay warm friends! And send some that snow our way!
