Colcannon (Irish Mashed Potatoes)

Colcannon (Irish Mashed Potatoes)

Table of Contents

    St. Patrick's Day is the perfect excuse to bring a little Irish comfort food to the table — and this year, I wanted to share some recipes that are just as festive but actually good for you.

    This Colcannon is one of my favorites. I stirred my Roasted Rosemary Chicken Bone Broth Powder right into the mash and folded in some sauerkraut, and honestly it couldn't be easier. The bone broth supports your gut lining with collagen and amino acids, and the kraut brings the probiotics.  Same creamy, satisfying potatoes you love — just a whole lot healthier.

    Serves: 6-8 Prep time: 15 minutes Cook time: 30 minutes

    Ingredients: 

    2 C. baby yellow potatoes (or 2 C Yukon gold or Russet potatoes, cubed)

    1 C. cabbage, thinly sliced

    ½ yellow onion, chopped 

    1 leek, chopped

    1 C. sauerkraut

    2 TBSP. Dr. Kellyann Roasted Rosemary Chicken Bone Broth Powder

    1 tsp. sea salt 

    1/4 tsp. black pepper

    4 TBSP. ghee

    2 TBSP. parsley

    Directions:

    In a large pot over the stove, boil 6-8 C of water, or enough to be about 2 inches from the top of the pot.

    When boiling, add the potatoes, cabbage, onion, and leek to the water and cook until the potatoes are soft. You should be able to easily pierce the potatoes with a fork (about 15-20 minutes). 

    Strain everything and place it into a mixing bowl. 

    Add ghee, seasonings, kraut, and parsley, then mash everything until well combined. For a creamier mixture, blend with an immersion blender until smooth.

    Serve garnished with extra parsley and a sprinkle of sea salt.
