St. Patrick’s Day has always been a holiday that quickly arrives and passes for me. It whirls in with a whoosh of green t-shirts and drunken pubs (which I never go to) and leaves as fast as the Leprechaun that eludes as. But even though we might turn our milk green at breakfast, avoid the drunken parades and carry on with our day, I can’t go without some of that Irish fare. Sure, I may not be one for corned beef and cabbage, but Irish cream, soda bread, and bangers and mash are pretty tasty. This recipe has been updated, dashed with the South, and made into a one (okay, maybe two) pot wonder for your family!
Just what is a banger, you might ask? It’s a sausage! And mash? Simply mashed potatoes. A pretty basic meal overall, but add some southern spice, a favorite skillet and you’ve got something! After steaming your potato pieces in a microwaveable bowl, everything goes into the skillet and simmers together. The leftovers are absolutely fabulous!

I have never made Bangers and mash before. It looks so delicious i would love to try it. Maybe i will make this on St Patrick’s Day.
Traditional bangers and mash is a staple in my house. When we make it like this, we throw in come green beans, too. We just called this fried potatoes and sausage. lol We eat Irish food quite often, but more so in March when we celebrate St. Patrick’s Day and Irish American Heritage Month.
I just bought some Irish Bangers at the store the other day because I thought the name was funny, plus they’re sausages and I love those! This sounds like a super yummy recipe!
My mom made something similar when I was a kid. I wonder if my husband and kiddos would like it… I’m guessing they likely would. It sure pictures up pretty. π
Wow! What an amazing recipe. I would love to try this!
Oh man! This looks AMAZING! Off to add this recipe to my Pinterest board.
