Because yesterday was a 12-hour day, I had neither the energy not the emotional wherewithal to prepare supper last night. I simply grabbed what was available: a hunk of cheese and another hunk of gluten-free Irish soda bread from the Silly Yak in Madison, Wis.
On St. Patrick's Day, I try to find small ways to mark the Irish side of my ancestry, but the bread above is actually French; that is, the photo is from a street market in Cahors. Doesn't it look delectable?
Want a recipe that's Irish and healthy? Check out the colcannon at http://christinecooks.blogspot.com/2010/03/cauliflower-turnips-leeks-garlic-savoy.html. I can highly recommend the Irish soda bread at http://www.freshglutenfree.net/.
I am often inspired by Christine, and it was her redesign of her own blog that prompted me to get moving on this one.

My goodness, the color of that bread is amazing! Now I'll have to think of a few soups to go with it.
Looks scrumptious. Happy St. Patrick's Day. :)
Thanks Lydia and Bella - we thought that was lovely. Tasted good, too.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Same to you, Pam. We had temps in the 60s where I live, a rare St. Patrick's Day. The rest of March will be much cooler.
Beautiful color, I can imagine how delicious the taste is, yum! ~LeslieMichele
The taste was subtle, as we think a loaf of bread should be. It was good with egg salad, which we often make while in France. We love French mayonnaise and alway add a bit of aioli.
This will not really work, I suppose this way.
