I’m always looking for ways to increase vegetables into our meals. I love this simple recipe that blends a traditional comfort food, mashed potatoes, with sautéed cabbage for a perfect side dish. This is an Irish dish, and today is St. Patricks’ Day but this yummy dish can be eaten year round. Perfect with corned beef, roast chicken or BBQ steak, enjoy.
