Grandma McAndrews' Irish Soda Bread
This is not the dark bread you see in every restaurant in Dublin or Galway these days but I promise, it's authentic Irish Soda Bread, exactly how my late Irish grandma made it. Serve warm or cold with butter. This freezes great. I've made several loaves before St. Patrick's Day, or family parties. I freeze them, take them out the morning they're needed and warm up in a hot oven for 5 -7 minutes before serving.
Grandma's Butter Noodles
We call these grandma noodles though this is my late mother-in-law's recipe — her favorite for flavor and because they don't spring back when you roll them. At every family gathering, she'd make the best chicken and noodles, dropping her prepared noodles into homemade chicken broth along with shredded cooked chicken, then serve them over mashed potatoes. I've made them many times and everyone loves them. When making multiple batches, and lacking counter space, I hang the rounds on clean plastic hangers to dry.
Loaded Waffle Fries
These loaded waffle fries are topped with all of your favorite bacon cheeseburger fixings—burger-seasoned beef, Cheddar, bacon, and all the right condiments. This serves 2 as a main dish or 6 for a game day snack. If you cannot find Worcestershire pub burger seasoning, just use Montreal steak seasoning.
