St. Patrick's Day is the prefect time to serve a traditional Corned Beef and Cabbage Dinner! I must admit, this was not a common dinner in my house while growing up...so I had never even tried corned beef until I got married and my husband made it for dinner one night. We now make this a few times a year and it is always a big hit with everyone!
