🥔 Simple Colcannon Potatoes (Inspired by a 1830's Recipe!)

These classic Irish Mashed Potatoes are creamy and packed with flavor from the sautéed green cabbage. Perfect for celebrating St. Patrick’s Day or as a pairing with any meal! Recently, I found a recipe for colcannon from 1830 that I used to form my ideas for this slightly modernized recipe. It's very close to the original, with just a slight change that I'm not baking it in a form at the end! The result is a super creamy mashed potatoes with pops of sautéed cabbage that pairs perfectly with roasted pork or beef! But no matter how you serve it, any potato lover is sure to enjoy this traditional rendition of Irish Colcannon. Here' s a few of our favorite things about these colcannon potatoes:
