In Mr. Food today... It's St. Patrick's Day, and Mr. Food is taking a tasty trip down memory lane to the Emerald Isle.!With today being St. Patrick's Day, I couldn't help but recall my tasty trip to Ireland. What a time we had! It was one of my favorite vacation destinations ever! The history, the food, the scenery and, most of all, the people were incredible! It seems like just yesterday we were visiting the stunning castles where we were treated like royalty and ate like kings and queens! We even discovered the birthplace of traditional Irish coffee at Foynes Flying Boat Museum in Limerick! Was that ever good! And, of course, we visited a lot of traditional Irish pubs where I learned not only how to pour a Guinness properly, but I was actually shown how to do the Irish jig! And those dancers were amazing! And with today being St. Patrick's Day, I figured it would only be appropriate to serve up an all-American favorite dessert with a bit of Irish flair. Watch: We've simply chopped up some mint candies, placed them in a bowl, then mixed in some softened vanilla ice cream, a bit of crme de menthe and a few drops of green food coloring. We then spooned that into a chocolate graham cracker pie crust and garnished it with whipped cream and more mint candies! That's it! Then, after it firms up in the freezer, we've got a creamy, melt-in-your-mouth dessert that'll have everyone's eyes a-smilin' whether they're Irish or not! The recipe for "Minty Ice Cream Pie" is online now, along with some bonus recipes. And don't worry, if you're already celebrating St. Patty's Day, there's always another day to make this and enjoy the "OOH IT'S SO GOOD!! (R) "
