Get your Irish on! With the luck of a shamrock’s petal we did it! Celebrate St. Patricks Day with your friends and family with GREEN PIZZA. We’re pretty sure that if you create this incredible pizza you’ll feel like you successfully followed the end of the rainbow and found the pot of gold. Lol, it’s so delicious! And it’s so easy! And so fun!

Using traditional Irish ingredients, we’ve created a pizza that you’ll definitely cheers too. The combination of corned beef, green cabbage and a smooth Dubliner cheese is outstanding. It’s unique fusion of flavour couldn’t be better to celebrate the luck of the Irish. Pour a green beer and get rolling out your green pizza dough. Tonight is all about green, fun and luck! Just be cautious those sneaky leprechauns don’t try and steal dinner. A pizza this good? They’ll surely try!

We didn’t use a regular tomatoe pizza sauce to spread over this green crust. Instead, we used our creamy Epic Garlic Sauce and added CUT Pesto. It’s flavours are so perfectly matched with the caramelized cabbage! Make sure to save a little extra for dipping the crust afterwards too. It’s so good!

The pizza crust? We made CUT Pizza Dough and simply dyed it green. The kids had such a laugh, they couldn’t believe they were eating GREEN pizza! We promise, this is such a fun option for every age. Pull out your green food coloring and celebrate.

Once you’ve got your sauce and pizza crust sorted, go ahead and begin to create the beer caramelized cabbage. You’ll use only 1 cup of gluten-free beer to make the pizza crust, so be sure and reserve the rest of the can for stewing the cabbage. Melt the butter, chop the cabbage and add the beer and spice. Let the Shenanigan’s begin!!

When the cabbage is caramelized, you’re ready to create your pizza! Roll out your crust, spread your sauce, grate the cheese and add the corned beef and cabbage. Your dinner luck is about to change. Irish pizza may just become a favourite…even the kids agreed the cabbage was alright! Lol. (And don’t worry about the beer – the alcohol cooks out as you caramelize.)

While the pizza is baking, pour yourself a green beer or mix up a shamrock shake. Celebrate St. Patricks Day right within your own kitchen! Cheers!
