    If 16 of the best vegan St. Patrick’s Day Irish recipes and Irish eats are your thing, read on.

    Collage of four recipes with text overlay of 16 authentic vegan st patrick days recipes

    Looking for green unicorn poop cupcakes or shamrock-shaped key lime pie with a side of quinoa for your vegan St. Patrick’s Day feast?

    Then head to another list because we’re aiming for nearly authentic Irish recipes here, for St. Patrick’s day or to enjoy year-round!

    The only reason they are “nearly” authentic is because I can’t think of a single Irish recipe that is vegan (and I’m Irish), so a few tweaks have been put in place.

    Out with the butter, milk, cream, and meat, in with the veggie goodness.

    From breakfast, before you go to watch the St. Patrick’s parade, to a big lunch before heading out to meet friends at the pub, and finally dinner and some fun treats, I’ve got your Paddy’s day covered.

    Which St.Patrick’s Day Meal?:

    Breakfast
    Lunch and Dinner
    Desserts


    And for drinks, beer, Guinness, stout, and lager are the drinks of choice at pubs around Ireland on St. Patrick’s day (all colored green and your teeth end up green as well!): Having said that a good vegan Baileys Irish cream or a boozy shamrock shake certainly wouldn’t go amiss…

    Breakfast

    Is St. Patrick’s day breakfast a thing, you ask? Yes, it is. The 17th of March is a national holiday in Ireland, so with plenty of time on our hands, a full Irish breakfast is just the ticket.

    Vegan sausages, fake bacon, grilled tomatoes, fried mushrooms, baked beans, boxty, toasted soda bread, or potato farls…Drool. Of course, you could always go for a healthier Irish breakfast and get some nutritious vegan porridge (oatmeal) into you.

    Irish Breakfast Recipes

    These delicious vegan Irish breakfast recipes are perfect for a big slap-up breakfast on St. Patrick's Day!

    Vegan Irish Soda Bread

    Crusty fresh vegan brown soda bread with the unmistakable rustic flavour that comes about when baking with bicarbonate of soda instead of yeast, you would be hard pressed to distinguish between regular soda bread and this vegan version, and no rising time!

    Easy Vegan Boxty (Irish Potato Pancakes)

    Beautifully crisp on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside and even better when cold, make this delicious vegan boxty for St. Patrick's day or any day!

    Healthy Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal on Stove Top

    Known in Ireland as porridge, this healthy gluten-free warm breakfast adds in some delicious typical Irish flavors such as apples and cinnamon.

    How to Make Tofu Scramble step-by-step

    No Irish breakfast would be complete without scrambled eggs and this easy vegan tofu scramble definitely hits the spot.

    Lunch and Dinner

    Some gorgeous traditional but vegan Irish recipes that will stick to your ribs and are perfect for your St. Patrick’s Day lunch or dinner.

    In Ireland, chances are high that you would also be soaking wet after being outside in the unpredictable March weather, so a hot meal is a must!

    Lunch and Dinner

    Check out these satisfying Irish lunch and dinner recipes! While normally, sandwiches, soups, and salads are our go-to meals for lunch, at the weekend and on holidays like St. Patrick's Day we like to switch it up and make a bit more effort!

    Easy Vegan Irish Stew with Guinness

    Rich savoury vegan Irish stew with chunks of seitan, potatoes, carrots and onion in a savoury brown gravy-like broth with plenty of body from Guinness.

    Herbed Tomato Bread

    This tasty tomato and herb bread comes together in 45 minutes, is vegan, and requires no rising time. Not a widely held traditional Irish food but SuperValu introduced it years ago and it's AMAZING.

    Irish dessert recipes are not that numerous, but make up for the lack of quantity with some tasty quality. A standard super easy Irish kids’ dessert is jelly and ice cream, easy enough to veganize these days!

    For more refined palates or for special occasions like St. Patrick’s day, break out your baking skills and serve the delicious traditional desserts below.

    Desserts

    No slap-up Irish meal would be complete without a good dessert, or also serve these delicious dishes as an indulgent snack alongside a cup of hot sweet tea. Pies and crumbles are usually heated up and served with custard or ice-cream (easily bought or made vegan nowadays).

    Vegan Gur Cake
