Pot o' Gold Soup

Jump to Recipe

Nothing says St. Patrick’s Day celebration recovery than a bowl of Pot o’ Gold Soup. This hearty, cheesy and soul-warming creamy soup is also the best way to give your St. Patrick’s Day leftovers a second life.  
 
With every spoonful, you’ll taste the comforting richness of aged white cheddar, the heartiness of potatoes and the savory notes of corned beef. This dish is also infused with lager during the cooking process, bringing a subtle malty depth to the recipe that enhances its rustic charm.  

Vegetables like sautéed onions, carrots and celery are simmered with potatoes that break down to release a naturally creamy texture. Aged white cheddar melts seamlessly into the broth. Tender pieces of corned beef and cabbage lend a balance of savory richness and freshness.
