St. Patrick's Magic Irish Pie #RSC

Submitted by GallopinGourmetSoul

"Ready, Set, Cook! Reynolds Wrap Contest Entry. Some Irish dishes can be bland and boring, but not mine. This recipe will tickle your tastebuds, and it's oozing with flavor. This is my husband's favorite Irish recipe, and it will be yours too. It was inspired by my love for my husband's Irish and Scottish roots. My husband, Patrick, was born on St. Patrick's Day. So we always have a big celebration on his birthday. I always line my baking dishes with Reynolds Wrap which is my go to tool in the kitchen because it always makes clean up a breeze. I'm the microwave Diva in the kitchen, but a Diva nonetheless, I cook my chopped and peeled potatoes in a bowl of water in the microwave because it less dishes to clean up. I like to use Black Angus Grass Fed Beef because it taste better and is better for you. But use whatever you have."
