Irish Funeral Sandwiches
This recipe for Irish Funeral Sandwiches popped up in my inbox. It's sort of - if an egg salad sandwich (my favorite sandwich!) met up with a club sandwich. I literally made it 10 minutes later and let me tell you it's absolutely delicious. Apparently, Irish funeral sandwiches have been a staple at wakes and funerals across Ireland to offer comfort and sustenance to mourners during a difficult time. While the specific ingredients can vary depending on regional preferences and the availability of local produce, the core elements of an Irish funeral sandwich typically include hard-boiled eggs, tomatoes, lettuce, sliced ham or chicken, lettuce, and mayonnaise all chopped up.

Seared Salmon with Blackberry-Wine Sauce

Grilled Cheesy Sausage Bread with Chimichurri
When you fire up your grill, you need to make this Grilled Cheesy Sausage Bread with Chimichurri. It’s delicious. You take a baguette, slice it down the middle lengthwise, hollow out some of the bread, and line it with cheese (I tried it with sliced brie on one side and mozzarella on the other, but you can use whatever kind you like), then cover it with Italian sausage. Grill it upside down to cook the sausage through. Serve with Chimichurri sauce and watch your guests go wild.

Corn Chowder with Miso and Scallions
This Corn Chowder with Miso and Scallions takes a fresh approach. Instead of relying on dairy for creaminess, the vegetables get puréed, which enhances the corn's sweetness and the potato's earthiness. The miso's rich umami flavor replaces the need for traditional ingredients like salt pork or chicken broth, resulting in a vegetarian-friendly yet deeply satisfying soup.
