An Irish dish made from mashed potatoes mixed with shredded cabbage or kale, butter, and sometimes onions and milk.
Irish origin, combining the words for cabbage and white-headed (from Irish 'cal' = cabbage and 'ceannann' = white-headed), referring to the pale color of the mixed dish.
Colecannon shows up in Irish folklore as a Halloween treat, and in the 1800s, people would hide small charms in it—finding a ring meant marriage, a coin meant wealth, making it part magical practice and part delicious dinner!
