I love the addition of bacon to this colcannon recipe. It gives the dish a smoky and savory flavor.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my colcannon turned out mushy. The potatoes were overcooked and the cabbage was limp.

The colcannon was good, but I found it to be a bit too heavy. I think I would have preferred it if it had been made with less butter and cream.

This colcannon was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some additional seasonings, such as garlic, onion, or black pepper.

I'm not a huge fan of cabbage, but I really enjoyed this colcannon. The potatoes and bacon were cooked perfectly, and the cabbage was surprisingly tender and flavorful. I'll definitely be making this again.

This was my first time making colcannon, and it turned out great! I used Yukon Gold potatoes, and they were so fluffy and creamy. I also added some chopped carrots and parsnips to the cabbage, which gave the dish a nice sweetness. Definitely a keeper

I've made this colcannon recipe several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of potatoes, cabbage, and bacon is just perfect. I like to add a little extra butter and cream to the potatoes to make them extra creamy.
