Eagles to host corned beef and cabbage dinner

Love corned beef and cabbage, but don't feel like cooking?
The Monroe Eagles Club is preparing the dinner with all the trimmings as a charity fundraiser Saturday evening, the night before St. Patrick's Day.
Starting at 4 p.m., Dan Lemay, former owner of Papa Mia's in Monroe, will serve the traditional Irish meal.
The event is open to the public; one need not be a member of the Eagles to dine that evening.
The meal will include corned beef, cabbage, red potatoes and Dan's own mustard sauce, which his wife, Michol Philips of American Family Insurance in Monroe, calls "wonderful."
LeMay shared his sauce recipe with the Monitor, see below.
The Eagles Club expects about 70 people to come in during the four-hour event. There will be music provided by a DJ starting at 8 p.m.
