Start Your Day Feeling Satisfied with Corned Beef Hash

Springtime can feel like a bit of a frenzy, can’t it? It’s full of beauty and excitement as dreary February is washed away and we look forward to starting fresh and feeling some sun on our faces. It also has the potential to be slightly overwhelming when you get out your to-do list for spring cleaning, projects, yard work, and not to mention the usual work, school, and sports schedules of your family. It’s a lot to coordinate, especially for moms who tend to carry much of the load when it comes to our family’s scheduling and meals. One of the best improvements we can make as we welcome this new season, is to ensure that you and your family have a hearty breakfast to fuel your day. Things tend to move a little faster as we make our way out of our wintry slumber, but we can’t move too fast if we don’t start our day with food that will sustain us!

It’s not just our kids that need a healthy breakfast. I’m sure most of us moms would agree that we often put our own needs on the back burner to make sure our growing kiddos have everything they need. That’s why it’s so important to find recipes that everyone in your house will enjoy and benefit from. This corned beef hash will give you and your family the boost of energy that you need to hit the day running, and it’s also delicious, hearty, and fresh! We don’t always think of beef when it comes to breakfast but adding it to a hash is a brilliant way to increase our protein intake.

Corned Beef Hash

Ingredients:

12 ounces cooked corned beef or thickly sliced deli corned beef, sliced into ¼ inch cubes.
1 to 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 cups cubed potatoes (such as red-skinned, baking or sweet potatoes)
2 medium leeks, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
Fried or poached eggs (optional)

Directions:

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Stir in potatoes, leeks and garlic salt. Cover and cook 12 to 16 minutes or until potatoes and leeks are tender, stirring occasionally. Remove cover and continue to cook 3 to 5 or until potatoes begin to brown, stirring occasionally and adding remaining 1 tablespoon oil to prevent sticking, if needed.
Add corned beef to skillet. Continue to cook 2 to 3 minutes or until beef is heated through. Serve hash with fried or poached egg, if desired.
