Enjoy this delicious start to the day with this Hearty Corned Beef Hash, packed with potatoes, peppers, onions and topped with cheese and an egg – you’ll look forward to this all week long!
It’s well documented that I love a good hearty breakfast, especially on weekends. Being able to use up leftovers is an added bonus! This particular hash is made from freshly shredded potatoes, freshly diced onion and peppers – it’s just the beef that is from leftovers! It reminds me very much of a dish we eat in New Zealand called “Bubble N Squeak” where you basically cook last night’s leftover mashed potatoes and meat in a pan with some vegetables (can vary from cabbage, carrots, parsnips). It’s kind of similar to Colcannon – which is eaten around St Patrick’s Day. What it is, is delicious.

I buy corned beef when it is on sale and either freeze it right then, or cook it, dice it and freeze in breakfast sized portions. This is just too yummy to only be eaten once a year! It is pretty easy to make, and takes around 15 minutes from start to finish. Just long enough to brew a pot of coffee and set the table. But don’t just think this is for breakfast – this is fabulous ANY time of day. How can you go wrong with this?!

This is one of those breakfasts that also translates well into dinners

Love, love this! My husband loves corned beef, but unfortunately, every time he eats it, he gets sick! So I’ll have to make this just for myself. 😉

I say “more for you”!

Bubble and squeak is what I remember as well. It was code in our house for using up the leftovers. Always delicious. The corn beef hash looks scrumptious.

I love corned beef hash… though I rarely actually make it! (I rarely have corned beef…) I really should get on that.
I like the cheese – never added that.

Never heard of Bubble N Squeak before but sure is a funny name : )) Sounds like a hearty breakfast!

It’s a New Zealand/British thing, I think. It’s yummy – but this hash is way better 🙂

Your pictures are beautiful!! I love the simplicity of this recipe. I feel we have a tendency to make everything so complicated with recipes and this one is great! Thanks for the recipe! I’ll be making this for sure!
Kylee
Thanks, Amanda! I’m a big believer in keeping things simple, but amazing!

I love that this recipe is way healthier than buying corned beef hash from a can. And probably has a lot less sodium as well. Love the extra veggies in it too!
