You may be wondering, what is a hash anyway?
A hash is a dish of diced, ground or chopped meat and often times vegetables sautéed in a frying pan. We think it’s the perfect way to start the day when you’re in search of something savory, warm, satisfying, and hearty. Thanks to the well-balanced nature of this dish, it will keep your blood sugars stable all morning long, leaving you satisfied and ready to tackle the day. Making a hash is also the perfect opportunity to ‘clean out the fridge’ and use up what you have on hand. But if you’re looking for more guidance we have some additional hash recipes for you to try including Sweet Potato Hash with Bacon, Tex Mex Hash, Chicken Apple Sausage Sweet Potato Hash, and Brussels Sprouts Sweet Potato Sausage Hash.
