Breakfast is my favorite meal to eat but often times one of my least favorite meals to make. While I love the idea of being a morning person I fully admit that I have the hardest time dragging myself out of bed in the mornings, and while I know that making myself something to eat as soon as I start my day is definitely helpful – I struggle with it more often than not.
Which is a big reason why I’m a proponent of breakfasts that are often times better when made ahead of time, like Overnight Oats or in this case, Sweet Potato Breakfast Hash.
Hormel® Mary Kitchen Corned Beef Hash is the perfect staple for your breakfast or brunch recipe, making it easy and convenient to make a hearty meal for your family.
One of my biggest hang-ups with quick and easy breakfasts is that they tend to be carb heavy, and the traditional carbs used in breakfast options aren’t the kind of carbs I prefer to load up on. Sweet potatoes on the other hand, the perfect alternative to carbo-load whether I’m gearing up for a long run on the weekend, or tackling a lengthy to-do list, and the addition of Hormel® Mary Kitchen Corned Beef Hash adds the perfect amount of protein to jumpstart the day.
And better yet, the actual hash can be made whipped up a few days ahead of time. Which means when you’re ready to eat all that’s required of you is to pre-heat the oven, crack a few eggs in your baking dish, and wait for the eggs to fully cook. All in all, the actual cooking process on mornings like that is 10-12 minutes – just enough time to brew yourself some coffee, check your emails, and get ready to enjoy your breakfast.
