They blend proteins and carbohydrates, offering that extra energy boost to stay warm and active during chilly months. Hash dishes are not only flavorful and fulfilling but also versatile—they make a fantastic choice for breakfast, lunch, or as a tasty side dish. They’re a great, budget-friendly, solution for the entire family, no matter the time of day.

Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 large onion
- 4 cups white potatoes, diced
- 1lb lean ground beef
- 2 tsp each: salt, garlic powder
- ½ tsp dried paprika
- 1 tsp dried parsley
- Shredded cheddar to top
Directions
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat, then add diced onions and potatoes.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes have softened enough to pierce easily. Cover with a lid to speed up the process, if needed.
- Add beef and spices and stir to combine.
- Continue cooking until beef is no longer pink and potatoes are fork tender.
- Top with a layer of shredded cheddar cheese, or mix in some ketchup.
You can add pre-boiled sliced mushrooms, diced zucchini, or whatever veggies you have on hand or need to use up. Be sure to add an extra ½ tsp of salt if adding more veggies. You can also pair your hash with a side of garlic bread, a fresh green salad, or a sunny-side-up egg for a delicious and well-balanced meal.
