Quick and Easy Corned Beef Hash Recipe

I had some leftover corned beef in the refrigerator that was too much for one person to eat and a bit too little to reheat and serve by itself for dinner. I also had a few potatoes in the pantry that I needed to use and decided to get these two crazy kids together and made corned beef hash for dinner!

Hickory Farms Giveaway

As a foodie, I love a good Christmas food gift.

Crazy, I know.

Usually that food gift comes in the form of a gift basket.  Fruit gift baskets, cheese gift baskets, wine gift baskets  – it doesn’t matter. If it contains food, I like getting them and I like giving them as holiday gifts.

Those little meat and cheese gift baskets have a special place in my heart because we always got at least one Hickory Farms gift basket from out of state family for the holidays when I was a kid. It just didn't seem like Christmas until we broke open a roll of summer sausage.

I carried on the Hickory Farms gift basket tradition as an adult because it is such a simple gift to find, give, and ship to out of state family. Hickory Farms is an Ohio company (shopping local. Oh yeah!) but are easy to find with over 700 holiday stores and kiosks across North America

Truthfully, I take the lazy way out and place my orders through Hickoryfarms.com that way I don’t have to deal paying extra to ship the gift after I get it. Hickory Farms does that for me. Especially when it comes to family in military because the Home for the Holidays Gift Box has free shipping to APO/FPO military addresses.



A few of my other Hickory Farm Favorites are:

The Party Planner Gift Box that supports Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry Campaign. Hickory Farms will donate $5.00 Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry Campaign with each Party Planner Gift Box sold this year.


The Family Favorites box is perfect for small families like mine.



If you are looking for an extra gifty thing to go with your gift basket, The Pack and Go Picnic Tote is amazingly useful. I have a similar insulated tote bag I use for frozen and refrigerated food when grocery shopping. Last summer Husband and I used it as a picnic basket to a music festival instead of our basket and like it so much we may not be going back to the wicker basket.


  
I also like the Tastes of the Trade Tool Bag because this type of tool tote is more practical for me than my hard sided toolboxes. Although I am a little peeved Hickory Farms markets it as a gift for men who use tools instead of people who use tools (says the lady with the DIY blog.) On the other hand, most of the time I buy Hickory Farms for a guy on my gift list so there’s that. They know their audience.


Do you want to win a Hickory Farms gift basket? Of course you do! Read on.

favorite Christmas memory is from when I was a child. My mom would always pin curl her own hair and then do mine and my sister's hair. All of our Christmas morning photos are of us with those silly bobby pins in our hair!
would love to win!

My favorite holiday memory is making Christmas cookies with my mom. She was making the frosting and dropped the whole package of powdered sugar into the mixer while it was on. It exploded all over the kitchen and we had a huge powdered sugar fight. So. Much. Fun. Of course we had to clean it up to, but I only remember the fun and seeing my mom covered in sugar from head to toe.
my youngest was born just a couple of weeks before christmas just two years ago! it was such a special time to have a new little one in our lives and celebrate with family at the same time!

Christmas time when I was in elementary school - all the holiday music, choir practice, plays, crafts, and the general excitement leading up to holiday vacation.

Stringing cranberries and popcorn for our tree and then hanging it outside for the birds after we took the tree down. More than a few popcorn fights started that way :)
