Cheaper than the store, October 31, 2010

Corned beef hash is way too pricey at the store, so this was a good alternative option. Even being the reduced fat version, I was impressed with the quality and taste of Hormel's brand.

This stuff is truly amazing...very tasty, indeed! The corned beef was tender and good flavored, without being too salty. The potatoes were billed as reconstituted, but I couldn't tell. Overall, the hash was quite light in texture, as advertised. I'm assuming that half a can is a serving...they're not saying. The stats in grams are pretty darned impressive: 3 saturated fat, 6 fiber, 15 protein, and 5 sugar. Try throwing a can of this hash into a large cast-iron skillet, add some diced pickled beets and yellow onion, and stir-fry with a ration of butter. Congrats, you've now made a fairly respectable "red-flannel hash"!

Great shelf life and you can make it so many different ways. It is great to have when we know there is a storm on the way here in Florida.
