What makes this recipe so easy and convenient?
It's super easy to make because it takes advantage of frozen hash brown potatoes, and deli-counter corned beef.
Or, even better...leftover corned beef (if you're lucky enough to have any)!
Once it's assembled all you need to do is pop it in the oven and then go about your business until the eggs are cooked through, golden brown, and the house smells amazing!
Serving suggestions:
You can serve this savory frittata for breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner.
If you're having it for dinner, serve it alongside this Healthy Berry Salad or maybe a delicious Heirloom Tomato Salad.
Variations for this recipe:
If you want to make this frittata more of a one-skillet meal, feel free to add some of your favorite veggies into the mix before you add the eggs.
You can either use fresh or frozen but if you use frozen vegetables make sure to thaw them first, just as you did the potatoes.
If you like cheese (and who doesn't), bake the frittata for 50 minutes, remove it from the oven, top with your favorite grated cheese, and then continue baking for the last 10 minutes to melt, and brown the cheese.
How long will it take to make corned beef hash frittata from start to finish?
Approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes.
About ten minutes of that time will be the preparation of sautéing of the onion and the hash brown potatoes in the skillet.
And it will take around 1 hour to bake the frittata in the oven until the eggs are set fully in the center of the frittata.
How to reheat a frittata:
I like to reheat slices of frittata in a low 325-degree Fahrenheit oven.
Wrap them well with aluminum foil and heat for 20 minutes.

Could this be made with canned corned beef hash? If so, how many cans do you think it would take? It sounds yummy! Thanks!
Renée says
Hi, Jan!
Sure, I don't see why not. Personally, I'd use two cans but if you want a more "eggy" frittata, then just use one.
I'd also cut back on the amount of frozen potatoes (or leave them out entirely) since the canned hash already has potatoes included.
Also, you can add extra corned beef (if desired), or just use what's already in the can.
I hope this is helpful.
Take good care,
Renee

This was the perfect recipe for my leftover corned beef! SO delicious!
Renée says
Yay! Thanks, Jillian!
Linda says
What a great idea for breakfast or even breakfast for dinner. I just made a simple corned beef hash in my Air Fryer but this one would be perfect for feeding a whole family. And so easy to make too. Will have to try it with some deli corned beef since our St Pats dinner is long gone. lol
Renée says
We hardly ever have leftover corned beef from St. Patrick's Day, either. Deli corned beef is always a great option for this dish.
Thanks, Linda!
