How this recipe came to be:
Every year, without fail, we watch How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
Every. Single. Year.
It kind of became our official way of kicking off the Christmas season.
When our kids were little, naturally we'd watch with them.
But now that we're empty nesters, my husband and I still find ourselves in front of the television, mimicking every action and word, because we pretty much know the entire script and lyrics to all the songs by heart.
This year, however, when the Grinch stole that last can of who hash, I had an idea...
A wonderfully Grinchy idea!
If I can't buy Grinch Who Hash in the store, I'll make it instead!
This recipe is a great way to use leftover stuffing.
This year I had plenty of Pretzel Roll Stuffing leftover from Thanksgiving.
After watching the Grinch, I decided I'd incorporate some of those leftovers into the Who Hash and the results are simply amazing!
No leftovers? No problem!
Of course, you don't need to use leftovers to make Grinch Who Hash.
You can easily use a prepared box stuffing mix, and I'm certain the results will be just as delicious!
After all, WHO doesn't love boxed stuffing?! I know I do!!

"You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch. You really are a heel.
You're as cuddly as a cactus. You're as charming as an eel.
Mr. Grinch! You're a bad banana with a greasy black peel!"
"You're a monster, Mr. Grinch. Your heart's an empty hole.
Your brain is full of spiders. You've got garlic in your soul.
Mr. Grinch! I wouldn't touch you with a thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole!"
-Theodor Seuss Geisel
"You're a vile one, Mr. Grinch. You have termites in your smile. You have all the tender sweetness of a seasick crocodile."
"Mr. Grinch! Given the choice between the two of you, I'd take the seasick crocodile!"
"You're a rotter, Mr. Grinch. You're the king of sinful sots.
Your heart's a dead tomato splotched with moldy purple spots."
"Mr. Grinch! You're a three-decker sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce!"
-Theodor Seuss Geisel

We are going to try to serve this at school for Grinch Day. Do you know if your calorie count and nutrition facts includes the eggs? or is it just the Who Hash? Thank you
Renée says
Hello, Jessica!
The calorie count is without the eggs.
I hope the kids love this for Grinch day!
Have fun!!

Melissa says
What kind of flavored stuffing do you use? There were several types and I didn’t know what kind to get.
Renée says
Hi, Melissa!
You can choose whatever flavor sounds best to you. For the holidays I probably would choose herb with sage, but it really should be whatever one sounds best to you. Sometimes the grocery store gives TOO many options which makes shopping really hard. I know this doesn't help much, but again, when in doubt go with the herb one that has sage (if available). I hope this is a little helpful. Enjoy the recipe!
Merry Christmas,
Renee

My grandson is into The Grinch this year. He asked if I’d make him Who Hash! Breakfast for dinner tonight on this cold, rainy night in Northern California! We will be watching The Grinch with our tree lights on and eating The Who Hash! Special to not eat in the kitchen, this is what memories are made of! Thank you for the recipe!!

Dear Marcia,
You have no idea how much this warms my heart!
I don't think I could have heard of anything nicer.
I hope you and your grandson had a marvelously grinchy evening.
Merry Christmas to you and your family!
I so appreciate you being a part of my blog.
