Description
Making filling hamburger hash always feels like returning to basics in the best way.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Start by heating olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. As the oil warms, you might notice that familiar anticipation—the kind that comes with knowing something hearty is about to take shape.
- Add the diced potatoes first. Let them cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and turn golden. This step takes a little patience, but it is worth it. The crispy edges on the potatoes give the hash its signature texture.
- Next, stir in the diced onion. As it cooks, the kitchen fills with that comforting aroma that signals a home-cooked meal is underway.
- Push the potatoes and onions to one side of the skillet and add the ground beef. Break it apart with a spoon and cook until browned. Once fully cooked, mix everything together so the flavors start to blend.
- Sprinkle in the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well, making sure every bite gets seasoned. Add the frozen vegetables and cook for a few more minutes until heated through.
- Finally, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top. Cover the skillet briefly to let the cheese melt into a rich, gooey layer that ties everything together.
- Serve your filling hamburger hash hot, straight from the skillet, just like it has been done for generations.

- This recipe is great for family gatherings or a comforting weeknight dinner.
