Get a warm, hearty start to your morning with these South of the Border Corned Beef Hash Breakfast Burritos.
Thank you to Hormel® for sponsoring this post.
With three of my guys on the team, back to school time for us also meant the beginning of water polo season. The training and conditioning began weeks before school was in session and then really heated up that first week of school.
The appetite of a water polo player is like nothing most people have seen. Ask the mom of any polo player and they will confirm this for you. They are fuel burning monsters and it’s a pretty amazing thing to witness. I had to be very careful about my meal planning and be sure to include enough protein rich dishes to keep that fire burning. These South of the Border Corned Beef Hash Breakfast Burritos are a great protein-rich, family-friendly way to start the day, both for yourself and your fuel burning kiddos.
I did breakfast burritos frequently on those early mornings when we had to rustle the boys out of bed at 6am and head to a tournament. They make the perfect travel food – wrap them in foil while they are warm and pack them up for a meal on the go.
Whether it’s an early morning trek to a tournament with your kids or your own commute to work in the morning, these tasty burritos will hit the spot!
These burritos are incredibly simple to pull together with the help of Hormel Mary Kitchen® Corned Beef Hash. With just a few simple ingredients, you’re minutes away from a warm, satisfying breakfast.
When cooking the hash, I get the best results with a cast iron skillet. It gives it that nice crispy edge. See the printable recipe below for all the details.
For the scrambled eggs, I added a couple tablespoons of light sour cream and some finely chopped green onion.
The sour cream makes them really fluffy and delicious.
Layer the ingredients on a flour tortilla – the cooked corned beef hash, fluffy scrambled eggs, avocado, shredded Monterey Jack and sharp cheddar cheese, and hot sauce or salsa of your choice. Add or substitute any ingredients your family loves!
Roll them tightly and wrap them in foil while they are warm. They are easy to pack up to go or keep them stocked in your refrigerator to reheat in the microwave for a quick breakfast.
I always put out some sour cream for dipping and of course, my guys love their hot sauce.

I missed out on doing a traditional corned beef and cabbage dinner this St. Patrick’s Day … and realized those usual fixings would make one Dynamite burrito. So fun to find that it is already fueling the next gen! THANKS for the delicious recipe !
Fantastic burrito recipe. I like it because it doesn’t try to overdo the ingredients. I doubled the recipe except for the hash and made half with leftover chopped smoked brisket and drained hatch green chilies. I did leave out the avocado since I froze all but two. Warmed those two today in a 270deg oven wrapped in foil. So good!!
This recipe is a keeper for sure.
I liked it better than sausage or bacon breakfast burritos. Will definitely make it again.
Luv it! Such a great recipe, thank you!
This is a great spicy burrito recipe. I will definitely try it next week.
What a fun easy breakfast…my kids don’t play water polo, but cross country and volleyball turn my kids into ravenous beasts too. It is almost impossible to get enough calories into kids. I can’t wait to make these for my kids this week 🙂
My husband would LOVE this! He’s a huge hash fan!
This is such a great quick and yummy looking breakfast! And so much healthier than the usual sweet stuff. 🙂
I don’t have water polo players, but I do have xc and soccer players and they are constantly eating too. I can’t seem to keep enough food in the house for them! This looks like a great hearty breakfast and a good way to start the day since that afternoon meal has to be lighter because of practice.
What a hearty breakfast burrito!
