Ingredients

  • cooking spray

  • 2 (14 ounce) packages Green Giant® Veggie Tots Broccoli & Cheese, thawed

  • 4 large eggs

  • 8 slices cooked bacon (about 10 ounces)

  • 1 tablespoon Thinly sliced scallions for garnish

  • 1 teaspoon Hot sauce

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).

  2. Heat a 6- to 7-inch waffle iron to medium-high heat. Spray liberally with cooking spray. When ready, open and arrange the Veggie Tots, touching each other, to fill the iron. Close and press firmly. Cook 5 minutes.

  3. Remove and place on a wire rack over a sheet tray. Hold warm in the oven. Repeat to make a second waffle.

  4. Crack eggs into a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook until outer edges become opaque, about 1 minute. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until whites are completely set, about 4 minutes.

  5. Cut each waffle in half. Serve each half topped with 2 slices of bacon and 1 fried egg. Garnish with scallions and hot sauce, if desired.

Cook's Note:

Thaw veggie tots on the counter for 1 hour before cooking, or place them in the refrigerator in the morning to thaw by dinnertime.
