Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to a gentle 200°F (95°C) to keep your waffles warm while you prepare the rest of the dish. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

Preheat a 6- to 7-inch waffle iron to medium-high heat. Generously coat both the top and bottom plates with cooking spray to prevent sticking. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

03

Step

Once the waffle iron is hot, carefully open it and arrange the thawed Veggie Tots in a single layer, ensuring they touch each other to create a cohesive waffle. Close the iron and press firmly. Cook for approximately 5 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown and crispy. (Cook time: 5 minutes)

04

Step

Gently remove the cooked waffle from the iron and place it on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. Transfer to the preheated oven to keep warm while you repeat the process with the remaining Veggie Tots to create a second waffle. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

05

Step

While the second waffle is cooking, prepare the fried eggs. Crack the eggs into a nonstick skillet set over medium heat. Cook until the outer edges of the whites begin to set, about 1 minute. Cover the skillet, reduce the heat to low, and continue cooking until the whites are completely set but the yolks are still runny, about 4 minutes. (Cook time: 5 minutes)

06

Step

Cut each waffle in half. To serve, top each waffle half with 2 slices of crispy bacon and 1 perfectly fried egg. Garnish with thinly sliced scallions and a dash of hot sauce, if desired, for an extra kick. (Prep time: 3 minutes)

For extra crispy waffles, consider lightly pan-frying the cooked waffles in a bit of butter before serving.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese tots or add other vegetables like diced bell peppers or onions to the waffle batter.
If you don't have a waffle iron, you can also bake the veggie tots in a single layer on a baking sheet until golden brown and crispy.
Adjust the cooking time for the eggs to your preference – whether you like them sunny-side up, over easy, or fully cooked.
