Tater Tot Waffles

Like tater tots and waffles? Why not combine two great food creations into one fabulous idea 🤔 Tater tot waffles!!! Perfect for any meal! Build your next eggs benedict on one in place of the English muffin. How about a lunchtime sandwich? Steak salad on top of a waffle instead of with the fries? Or like I did, with chicken, cheese, and veggies in a savory sauce. Flavor them anyway u like. The possibilities are endless! Even good with strawberry jam 😋

2lbs russet potatoes
Salt
Pepper
2 Tablespoons white flour
Seasonings of your choice--I used onion powder, chives, chopped jalapeno, and a little shredded cheese
Oil of choice--I used olive

Peel the potatoes and cut into 1" chunks. Put them in the bowl of a food processor with some salt and pulse to a fine rough chop (1/8 to 1/4" pieces). Pour on to a kitchen towel. Roll the towel up and twist it to squeeze as much liquid out of the potatoes as u can. Empty the potatoes into a bowl and microwave for about 2 minutes on high, stirring once halfway through. U want them partially cooked. Stir them again when done, and allow to cool for a couple of minutes. Add some salt and pepper, the flour, and your seasonings of choice. Stir to combine.

Heat up your waffle iron and brush it with oil. Put about 1 cup of the mixture on the hot iron, spread it evenly, and press the lid closed. Cook the waffle until crunchy and browned. Remove to a plate and keep warm in the oven on 200 degrees while u finish cooking the rest.

Use tater tots waffles as a base to build your meal upon. This time I cooked some chicken breast in a flavorful broth, added some frozen corn and broccoli, cream cheese, and shredded fiesta cheese and poured it on top. A little cottage cheese and dilly beans finished the plate. Delicioso! Next time, Pulled Pork 😋

I hope u enjoy my tater tots waffles 😁 Please vote for me in the Potato Challenge!
