Ingredients

  • 2 cups broccoli florets, cooked and roughly chopped
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup diced onion
  • 1/4 cup diced bell pepper
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Cooking spray
  • 8 slices bacon
  • 4 eggs
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the cooked and chopped broccoli florets, shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, diced onion, diced bell pepper, beaten eggs, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.
  3. Spray the preheated waffle iron with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  4. Spoon about 1/3 cup of the broccoli cheese mixture onto the hot waffle iron and spread it out evenly. Close the waffle iron and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown and crispy.
  5. Repeat with the remaining broccoli cheese mixture, making sure to spray the waffle iron with cooking spray before each batch.
  6. While the waffles are cooking, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
  7. In the same skillet with the bacon grease, crack the eggs and cook them sunny-side-up until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Season with salt and pepper.
  8. To serve, place a waffle on a plate, top with 2 slices of cooked bacon, and a sunny-side-up egg. Repeat with the remaining waffles, bacon, and eggs.
  9. Enjoy your delicious Broccoli Cheese Veggie Tots Waffles with Bacon and Eggs!
