Loaded Hash Browns

These loaded hash browns combine two of the most beloved breakfast items: hash browns and waffles. First, potatoes are shredded and combined with diced red pepper and onion, green onions, shredded cheese, and plenty of seasoning. Then the savory mixture is loaded into a waffle iron and pressed into glorious waffle form. Top these with anything you want – we suggest vegan sour cream, salsa, bacon bits, and extra green onions. Yum!
