4 servings

Waffles for dinner? Yes please! It’s always fun when you get to bust out the waffle maker—make it extra special with these savoury waffles, filled with smoky bacon, gooey cheese, and zesty green onions. Best served topped with chunks of leftover Rotisserie Chicken for a tasty take on the ever-so-popular chicken & waffles. Don’t forget a drizzle of maple syrup or a few dashes of hot sauce for that perfect “brinner” (that’s breakfast for dinner) experience!

Ingredients

  • 4 strips low-sodium bacon
  • 1 pkg Pancake & Waffle Mix
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup milk, your choice
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1 green onion
  • 1⁄4 cup shredded Tex-Mex cheese

Preparation

  1. Lay bacon over Multipurpose Tray in Multipurpose Steamer. Cover; microwave on high 4–5 min.
  2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk mix with egg, milk, and oil. Let batter rest 5 min; it will continue to thicken.
  3. Finely chop bacon and green onion. Fold chopped bacon, green onion, and cheese into batter.
  4. Cook waffles according to waffle maker instructions.
