Hash Brown Waffles with Egg, Bacon and Cheese

We were camping this weekend and I wanted to make something special for breakfast. So why not make waffles out of hash browns, add eggs and some bacon.

I could put all the things I like into one dish. Sounds like a plan to me.

I used turkey bacon but as you might know, it is a little chewy, which made it a little difficult to eat with the rest of the ingredients. I pulled it out and ate it separately. I think regular bacon would be easier to eat with the rest of the ingredients. Will try that the next time.

Once again, I like recipes that you can make your own. Add some chives, or my husband's favorite - hot sauce. Enjoy!
