WAFFLE TACO WITH SPICY SAUSAGE AND HOT HONEY

Steps:

• Preheat a mini (4-inch) round waffle maker.
• Mix the waffle mix with 2 cups water and the vanilla paste until there are no more large lumps; do not overmix. Let the batter sit while you prepare the sausage and eggs.
• Cook the sausage in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, breaking the sausage into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until the sausage is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside to keep warm.
• Wipe out the skillet. Melt the butter in the skillet over medium-low heat. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, beat the eggs until smooth and evenly yellow. Add the cream and salt and pepper to taste and beat until well mixed. Add the eggs to the skillet and gently scramble. When the eggs are halfway done, sprinkle the cheese over the eggs, then stir to mix in and continue to cook until desired doneness, about 5 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl and keep warm.
• Cook the waffles, spreading 2 1/2 to 3 tablespoons batter into the waffle maker for each. Cook until the waffles are yellow, not golden, and still pliable, about 1 1/2 minutes per waffle. Transfer the waffles to a kitchen towel to steam and soften as done. (This should yield 16 to 20 waffles.)
• To assemble the waffle tacos, spoon about 2 tablespoons sausage, some crushed tortilla chips and 1 tablespoon eggs onto each waffle. Drizzle with the hot honey and serve immediately.

LOADED TACO WAFFLE FRIES

Steps:

• For the taco fries: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Spread the waffle fries out on a large rimmed baking sheet and bake, stirring once, until golden brown and crisp, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking up any clumps with a wooden spoon, until brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the taco seasoning, then add 1/4 cup water and simmer until the liquid evaporates, about 2 minutes.
• Transfer the waffle fries to a large plate. Mound the beef in the middle, then sprinkle the cheese, lettuce, beans, jalapenos, olives, tomatoes and avocado over the top. Dollop with sour cream.
• For the creamy hot sauce: Mix together the mayonnaise, yellow mustard and hot sauce in a small bowl. Drizzle over the top and serve.

BONUS WAFFLE RECIPE: WAFFLE TACO SHELL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Lay the waffle flat on a clean, dry surface. Use a rolling pin to flatten the waffle as much as possible.
• Very carefully hang the waffle over one grate of an oven rack, so it resembles the shape of an upside-down taco.
• Bake it until crispy and firm, about 5 minutes. Carefully remove the waffle taco shell, and stuff it with breakfasty taco items such as egg whites, light cheese, lean sausage crumbles, cilantro, and salsa!

CHICKEN 'N WAFFLE TACOS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400ºF.
• Coat chicken with coating mix as directed on package; place on baking sheet. Bake 12 to 15 min. or until done.
• Meanwhile, spray both sides of waffles with cooking spray. Gently fold each in half; secure with wooden toothpick. Place on separate baking sheet. Add to oven to bake with chicken for the last 8 min. Mix syrup, barbecue sauce and Sriracha sauce until blended.
• Remove toothpicks from waffles. Place chicken strips in waffle shells; top with syrup mixture and onions.

CHICKEN AND WAFFLE TACOS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Marinate the chicken: In a medium bowl, combine the chicken tenders, buttermilk, 1 tablespoon salt, McCormick® Smoked Paprika, McCormick® Chili Powder, 1 tablespoon McCormick® Onion Powder, and 1 tablespoon McCormick® Garlic Powder. Mix until the chicken is well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, up to overnight.
• Make the slaw: In a medium bowl, toss together the red and green cabbage, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes.
• Make the waffles: Preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Preheat the oven to 200°F (95°C).
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the waffle mix, water, and melted butter until smooth.
• Ladle the batter into the waffle iron and cook until golden brown. Remove and cut the waffle in half. Repeat with the remaining batter; you should have 4 full waffles. Keep warm in the oven until ready to serve.
• Fry the chicken: Fill a medium pot halfway with vegetable oil. Heat over medium heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C).
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 teaspoons salt, 2 teaspoons McCormick® Onion Powder, 2 teaspoons McCormick® Garlic Powder, the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and black pepper.
• In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until smooth.
• Remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator. Toss the tenders in the flour mixture until fully coated. Coat in the egg mixture, then again in the flour mixture.
• Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot, fry the chicken in the hot oil until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C), about 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Add the Frank's® RedHot® sauce to a medium bowl. Toss the chicken in the sauce until fully coated.
• Assemble the tacos: Place a chicken tender on a waffle half. Top with the slaw, green onions, and a drizzle of maple syrup. Secure with a skewer, then repeat with the remaining ingredients. Serve warm.
• Enjoy!
