The recipe that I am sharing starts off with you frying up diced bacon until crisp.  Set that aside.  We will get back to it but for right now it is the drippings that you are after. Use those drippings to coat your waffle iron and then lay your thawed tater tots over the iron.   Seal and cook.

When those potatoes are all nice and crispy, you have the basis for any kind of brinner you want to create.  I added the works to mine.  Cheese, Sour Cream, Bacon.....soooooo good.

Frank and the Teen went with the cheese and bacon but added eggs to theirs.  Also very delicious.  I think next time I make these I am going to make up some sausage gravy to pour over the top.  My stomach just grumbled very loudly at that thought.

However you decide to top them, these crispy crunchy tater tot waffles make a perfect breakfast, brunch or brinner.  Enjoy.
