Here's everything you need for this mouthwatering tater tot waffle grilled cheese.
Ingredients to Gather
2 pounds frozen tater tots
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4-6 slices bacon, cooked
1 large jalapeño, deseeded and coarsely chopped
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
Directions:
Preheat waffle iron to high.
Cook tater tots about 4 minutes in the microwave, until soft. Create an even layer with the tater tots in the waffle iron, making sure to pack them in to fit as many as you can. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
Close the iron, cooking the tater tots until crispy, about 8-10 minutes.
Remove the waffle and place on a cooling rack, and then use the remaining tater tots and salt to make a second waffle. When it's done, leave it in the waffle iron and sprinkle half the cheese, bacon, and jalapeno evenly on top of it. Place the first grilled cheese back on the waffle iron on top of the second grilled cheese, and then sprinkle it with the rest of the cheese, bacon, and jalapeno. Close the waffle iron gently, taking care not to smash the sandwich, and then cook until the cheese melts about 2 minutes. Remove from the waffle iron, place on a plate, and then serve.
