Toastada Waffles

I found this recipe and thought it sounded like so much fun! I just had to try it... it was so good on top of being fun!! Here is a new twist on your taco night. Try it!!!


Toastada Waffles
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Start to Finish: 25 minutes
Makes: 10 servings (2 waffle squares each)

2 cups Original Bisquick mix
1 1/3 cups milk
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 egg
1 can (4.5 ounces) chopped green chilies, drained
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 pound lean ground beef
1 package (1 ounce) taco seasoning mix
6 cups finely shredded lettuce
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 1/2 cups sour cream
2 medium green onions, sliced

Heat waffle iron; grease with shortening if necessary (or spray with cooking spray before heating). Stir Bisquick, milk, oil and egg in a large bowl until blended. Stir in chilies and chili powder.

Pour about 1/2 cup batter onto center of hot waffle iron. (Waffle irons vary in size; check manufacturer's directions for recommended amount of batter.) Close lid on waffle iron. Bake about 5 minutes until steaming stops and waffle is golden brown. Carefully remove waffle. Repeat with remaining batter.

While waffles are baking, cook beef as directed on package of seasoning mix. Top waffles with beef and remaining ingredients.

I actually made just enough waffles for us and then refrigerated the remaining batter until the next night and made fresh waffles for the "left overs". The batter kept very nicely. I am actually going on day two with it... and we'll have it for 3 nights! Can't beat that! Having the waffle as your taco shell - it makes for a very filling meal.
