LOADED WAFFLE IRON INSTANT TWICE-"BAKED" POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat waffle iron to high heat. Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl. When the iron is ready, pile one serving's worth of potato mix in the middle of the waffle iron and close.

POTATO WAFFLES

Steps:

• Peel potatoes, and cut each into eighths. Place in a medium saucepan of cold salted water. Bring to a boil, and simmer until potatoes are very tender, about 8 minutes. Drain, and set aside in a bowl to cool. Mash into coarse pieces with a fork or pastry cutter.
