Waffled Rice

Submitted by Beanies mama

"Yummy variation of fried rice. Steamed rice gets crunchy when waffled. This is great for cleaning out your fridge while having the kids eat some veggies. If your kids don't eat veggies, try processing them so they can't pick them out. You can easily substitute the meat with beans for vegetarians. Suggestions for veggies - broccoli, green onions, peas, asparagus, peppers, carrots, corns, onion, mushrooms, cauliflower, etc. Suggestions for meat - chicken, ground beef, ground turkey, bacon, sausage, SPAM, black beans, etc. Mine love this w/ ketchup for an afterschool snack."
