Quick, Tasty Breakfast

No school today for President's Day so Matt and I had a nice brunch when I got back from the fitness center and a hair appointment.
Now, this is going to sound contradictory - fitness center and brunch (not a healthy one at that), but come on, you can't eat healthy EVERY minute of the day, it just doesn't work.
So, if you're looking for a healthy breakfast, this is not your recipe.  If you're looking for a quick and tasty breakfast, this is your recipe!  If you're looking for a new idea that can be altered to your specific tastes, this is also your recipe!

Waffle Iron Brunch - (sorry no pictures)

Hash browns on the waffle iron is a fantastic idea!  You can add whatever you want - onions, peppers, cheese, etc. 
We made frozen hash browns with cheese and seasoning.  Spray the hot waffle iron with cooking spray to prevent sticking.  Add a handful of hash browns, season, and add cheese.  Add a few more hash browns to cover the cheese and tightly close the waffle iron.  Cook for a few minutes until browned and slightly crispy.

Cinnamon rolls on the waffle iron is another fantastic idea!  Takes a lot less time than the oven!  Place 2-4 of your favorite refrigerated cinnamon rolls on a hot, sprayed, waffle iron.  Tightly close and cook a few minutes until cinnamon rolls are lightly browned.  Serve with the frosting that comes with the rolls or with maple syrup or both!

Now don't go making this breakfast/brunch every day, or every week, probably not good to do that - but do enjoy it every once in awhile - we did!
