Sweet Potato Hash Browns with Tofu Scramble, Peach Salsa & Fresh Corn Sauce

What I learned today via the internet was one of the greatest discoveries of the year, maybe even of all time! It's a whole new way of cooking hash browns and I don't think it would have ever occurred to me in a million years.
COOK HASH BROWNS IN A WAFFLE IRON!!!!
WHAT!?
Not only is it a genius way to use an appliance that doesn't get much run in my kitchen, but it also involved only a light spray of canola oil to get the job done. Compare that to the copious amounts of oil needed to cook crispy hash browns in a pan and you will never look at your waffle iron the same.
My iron, like most, has an internal timer that tells you when the waffle is done. The sound went off but I let it continue to cook about 5 minutes more to get a crispy bite. Make sure to taste test your potatoes before pulling them out, no one likes a raw potato!
