Waffled Huevos Rancheros

My oldest son recently had lunch over at a friends house. They had huevos rancheros. He didn’t know that is what it was called but after asking him for details on how they made lunch, I deduced that what they had was just that.
Now, he raved about how tasty it was and I proceeded to tell him that I have never made then for the family because no one likes their eggs sunny side up or even over medium. He then told me, I need to make them sometime.
Well shortly after that, I had the idea to make waffled huevos rancheros. Instead of making it with a corn tortilla, I opted for a homemade cornbread waffle! It was a hit and my son loved it. We served our eggs over medium. However, you can cook the eggs to your liking.
For the rest of my family who don’t care for their eggs over medium, I heated up a can of chili for them to place on top of their waffles. Everyone was happy!
