===== Directions =====
  - Preheat a waffle iron on the regular setting and spray both sides with cooking spray.
  -     Squeeze out any excess moisture from the hash browns and put in a bowl. Pour the melted butter over the hash browns, sprinkle with the salt and pepper and stir. Scoop a heaping 1/2 cup of the seasoned hash browns into each waffle section, then top with a generous 2 tablespoons Cheddar followed by a sprinkling of chopped ham. Top the cheese and ham in each section with another 1/4 cup hash browns. Close the waffle iron and cook for 15 minutes on the regular setting.
  -     Repeat with the remaining hash browns, cheese and ham, filling one section of the waffle iron.
