What Is the Build Your Own Hashbrown Bowl Menu with Price?
The Build Your Own Hashbrown Bowl is the ultimate customizable meal on Waffle House’s signature hashbrown bowls menu . Unlike pre-designed bowls like the Bacon Egg and Cheese Hashbrown Bowl or the Sausage Egg and Cheese Hashbrown Bowl, this option lets you choose exactly what goes into your bowl.
You start with a base of double hashbrowns and then add your choice of proteins, eggs, cheese, and toppings. This is perfect for picky eaters, those with dietary restrictions, or anyone who wants complete control over their meal. The Build Your Own Hashbrown Bowl starts with a base of double hashbrowns (two servings of those famous golden shredded potatoes, grilled to crispy perfection). From there, you can add:
| Component | Options |
|---|---|
| Protein | Bacon, sausage, ham, grilled chicken, cheesesteak, or multiple proteins |
| Eggs | Scrambled, over-easy, sunny-side up, over-hard, or egg whites |
| Cheese | American, Swiss, cheddar, or pepper jack |
| Hashbrown Toppings | Smothered (onions), covered (cheese), chunked (ham), diced (tomatoes), peppered (jalapeños), capped (mushrooms), topped (chili), country (gravy) |
For those who want a creamy alternative to hashbrowns, you can also build your own breakfast grits bowl with the same protein and topping options. For a complete inventory of all pre-designed bowl offerings, consult our signature hashbrown bowls menu .
