I finally bought myself a toaster oven and have been trying to come up with things to cook in it.  Besides hamburgers, what other things have you cooked in a toaster oven?

Toaster oven - Old Woman

[ In Reply To ..]
I have cooked most things in my toaster oven (that would fit in it) that I could cook in a regular oven. I like to use it to make cornbread, casseroles (especially when all is required is to melt the cheese), bake chicken breasts, brownies. I found with mine, however, things that take long cooking times usually do not do as well. Maybe it was just my particular oven (it is a tad old). Hope this helps.

Thank you - sm

Thanks for your suggestions. I made hot pastrami sandwiches in it last night and it seemed to take a long time. I guess I just need to experiment with it a little bit! Thanks again for your help. I will try some of the things you mentioned.

Use mine a lot - Just the 2 of us

I make a patch of cookie dough for the freezer and will pull out enough to make 4 cookies, just enough for the 2 people living in my house. Have tried out lots of chicken breast and fish filet recipes. If meats seem too dry, next time throw some foil over it. Definitely experiment. Small-batch roasted veggies do well also. Have fun!

Anyone Have Any Good Veggie Recipes To ShareJul 15, 2010
The next time we go shopping have decided to go all veggie for a couple weeks, hopefully longer.  We are overweight, feeling run down, and have been having stomach problems.  We knows its what we eat because after we eat we feel it the most.  So goodbye to the meat, dairy, cheese, breads, rice, sugar, chocolate, and hello to the veggies.  Now...I make excellent salads - nothing fancy (romaine, tomato, cuke, carrots, brocoli slaw, garbanzos, and a sprinkle of sunflower seeds), ...

Indian Recipes- Part 1Jul 15, 2010
As requested, here are my recipes for cauliflower and egg curry.  These are disgustingly simple recipes.  They are traditional recipes, as I was got them from a guy from Delhi I was dating, but they may represent bachelor cooking rather than good mother cooking.   I'm going to break these down into a posting for the ingredients (this one), one for the cauliflower, and one for the egg curry.    The only ingredient that you likely will not have in your kitchen f ...

Share Pea Soup RecipesOct 13, 2014
I'd like to share my pea soup recipe, and would like other ideas as well. I don't measure things, so just use your own judgment, likes/dislikes. Use a very heavy pot like an enamel pot or dutch oven. First, I take some olive oil, heat it, then sautee up some chopped garlic, onions, celery and carrots. I remove them from the pan when they're done, add a little more olive oil, then brown up a ham steak really well. Let the bottom of the pot get brown. (You can cube the ham steak ...

Canned Frosting Fudge Recipes (see Message)Nov 22, 2010

Last year I was way too broke to make any holiday treats but this year is MUCH better (hallelujah, LOL!), and I remember those recipes sounded very tasty and simple. TIA to anyo ...
