Toaster or Toaster Oven? I have been thinking about this question lately. I didn't grow up with a toaster oven therefore never registered for one when we got married and still don't have one. But I have been thinking about one more and more lately. A friend encouraged me today that they are fabulous ;0)! Any thoughts? What do you use?
A product I have really come to like over the past year is the Ziploc steam bags! Have you tried them?? They're great. Last night I had a piece of chicken in my fridge and didn't know WHAT to do for dinner. I was soooooooo tempted to just order a pizza but I used self control and decided to come up with something! Lately I have been trying to cut chicken breasts in half the long way making 2 instead of 1. A lot of the breasts come SO thick. So I stuck my big piece of chicken in the steam bag and put it in the microwave for I think 3 minutes...with some seasoning of course!! (The bags give you all the instructions for so many different food items.) Cut all that chicken up and mixed it up with some Rice-a-roni and it was delis!! Not the most fancy meal but just added a veggie and it was great dinner! All for now...

I grew up without a toaster over too & thought it would be cool to have one...got one when we got married. Used it for a year. I hated it, especially to make toast. It was a pain to clean & took up SO MUCH SPACE (we lived in a little apartment so space was in high demand). Anyway. My vote is toaster...you can do everything else in your regular oven! Of course, it's what you decide:)
My vote is for toaster oven. I use mine ALL the time. Mini pizza, chix nuggets. reheat pizza, bagels you name it! I like that it heats up faster than regular sized oven and uses less electricity.
Sure it takes up extra space but it's not like my mixer where it sits there and doesn't get used.
So I say Toaster Oven all the way!!
