Your toaster oven isn’t just for toast my friends. You can actually cook delicious meals right in your toaster oven. The toaster oven is pretty much like a regular oven but smaller.
It has a heating source on the top and the bottom which allows your toaster oven to heat up fast and cook your food fast. It also has that handy little timer for those of us who can be forgetful.
Here are some things you’ll want to cook up in your toaster oven today.
