So how do you feed yourself when your stove is out of commission? (And you don't want to waste money on fast food)
That is a question that I had to answer for myself yesterday…
Actually, I had gotten a weird gift from my aunt during Christmas (which oddly enough turned out to be a stroke of luck with this impeding needing food adventure). One of those gifts you kinda sit on a shelf and don’t think anymore about. I know a lot of people fight the crowds and return these gifts, but I keep a collection of them. And I’m glad I did, because one of those gifts turned out to be my newest kitchen hero.
Even without my oven, I was able to cook myself a frozen pizza (and no I did not eat it while it was still frozen.)
My aunt had bought me a Presto Pizzazz Pizza Oven. It has an open design so I was like, “yeah that’s not an oven”. (see below) But hell if it didn’t work.
So I discovered that this little pizza cooking machine makes a mean frozen pizza. Seriously, better than the oven. Even my cheapo pizza tasted better than delivery. This little thing is fun to watch rotate the pizza around while it cooks it (ok so I might be easily amused but I thought it was neat). And it cooked everything evenly, no cold spots, no doughy spots, no burnt spots. I think next time I might try making my own pizza on this Presto Pizza Oven. Also the directions say it can heat most frozen foods, chicken nuggets, quesadillas, jalepeno poppers, chicken wings. Hello this mean machine would be perfect for heating snacks on game day! You can even use it to make fruit pizzas, but since my blog is about artery clogging foods, I’ll leave the fruit pizza recipes to other people to blog about.
I might have to go dig through that shelf of weird Christmas gifts and see if there are any more items that are hidden treasures…hmmm.
Oh, and I did call my landlord, the stove should be fixed within a week (I hope).
