JT, asked google this question:
for foods cooked in an oven range; why not cook in toaster oven? Their answer is probably the same as those offered here.
Often wondered why, myself. Fortunately during the kitchen
renovation we had invested in a Ninja Foodie to prepare for
lack of oven range availability.
Well, I will try just popping them out of the packaging and cooking them in something pyrex or metal; I’ll let you know how it goes.
We bought a Ninja air fryer a while back, and used it twice. Neither experience was very satisfactory, but we suspect there’s a ‘learning curve’, so we’ll keep it for a while and experiment. I’m hoping it doesn’t become a huge paperweight in the kitchen :-)
The toaster oven, on the other hand, has been a great addition. It seems to cook lots of things even better than the big oven, and probably uses less energy. I’m sure we’ll continue to use it even when the dead oven is replaced.
