Lack of a microwave...

flcaoh

Since moving into my own teeny tiny apartment several months ago, I have yet to buy a microwave. I have actually come to enjoy it because I eat healthier and as a result have learned to slow down and enjoy my food (I rarely used my oven or stove when I had a microwave).

But I had to vent some frustration because I am about to cook a frozen light calzone... it takes 2 minutes in the microwave... 50 in my oven. Grrr... I'm hungry and missing my microwave right now.

I couldn't exist without it. I don't cook in it, I use it for defrosting and heating up leftovers. I don't think I could go as long as you have :happy:

I only use mine for vegetables, melting butter for popcorn and once in awhile to warm somthing up. I could go along time without one. Oh wait! I just learned how to cook regular oatmeal in it! So I might use it more now.

alot of that cooking time is thawing time... maybe thaw your frozen food out until you get a 'wave.
