The only thing better than a freshly baked cookie is a freshly baked cookie, plus some raw cookie dough right off the spoon.  This Toas-Tite has plenty of both.  Plus if you can’t decide if you want sugar cookies or chocolate chip cookies, fret no more.  You get both of those as well.  (And yes, [...]

It’s not a holiday season without some pecan pie.  I love apple and pumpkin pies but there’s something about pecan pie.  The caramel-y sweetness.  The toasted pecans.  I just love it.  So of course, when I saw the America’s Test Kitchen All-Time Best Holiday Recipes on the shelf with it’s old-fashioned Pecan Pie recipe…well, I [...]

Around Thanksgiving and Christmas, apple and pumpkin pies are a must-have.  But the trouble is, sometimes you have to pick!  Have no fear, when you’re making Toas-Tite sized pies, you don’t have to make that decision.  You can have your pie and eat it too. Apple Pie Pudgy Pie Ingredients: 1/2 a small apple, sliced [...]

Thanksgiving is less than a week away.  To get in the holiday mood, Boy and I got some eggnog, turned on the heater, and of course made a turkey (….just to have….because we wanted to).  So that means that before Thanksgiving is even here, we already have delicious leftovers. As you’re getting ready for your [...]

No, we didn’t build a time machine.  But it’s true.  Now, thanks to Replica Products, you can get yourself a brand new Toas-Tite replica. In April, we got an email from Ron Feigenbaum who with his wife Jan, her sister Sue, and husband Rich had embarked on a journey to start production of the classic [...]

Let’s kick off this post with my favorite joke.  What kind of cheese is not yours?                                                                         NACHO CHEESE! Oh man.  Hilarious.  I really love that joke…Boy can tell you.  Any time it comes up, it never fails to make [...]

On this All Hallow’s Eve, we’re getting a little German.  No, I’m not talking about costumes, I’m talking about food.  Beer, sausage, sauerkraut, onions, pretzels, beets, red cabbage…but in Toas-Tite form.  Unfortunately, we can’t fit all that in a Toas-Tite so we’re going with the main components. Ingredients: 2 slices of bread 1/3 of a [...]

Halloween is right around the corner!  I hope you have your pumpkins carved and your spider webs out.  I know we sure do.  Boy’s pumpkin this year is of Oogie Boogie and mine is a simple little owl. We also have some cool ghost window gels, a pumpkin shaped table runner, two tiny ceramic jack-o-lanterns, [...]

When I was growing up, my mom would frequently make her version of eggplant parmesan.  Her version is significantly simpler than most traditional recipes (and probably a bit healthier without the egg, butter, or breadcrumbs).  It consists of just rounds of eggplant, topped with a bit of tomato sauce, topped with a thin slice of [...]

There are some fairly rare variations of the Toas-Tite out there.  One is the Boy Scout branded version.  It’s slightly smaller than the standard Toas-Tite and has the Boy Scout crest on it.  And this week, one went up on eBay for sale.  There’s only one picture for the product but it looks to be [...]
