Before we get into the fun stuff, an apology!  Boy and I have been truants about posting recipes (and even making Toas-Tites).  It’s been a crazy couple of months filled with family events, traveling around California, and moving to a new apartment!  We’ve got a special recipe to commemorate the new place so keep an […]

Here in the San Francisco Bay Area, we’re pretty spoiled when it comes to food. And some of the best treasures are found in tiny holes in the wall. One such hole in the wall is the Creekside Smokehouse in El Granada just north of Half Moon Bay. One day, Boy and I were making […]

Broccoli cheese soup and broccoli cheese casserole is the stuff of childhood.  A green veggie that not everyone likes covered in yummy melted cheese which most people like.  Now wrap that up in a Toas-Tite and you’ve got something pretty special.  Boy and I whipped this one up a few days ago loosely inspired by […]

Well, whether it’s Valentine’s Day or just a Tuesday, this Toas-Tite is pretty darn magical. But to preface its genesis, here’s a story. The real inspiration for this Toas-Tite flying saucer sandwich came from two wonderful ladies who work at Soto’s Market in Cambria, CA.  Boy and I were on vacation in Cambria a few […]

Boy and I tend to gravitate toward the savory Toas-Tite pudgy pies, but the other day we bought a bunch of blueberries to make blueberry muffins (we highly recommend the one from Cook’s Illustrated, the June 2009 issue).  And of course, our eyes were bigger than our stomachs so we ended up with an extra […]

Last week, Boy came home with a bunch of potatoes from the farmer’s market.  I love a good potato…but I don’t cook them that frequently.  So we decided to go pretty basic and we made mashed potatoes with three of them.  However, there are only two of us so needless to say, we ended up […]

One of the major dilemmas of making sandwiches in the Toas-Tite grill is bread size.  In this day and age, most sliced bread just isn’t big enough to cover the Toas-Tite sandwich grill all the way!  And without a tight seal, you run the risk of making a mess of your stove dripping cheese and […]

Disclaimer: We started this blog post a few days after Halloween…now, we find ourselves finishing it…a few days after Christmas.  Sorry about that! Boy and I started seeing each other shortly before Halloween 2008.  One year later, we decided to have a quiet evening at Boy’s house handing out candy to little neighborhood hooligans and […]

You might of read on the About Toas-Tite Recipes page that I told Girl to put Toas-Tites on our list of things to do, if not, go check it out and see how all of this came to be. Anyways, I figured I would put up the Toas-Tite that began my love affair with this […]

Some of the original literature for the Toas-Tite says it can turn leftovers into a delicious new meal.  Boy and I hadn’t done leftover Toas-Tites before, but the other night we decided to pick up some barbeque ribs, a pulled pork sandwich, coleslaw, and baked beans for dinner.  Needless to say, our eyes were way […]
