Pre-fab toast: Found this in Walmart a couple of weeks ago before bad tooth. In the bread section, I accidentally found TOAST ALREADY MADE. :O) A bunch comes in a cellophane bag. As I said, got it about two weeks ago and it's good until some time in OCTOBER! Pre-fab toast. You don't do anything with it except eat it - no micro, just eat the toast. It is tasty and nicely crunchy.
Pre-fab bacon: Oscar Meyer Thick Cut already cooked bacon. Takes maybe 20-30 seconds in the micro. Hot, pre-fab bacon.
A real, honest to goodness egg: Have an egg cooker thing. Put a bit of butter in one of the cups, break the egg in the cup, micro maybe 20 seconds - real egg done to soft. Few more seconds if you want it better set.
Actual total micro cooking time - 1 minute or less.
There you are, pre-fab bacon and toast, real egg. Amount of chemicals - don't know, don't care. :o)
You won't run out of bread if you keep some already made toast around - lasts for several months - some day I may get brave and read the ingredients.
LOL. You can make your own prefab toast. In one of my back to basics books regarding storage without refrigeration, this is one way to preserve bread for at least a month.
Basically dehydrate the toast, but put the butter on it when ready to eat. If you want softer bread, a little steam will do the trick. The author’s kids call it “cake bread” when she steams it.
I often make my own croutons, but had never heard of having toast on hand before. We have bought some of the smaller toasts to serve along with crackers, cheese, and wine during the holidays.
Oh yeh, I forgot. I fry and egg in the micro wave sometimes. I have a little micro wave sandwich maker that I bought to make toasted ham and cheese sandwiches in the micro wave.
I just spray a little oil on the bottom plate, crack the egg, spray a little oil on top, and cook about 40-55 seconds depending on whether I want it easy or medium. In the summer, I always make my bacon and scrambled eggs in the microwave too.
Many times, I cook up the whole batch of bacon, and put it in a ziplock bag in the freezer. Then it’s really quick for when I am in a hurry, or just lazy.
