my little oven

I wanted to pay a little tribute to my little oven. I admit I was a little skeptical about how much this little oven could do. With my kitchen being so small I really am happy that my oven is little. It has been impressive how much it can do (which is helpful when I only have a two burner stove. I haven't had a microwave for the last 3 years in Cairo and I have come to realize how useful one is this past month. Here is what this little thing can do:

• steam function (veggies)
  
• convection (I have baked cookies and brownies)
  
• microwave
  
• defrost
  
• grill (this feature is good for toast)
  
• steam& microwave simultaneously
• plus many other settings.
  

Hopefully the baking dishes in our shipment will fit inside :-) Another victory in the kitchen this week has been making our first Mexican meal. Not being able to find tortillas (that don't cost an arm and a leg) has limited the meals...but my sister told me that she makes them from scratch. They were DELICIOUS and made the fajitas amazing. Thanks Julie!
