I like the chicken thighs on pizza idea. I marinated boneless skinless chicken thighs in a little rasberry dressing, soy sauce, brown sugar and soy sauce, s&p. Basically looked in the fridge and pulled out what I thought would work. I roasted the whole shebang in the oven with cherry tomatoes and sprayed with a little oil and "Magnifique".
ps I love the EVO oil sprayer.

Sorry I just saw your reply. I have not tried to bake bread in the oven. I have not tried to steam veggies in it either but I will now. I have air fried frozen sweet potato fries which came out crispy. I reheat pizza and it comes out well. I always use it to roast potatoes and bake chicken dishes....I have not tried the dehydrate function either.
That's funny!
I know I'm late to the party but I just had to comment. I love my Breville Smart Oven. I sold my former one for a larger model with a " fry" function. I use it all the time. It holds 9x13 dishes and can accommodate a 12" pizza. I use it everyday and feel it saves electricity because I don't have to heat up my large oven.
Rotisserie chicken with garlic mashed potatoes and roasted carrots. I found out that the left over, picked over roasted chicken makes excellent stock imho.
Mike thanks for the ideas.
Never thought of that. Personally I love the stuff and just realized that if I put it in a glass in the refrigerator and top with a sandwich baggie it will keep for a long time. I also learned from Christopher Kimball that the stems can be frozen and used in soup and stews. Just a tidbit for all you cilantro lovers out there.
I made slow cooker shredded beef tacos with Carrot and Cabbage slaw. It was a CI recipe so you know there was a lot of labor involved. I was making it to share with a needy next door neighbor. Exhausted I packaged the meat, the sauce, the slaw, the feta cheese, the corn tortillas, and some mango slices for dessert. Upon eating it with my husband I thought something is missing. Yup I forgot the most important ingredients :cilantro and lime juice. Alas too late for my neighbor!
This is worth saving.
How to twist a negative into a positive. All is fair in business and war. But not really for the consumer.
ps I added a little cinnamon to sauce.
I made TOH's cider-glazed pork tenderloin. I added the juices from the oven baked pork to the saute pan and reduced it per instructions. Could have added sliced apples too I suppose. Highly recommend this recipe.
Happy Birthday, Mike! Enjoy your cake or pie or cookie or whatever. But let it be good!
I made a variation on "my year with Chris Kimball"'s barbecued chicken thighs. I baked instead of grilled the thighs. I loved the idea and taste of smooshing a piece of ground raw bacon on the boneless chicken thighs. I used the spice combo but used regular bbq sauce mixed with peanut butter. Got a thumbs up from the hubby.
I always preferred Hydrox cookies. The filling wasn't so cloying and the cookie was crisper.
