In the last post we talked about baking items together in a conventional oven to conserve some electricity. Today we are going to sing the praises of toaster ovens. These small energy efficient items are great electricity savers.

A well insulated toaster over, with the right amount of air flow will consume an amazing 50% less amount of energy than a conventional oven. That means you could bake those biscuits, casseroles, small pizzas, package goods, etc. for literally half the price! The reason for this is that the toaster oven has a smaller amount of cubic air volume to heat. If you bake a lot of little goods, this is the way to go! Have a great day!
