I guarantee you your sandwiches will get better...
If you only invested in a toaster oven.
Just build your sandwich, throw it in until your sandwich is lightly browned on the bread... huzzah! Cheese is melted, a little bit of heat added to your meat, a bit of crispness to your edges and your sandwich won't fall apart so easily. Here's a neat quick EASY recipe if you want a solid breakfast: throw some butter on a frying pan. When it melts a nice thin layer over the pan, throw an egg on. While it's cooking, load up two slices of bread. One side with cheddar cheese, one side with Garlic cream cheese. Once that's finished, get back to your frying pan. By now your egg should be a decent sunny-side up. Get your spatula at the ready (if you're missing one you can always hit up SPATULA CITY!), get the egg on the compact side and flip her to make it over easy. Let it cook. The yolk is okay to get all hardened, you don't want a messy sammich. Once it's all done on both sides, throw the egg on the side with the cheese, close up with the garlic cream cheese side, chuck the whole thing in the toaster until the bread is slightly browned. Throw in a glass of juice and you have a full-fledged breakfast for under $.50

Addendum: You can get two packs of ~8 slices of round pepperoni or salami or smoked ham at Save-on for $4. Throw that in, use an english muffin instead of bread, you've got an egg mcmuffin for still about $.50. And it's better than anything you'd get at McDonald's. Prep is about 10 minutes. You'll take almost that much time to go through a drive-through, more if you go in.

i have a toaster oven. but i prefer not to use it. sure the cheese being melted is a thumbs up, but the crunchy bread is not worth it. toasted bread = crumbs, and who the hell wants to clean up after a sandwich? i sure as hell dont.

myra already said it, but grilled sandwiches are rad.
especially when you pre-grill things to go in it.. like peppers. mmm.. so good. i'm totally eating a sandwich right not, but unfortunately it isn't grilled. if i wanted to grill it in my house it'd be flame grilled, which i don't want to do.

Oh man, I cannot live without my toaster oven!!
Hmm, I think I may need to try out your lil recipe there ebbo. :) Not a huge egg fan but sounds dee-lish. I never microwave pizza pops anymore since I tried them in a toaster oven- so much better and you don't get gooeyness exploding out the ends.

I HATE microwaved pizza pops. They always overcook the outsides and leave the insides cold. Have some patience and wait the extra 10 minutes for the toaster oven to cook it properly. You'll thank yourself in the end. In the meantime, while you're waiting, have a fucking banana.

I'm going to run a test when I get home. I'm going to make myself a couple of hotdogs and throw 'em into the toaster oven. Selected toppings will be:
Ketchup Mayo Honey Mustard Hot Banana Peppers Cheddar Cheese Can't fucking wait. Crap. I made myself hungry now.

I guess I'm not a very good hippie.
Sorry, WHAT's wrong with hot-dogs? Or maybe I should go buy some beef and pretend that that's not pumped full of hormones. Or that these animals aren't raised in metal boxes where they're fed to die. Because those are totally natural.
