As a kid/teen/young adult I HATED leftover pizza. Luckily I married someone who insisted on getting a toaster oven (which I thought was unnecessary - I was so wrong) and who had perfected the art of reheating pizza. Last night when Nate caught me taking a picture of my CPK Carne Asada pizza, I told him my plans for this post and how I'm the pizza heater-upper expert, to which he replied, "And WHY are you the expert?" Yes, Yes, it's all because of Nate. So, with full credit given, here's the "recipe"
Leftover Pizza
Microwave pizza until it is quite warm - appx 45 sec - 1 min
Put in toaster oven (without the tray is better, if you can keep the cheese from dripping - nate uses the tray) and TOAST (not bake) a little longer. THIS IS THE KEY. It crisps up the bread so nicely. You won't even know it's leftovers. You're welcome.

Okay, Jane. When I grow up, I want my blog to be like yours. I am now officially going to stalk your blog.
This post is so funny. We bought our toaster oven at my husband's suggestion, too. I thought they were for people who lived in small apartments and didn't have "real" ovens--wait...that's me...with the toaster oven and the 3/4 size oven.
Mmm. CPK. That sounds so good. I think we pretty much only use our toaster oven for reheating pizza. The microwave tip will really help.
as long as we are mutually stalking each other it's okay, right? :) Everyone should have a toaster oven... nate totally converted me.
you haven't sold me on the toaster oven, but CPK sounds yummy. I'm a sucker for the thai chicken pizza... it never disappoints.
We had a toaster oven growing up and that's how we did it also. Now I don't have one and it's just not the same.
oh man...these recipes are amazing. I, unfortunately, live with IMPEM (Irish meat and potato eating man)and his two little clonettes. If I could get them to eat anything with a green ingredient it would be awesome. It is the only time I miss the single life...to be able to eat freely of green foods!
a few weeks ago nate worked late and cate went to bed early and I cooked just for myself... it's kind of nice to only have to worry about what YOU like! :) go CPK and toaster ovens!
