Veggie burger patties can simply be placed in the toaster. These patties may take two rounds of toasting to be cooked thoroughly. Don’t forget to toast the buns too.

I’m spilling all the secrets! Cut corn or flour tortillas into fours and place 2-4 of them into the toaster. While those are toasting gather your seasoning. I recommend brushing olive oil on your freshly toasted chips and sprinkling a salt, cumin, and chili powder mix on top.

5. Asparagus

Tired of fries and want a healthy side but you don’t have a stove? Are you in a bind with time and need asparagus quick? Place your asparagus in aluminum foil or a toaster bag. Add your seasoning and toast to perfection. Trust me on this, it works!

Avacado toast is so 2017, make sweet potato toast in your toaster. Slice the sweet potato into slim halves and place in the toaster. Once it’s toasted add all of your desired toppings. This snack works for any time of the day.
