The stove top is good too for a quick heat up. Microwave is not bad for pasta and things with a lot of sauce, but I hate how dried out meat &amp; fish taste that way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-prefer-the-taste-of-leftovers#post-2089613 Sat, 28 Feb 2015 14:44:12 +0000 Mae 2089613@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For anything that is supposed to be sauce-y I prefer the microwave because the oven dries things out (so like... pasta or lasagna or enchiladas). For anything that is supposed to be crispy (like pizza or french fries) I prefer oven. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-prefer-the-taste-of-leftovers#post-2089555 Sat, 28 Feb 2015 13:39:07 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 2089555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Neither.

(Like crispier rotisserie chicken, pork chops, even pizza looks great too). It does take a little longer by 10-15 minutes. I microwave if I am in a hurry though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-prefer-the-taste-of-leftovers#post-2089316 Sat, 28 Feb 2015 01:27:59 +0000 cookiemomster 2089316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: the idea of cold chili makes me a little nauseous.
