I am sure if you have the right recipes, you can churn out pretty good dishes with the microwave as well.
For me, I too love baking and would love to get an oven to start on something that I have not done in a long time!
I sure hope I can redesign my kitchen and this time, I am gonna include an oven in the design!
So, you mentioned you love to bake. What kind of baking are you into? Pastries? Cookies? Pies? Cakes?

For regular crusted pizza, lasagna, and pot pies and baking cookies, I use the oven. but I use the microwave for t.v. dinners and thin and crispy pizzas.

I think i like the mircorwave more. Because i could almost cook anything in it, i could even heat my cup of drink in the microwave, cook eggs in it, cook noodles in it. I think the only think a microwave cant do is to make toasted bread.hehe.

I feel like the oven is the healthiest choice, but I use the microwave a lot. The microwave is easy and fast and sometimes that is how the meals need to be done. Like dinner tonight, I have no idea what to make so I will probibly microwave something out of a can.

I prefer the microwave because it heats up food quicker than a stove.

I usually use an oven for most things I cook. My microwave is about 15 years old and doesn't cook the food evenly. I see recipes of microwaves today that I could never do with my microwave. I love my oven because the food tastes better and cooks better. I also heard that microwaves cook out the good stuff but I don't know how true that is? But if I had to have just one, it would be an oven.

Probably all of you know this already, but just in case: do not boil water in a microwave oven. Water can get superheated (heated to more than 100 degrees celsius), and then boil explosively, with the potential of causing injuries if you are nearby. That said, I agree with most everyone that for heating, is the most efficient way. Now, if you want something heat and crusty, you better have an oven that is most microwave and conventional, or have both. I do heat filled pastries first in a microwave and then in an electric oven, is faster than doing it only in the electric, but better in final experience than doing it only in the microwave.

i prefer microwave oven..
Using a microwave oven to cook food saves your time and makes food tastier.
he important benefit of a microwave oven is the 'time efficiency'. As compared to the traditional methods of cooking, microwave ovens take very little time to cook. A microwave oven has a timer which enables us to set the time for cooking food. When timer runs out, the oven turns off automatically. Different times are set to cook different types of cookies will take longer time to bake. food items. For instance water can get boiled in one minute.
keep posting take care and have fun..
