Sunday, June 24th, 2012 09:58 amFoods that don't need fancy appliances:
-Spring rolls
-Noodle salad, tuna salad, egg salad, thai beef salad, tossed salad
-Sammiches
Okay, get this, if you have access to the outdoors, like a patio, you can cook there.
Toaster oven, crock pot, and hot plate can go on the patio if you have a plug or an extension cord. These are available at the thrift store.
Things that go in the toaster oven:
-Anything you would bake. Get some small pans at the thrift store.
