Cold Pizza?

[catnapper]

A debate rages in my house... what do you do with left over pizza? Re-heat in an oven or microwave? Eat it cold? Oh no... what to do, what to do?

how do you eat your left over Pizza?

[Pam]

Actually I could have selected all of the above, because I have done it all. I usually like to just warm it a little in the toaster oven to take the chill off although it tastes just fine cold too! Sometimes I go to bed thinking that I'll get to have a piece the next day only to find that hubby ate the leftovers sometime after midnight! LOL!

Reheat in the oven. I like a crispy crust - never tried cold pizza, though!

"ALL the Above" works for us!

But the Micro-ZAPPER is the Quick Way.

From past, sad experience -
Go easy with the microwave, though...

LOW Power setting;
and only a Quick, BRIEF, zip!...
NOT a long, hard ZAP!

High Power, or a Loooong Zap, will turn the crust into a
*rubbery*, *chewey*, *limp* mess!

Also helps to put the slices ON a paper towel,
and lay one on TOP of the slice, too -
the paper towels absorb the excess moisture -
and help prevent the "rubbery" texture.

I always buy the single serving size pizza and never have any leftover.

I too, like Pam will eat it any of the above ways. I do like it cold, however rarely eat it that way. I usually first warm it slightly in the microwave then put it in the toaster oven to crisp it. I voted for the oven, because that is my favorite way to eat left over pizza. It's only my husband and I so we always have left overs.

Now I want pizza for supper, maybe tomorrow. Tonight is chicken.

You too? It must be genetically programed into men.

We have a pizza place that we can get 3 pizzas for $18 and went there last night... we have A LOT of left overs right now, so no matter how hungry he was last night he couldn't finish it off.

My first choice is reheat in the microwave....eating cold would be next. Oven...what's that????

[slleipnir]

I usually reheat it in the microwave..but if I'm lazy, I'll eat it cold

[G.P.girl]

I think about that too, only ........... its my brother who ate it after midnight. *sigh* Sometimes, if I'm really determined to save myself a slice, I put it in an airtight container, and put it DEEP, way into the fridge, so my brother can't find it. If I don't do that, there is *no way* I would get a leftover piece. It does run in the nature of most men. He he he

I could also vote for all of the above, because I have done all, but recently, I discovered putting it in the toaster for a while to be the best way. I used to think that wouldn't work.........that all the cheese would melt and fall, but if you do it for just the right time, it gets perfect. Crust gets nice and crispy, pizza warm, and cheese still in the right place.
