Snacks

[Drummer]

I use a halogen oven all the time - it is one off the telly selling channel with a hinged lid - I am on my second one, they are really good - very versatile.
I also have an induction hob which can be plugged in anywhere and they don't get hot.

@Jane16 well done for getting your HBA1C so well controlled in such a short space of time - that’s amazing! I started off in completely denying myself everything that wasn’t super healthy & 3 months in i was depressed too. So I made it my quest to find healthier alternatives & like you don’t want the sweet snacks in between. Sorry about the MS too, it must be a real challenge. The halogen oven is not a fixed oven and it’s glass and sits on a work surface like. Slow cooker. You can make whole chicken, vegetables and cake in it. I wondered if something on a table where no bending would be more helpful. Of course safety is very important too. Take a look at them and see if you think you’d get on Ok. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Daewoo-Sel...3?keywords=Halogen+oven&qid=1582121368&sr=8-3 I don’t have one so cant recommend a particular model but Reviews are good. Good luck

Thank you, I will take a look at them, it is a challenge and I hear what you are saying about depression. I hope you are feeling better now? I have a slow cooker and I find that useful, must investigate to see what other things I can do in it, the Americans do pot roasts and all sorts!! Gook luck to you too x

We have one of these ovens - https://www.lakeland.co.uk/31779/Sage-The-Smart-Oven-Pro-BOV820BSS - it sits on our countertop and we do nearly all our cooking in it. It's easy to use and more economical to run than a full-sized under-counter oven, and no bending is required. There are cheaper (and smaller) ones available, but we got this one because it got good reviews.
