For those of you who cook

Mostly stove top, but I use the microwave to heat up frozen veggies, and sometimes to make eggs.

I do mainly stovetop, oven, and grill. My husband loves good old country cooking, which means mostly fried (chicken, cubed steak, etc) But I also do alot of stews, spaghetti sauces & soups stovetop. I like to bake alot of stuff too~ I make a killer meatloaf, which hubby loves, and also rice dishes, dressings and casseroles.
We do alot of grilling year-round. We have a big stainless grill on our back porch, and it's sheltered, so we can use it rain or shine. I'm the designated grill queen, so I do alot of steaks, venison, and seafood on it.

I usually start on the stovetop to brown and caramelize things, then finish in the oven. I try to avoid the microwave as much as possible.

I´ve just started loving cooking a couple months ago, mostly I bake salty/sweet goods.

I broil about 85% of the things I cook. It's so quick and easy I love it.

Baking followed by stovetop, microwave & grill.

It takes the same amount of time to cook noodles in the microwave, but I never have boil-over. I have also been teaching my little ones (6 & 8) how to use the microwave. They still have to watch out for hot food, but they have less burn risk. They love cooking things for themselves, especially quesadillas.
