Broiler Pan

Home cooking is not the same kind of meal preparation that was done by our mom’s. I grew up with the images of June Cleaver spending the majority of her day in the kitchen preparing slow cooked meals for her family. The family would then spend time eating the meal in the formal dining room at a leisurely pace. That was a different era with a different set of values and life styles. Today the need and want for convenience and speed with our food preparation is the name of the game, and I wouldn't be without my broiler pan now...

I would like to spend hours in the kitchen preparing the meals for my family, but the number of hours that I am away from home at my job does not allow this luxury. I do feel it is very important to eat a meal together each day. My children are involved in many activities but we all try to make an effort to avoid making plans over the dinner hour. My husband’s job is set hours with few exceptions so we mainly need to work around the children’s schedule. I try to plan quick meals that are nutritious and tasty. One item that I use often to accomplish this is my broiler pan.

We do not have a stove top grill. Our outdoor grill is used often, but it is not always convenient due to our winter weather patterns. Two years ago I invested in a high quality broiler pan, and my meal preparations became much faster. I mentioned it was a high quality pan. Most people have the broiler pan that comes with their ovens; however this is usually a flimsy hard to clean piece of equipment. The broiler pan that I have has three pieces. The bottom piece is heavy stainless steel that is two and a half inches deep. There is a grill rack that fits inside that allows the fats from broiled steaks, chicken and other meats to run down into the pan. The third piece is a non-stick griddle surface that can be used in the oven or on the stove top across two burners. This piece can be used with the broiler pan or by its self. It is very convenient for making pancakes, French toast or eggs. The non-stick surface makes clean up go very fast.

One of my family’s favorite meals is pancakes or French toast, sausage and fresh fruit. This is a nutritional, fast cooking meal. My son tells me that he loves eating breakfast at night. When you are looking for fast meal ideas remember that eggs are a nutritional and fast ingredient that most people enjoy eating.
