We have been caravanners and motorhomers for as long as I can remember but in all that time we have never used the built in oven and always felt that the space would be better used as a storage..... BUT.....
We currently have a 2007 motorhome which doesn't have a built in microwave so we bought one and carry it in the bottom of the wardrobe when not in use. Mrs K and I were having a conversation about the space it takes up and whether we really need it and then we got on to the fact that people now carry air fryers, soup makers and all sorts of cooking gadgets these days but as storage is at a premium my wife said she didn't want to carry anymore gadgets.
Then, (shock horror!), she said perhaps we should make more use of the oven!
This revelation has made me wonder what cooking preferences others have. Obviously, using the oven would use more gas but otherwise is it an efficient way of cooking in the van? Do we really need the microwave?
I would be interested to know what you all do...!
