Solar cooking anyone?

Lots of solar ovens out there.

This about the cheapest I've seen.

Aside from the roof leak, soft floors, rats, mice and bursted plumbing ........ how do you like it?

I built my solar oven out of a cardboard box and aluminum foil. The box has an attached lid that I can adjust to make sure the sun's rays hit the oven properly.

I normally use it to cook frozen foods, because the microwave turns them to rubber. And solar cooking just gives a real nice flavor.

Which reminds me, I've got to get into the garage and find my solar oven. I'm jonesing for some macaroni and beef. :)
