I once tried to make popadums in a microwave, but I didn’t have popadums, so I soaked some bread, cut them into circles, flattened them, then dusted with curry powder.

The result was probably as inedible as what you’re planning - even reheating frozen eggy bread will be revoltingly soggy. :barf:

Well, yeah…if you don’t cook them first they’re gonna suck. You cook them…THEN freeze them. They’ll be tasty…trust me.

I just can’t find it in my heart to trust you. If I’m feeling silly this weekend I might try it though.

I’m getting the impression that some people think this might be a bad idea. 😉

Okay, you guys convinced me. I’ll find something else for breakfast.

Make yourself some egg and sausage biscuit sandwiches and take them with you. They’ll heat well in the MW.
