Microwave ovens cook food faster but are usually more expensive. Also food packages will have directions for cooking in microwaves, rarely will you find any with directions for a toaster oven.

A toaster oven is a cross between a toaster and a oven. You can cook food that needs toasted in it. But you can also use it as you would a regular oven. It heats up fast so you can broil and bake without using as much energy as a regular oven or heating up the house. It is smaller so you would not be able to fit very much food in it at once. It is a good alternative though.

Toaster ovens heat food with metal coils at the bottom which heat food evenly. Microwaves use radio waves to heat up the food.

Keep in mind that studies have shown that microwaves ovens reduce the nutritional value of food.
