Kmart fan's genius cooking hack with popular $15 product: 'Best or worst gadget ever!'

Kmart fans have been raving about the $15 Microwave Toastie Maker for weeks, praising the cheap and efficient device for its super quick ability to give you a tasty sandwich. Not only does the toastie maker give you speedy results when it comes to making the perfect sandwich, it has also been used by some keen shoppers to cook bacon, rissoles, and chicken tenders in a mere matter of minutes.

Now another Kmart shopper has uploaded a new recipe hack to a Facebook fan group where she's managed to make gourmet-looking pastries in just a matter of minutes. To create the savoury dish, the author said she "cooks frozen chopped spinach in olive oil with garlic and onions and adds fresh ricotta cheese", saying the pastry was ready in four minutes.

"It’s either the best or the worst gadget ever cos I won’t stop eating carbs," the post was captioned. "[It's] great for pastries too!"

Kmart fans and foodies were quick to praise the idea and add their own microwave toastie cooking hacks

"I was thinking of trying a pastry dessert one time," one person said, with someone else saying "Here comes Nutella and strawberries tonight for this house."

"This post is going to make my belly hate me even more," one person joked. "This belly isn't coping with all the carb overloading but I'm prepared to test it with this one."
