The Sims Wiki:Sandbox

Toaster ovens are small appliances that can be used to cook food in The Sims and The Sims 2. They can be found in buy mode under "Appliances -> Small appliances", and must be placed on counters. In The Sims 2, Cooking skill points can be earned from using a toaster oven.

Toaster ovens are treated as a sort of stove. In The Sims, a toaster oven can make quick meals or steak and beans like any other stove. A household can have a toaster oven and a full-scale stove, but if this is done, the player will have no control over which one the Sims use. In The Sims 2, a toaster oven can only prepare TV dinners, toaster pastries, grilled cheese sandwiches, pork chops, salmon, and fish dishes from The Sims 2: Seasons. If a household has a toaster oven and a full scale stove, clicking on the toaster oven does not ensure that the Sim will use it. If FreeTime is installed, toaster ovens cannot be tinkered with.
