Good Idea: How to Really Reheat Pizza in a Skillet or on a Griddle
[Photograph: Ideas in Food] I've reheated leftover pizza in a skillet before, but I'd never thought of flipping it and cooking the cheese side, too. Aki and Alex from Ideas in Food came up with this simple "why didn't I think of that!?!" way to reheat slices. Quote: I could simply flip the pizza over.

The break room was out of paper towels at work today. So, to microwave my square slice, I improvised.

Bonus: The wax lining on the inside prevents melted cheese from sticking....What to Tip on a Pizza Delivery
