Convenience store owners and operators are no strangers to the demand for food options that can be eaten on the go. Over the years, the demand remains, but the options have evolved. Roller dogs and frozen burritos are quickly becoming a thing of the past, and newer offerings are becoming increasingly sought after.

We love creating all kinds of delicious, handheld menu items in our MTI test kitchen. Check out some of our favorites below that were made with our high-speed oven, the MultiChef.

French Toast Dippers

Breakfast may be the most important meal of the day, but that doesn’t mean you can’t splurge every now and then. Frozen French toast sticks are ready in less than two minutes when prepared in the MultiChef. Serve them up with maple syrup for dipping. You can even mix it up and offer your French Toast Dippers with chocolate or strawberry sauce.

Italian Stallion Pizza Slices

Just because a menu item is handheld, it doesn’t mean it won’t be filling. Sometimes a single slice of pizza can pack enough carbs and protein to fill up the hungriest patron. Our Italian Stallion Pizza consists of layers of sauce, salami, hot capicola, provolone, mozzarella, and sliced pepperoncini. Creating a flavor sensation that simply cannot be beaten! 

Buffalo Chicken Quesadilla

Buffalo Sauce is just one of those things that never seems to go out of style. People love food that really brings the heat, and we know that this Buffalo Chicken Quesadilla does just that! In under a minute, the MultiChef will toast the tortilla and melt the creamy blend of mozzarella & cheddar cheese. These handheld beauties are not only easy to eat, but they’re also easy to love. Don't limit yourself to Buffalo chicken, try switching it up with different quesadilla fillings!

Turkey Avocado Toast

Everyone thought avocado toast was just a pandemic fad that would fizzle out over time. But here we are three years later, and it is still going strong. In fact, if anything, avocado toast has evolved and dare we say flourished! No longer is this toasty treat limited to breakfast hours. By adding freshly sliced turkey and roasted red peppers on top of the mashed, seasoned avocado, you've built the perfect, healthy menu option for lunch or dinner.

MultiChef high-speed ovens are fast and economical, cutting cooking times by more than 80%. Each oven is equipped with convection, rapid impinged air, precision microwave, and constructed of high-quality stainless steel with a unique removable catalytic converter. Unlike traditional ovens, the MultiChef line is easy to operate and built to last.
