Cleaning a stovetop is not fun, especially when you've waited too long to do it and you can literally see a week's worth of dinners splattered across the range. Here's one quick tip to make cleaning a breeze.
Line the bottom of your burners with foil so that all the drips from everyday use are caught instead of caked onto your range. If you know you're going to make an extra messy meal like spaghetti, you can always line your entire stove top with foil so you can simply toss it after cooking for easy clean up. This trick beats baked on stains any day. No elbow grease required.
And here's a bonus idea. Line the bottom of your oven with foil to catch spills. Replace after each mess.
Moms, how do you keep your stovetops in tiptop shape?

Quoting amy7243:Great tips!! We have a flat top and I have a scrubbing cream that works great to keep it clean.
Same here...
I've used foil in the bottom of the oven, but it never dawned on me to use it on the stove top. I hate that this oven didn't come with the drip pans. They are great for a quick clean up.
What a great idea! Honestly I never thought of that but am so doing it now!
I used to use foil under my burners, but it made those catch bowls (or whatever they are called) turn rusty after a while. So I just do my clean up the hard way.
