Scrambled Eggs
You can make tasty scrambled eggs in the microwave in three minutes. Whisk two eggs in a mug and add milk if you want it fluffier. Beat them together, put them in the microwave on high heat for two minutes, and stir every 30 seconds. Once piping hot, add salt and pepper, and there you are! Delicious scrambled eggs in minutes.
Chili
Put seasoned ground beef, bell peppers, canned beans, and tomatoes into a microwavable bowl. Cover with a ventilated plastic cover and microwave on high heat for 5 minutes. Once steamed, mix in some chili powder, green onions, cumin, tomato paste, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Cover, heat for a further 4 minutes and serve.
Poached Salmon
Arrange thin lemon slices in an 8″ by 8″ glass baking dish. Lay the salmon fillets on top, sprinkle with salt and add water. Once the tray is covered with a ventilated plastic wrap, heat on high power for 8 minutes. When the salmon turns pink and opaque, you can drain and serve.
