These stuffed peppers cooked in the microwave are a quick, simple, and good meal during a busy work week. You can use any color of pepper. Try using garbanzos instead of kidney beans for a variation of this recipe.

This microwave meatloaf recipe is quick, easy, and ready to eat in 45 minutes. It will be ready by the time you finish the creamed potatoes!

This is a super-easy, great tasting salad that can be served hot or cold. The balsamic vinegar and feta add great flavor. You can also add chopped chicken breasts to make it a complete meal.

This is a great summer recipe. It's easy and not much mess to clean up. My family loves it! The chicken stays very moist and leftovers are yummy! Serve over your favorite pasta. I serve over linguini with Alfredo sauce.

Yum! A recipe even my kids will eat and ask for more of.

If you want the yummy taste of a slowly baked potato but aren't patient enough, or don't have the know-how to bake it in an oven, this is for you. Give it 12 minutes and get a mouthwatering, taste bud-tingling treat.

Rollups of chicken, Swiss and Parmesan cheeses, ham and herbs - breaded and quickly cooked in the microwave.

Microwave Risotto is great because of its forgiving nature; if you forget it for a half hour, nothing is lost. Also, it is a wonderful clean-out-the-fridge, use-your-imagination, I-just-bounced-five-checks recipe. It reheats well too. You can use margarine or olive oil in place of the butter, and you can use apple juice or white grape juice in place of the wine.

A very good deli-style wrap. Use different meats for variation.

Microwave adapted version of recipe given to me by old friend from Ceylon. Can be baked in oven too.
