Microwave Recipes  (5)

The humble microwave is often overlooked when cooking. It's usually relegated to defrosting, reheating baked beans or heating a ready meal. However, you can do so much more with a microwave. They're quick, cheap to run, and, unlike air fryers and slow cookers, you probably already have a microwave in your kitchen. In the microwave, you can cook hearty meals and desserts in very little cooking time, making them perfect for busy weeknights. Plus, you can save money by using the microwave instead of your oven. While you can’t use them for everything, you can use the microwave for more than baked beans or tinned ravioli.
