I try to do a load of cooking during a day so I have choices to nuke up during the week … Saves on dishes !!! … Plus if ya plan for it to be microwaved at a later date , when ya cook it accordingly , it turns out pretty good … I have a good micro wave with a good number of settings …
There are , of course , some things ya just can’t do in a microwave … Burgers … Anything that is traditionally fried or deep fried , like onion rings , side bacon , of course … ( Peameal bacon ya can do , if you ‘ have to ‘, but it lacks that ‘ browning ‘ ) , Pizza … Even reheated slices … The dough ends up chewy as fuck !!! … French Fries … And various others …
But many things can been done with relative success …If ya ‘ slightly under cook the meats , add some butter and a teaspoon or two of water on precooked veggies , and come up with a few tricks for various other things … Things turn out reasonably well … Here’s what I got into today …
Spicy Potato Wedges , Roast Beef , Hot dogs and smoked sausages , plus seasoned pork chops … The Pork / bacon / hot dogs and sausage were done in the frying pan ( Too cold for BBQin’ the dogs and sausage ! ) …
The wedges and the roast were done in my buddy’s ‘ Airwave Cooker ‘ ( similar to this one ) … Great time saver and does a great job too ! ..
Then needed a couple of sides to go go withe meats , the potato wedges are a good munch on their own … The veggies and pasta was done were done stove top …
Garlic Fettuccine noodles and mixed vegetables …
With my usual stash of bacon , eggs and english muffins for breakfasts … I’m good for the rest of the week now … 3 – 5 minutes in the microwave and it’s just one plate , a fork and knife to wash and I’m DONE !!! …
