Microwave/11 recipes

A delicious kind of salad made with mandarin oranges, pineapple chunks, flaked coconut and whipped topping.

Tastier than anticipated. My fiance was impressed. Good to refrigerate and reheat for lunch. It's better to reheat in the oven rather than the microwave to keep the crispiness of the bread.

Sweet Gherkin Pickles recipe

Made these quiche tarts for Sean last week, and he absolutely loved these mini savoury tarts. I made my own biscuit baking mix (see the link below), and followed the recipe exactly. These tarts are good to freeze as well. Whenever feeling hungry, pop one or two into microwave. Definitely a keeper!

A tasty yet good-for-you dessert that will have you hooked after every serving!

Easy Microwave Bacon Potato Soup recipe

They are so easy to make and taste amazingly delicious. Perfect treats when you host a party or a small snack at any time.

This decadent brownie recipe was recently clipped from my local newspaper.

This is not your classic bundt cake that's packed with not-so-good-for-you ingredients. The cake is made with 100% whole wheat flour, grapeseed oil, Greek yogurt, low-fat cream cheese, and fresh raspberries. The ganache doesn't have any butter or cream, it contains cocoa powder, honey, grapeseed oil and Greek yogurt. Super chocolaty, fudgy, moist and packed with goodness.

These savory muffins are great for breakfast. They can be made in advance, frozen then defrosted in the microwave in a flash if you have a chance before they're gobbled up. The pesto, basil/garlic/pine nuts really create a wow factor. They're hard to resist.

Quick and easy trout with lemon, butter and toasted almonds.

An easy classic that's even easier using a microwave oven.

Yum! I added some sliced red bell pepper strips to give the dish more colour. Used fresh broccoli instead of mixed frozen veggies, and added a drizzle of sesame oil and rice vinegar in the end as well as some sesame seeds. Enjoyed the dish with a bowl of rice, so good!

No need for a double boiler with this quick and easy recipe. Its delicious lemony burst is wonderful on scones, English muffins and just about anything you want to give a little zing to.
