Does anyone have any good recipes for cooking in the microwave?
This is a very hearty soup and needs only garlic bread, and perhaps a salad, to complete the meal. 1/3 cup chopped red or green bell peppers 1/4 cup chopped onions 1 pkg. (8 oz.) light cream cheese, cubed 1 cup skim milk 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules 1 cup very hot water 1 can (8 oz.) cream-style corn 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon black pepper Place pepper and onion in microwave casserole. Cover and cook for 1-2 minutes on High power (100%) until vegetables soften. Add cream cheese and milk. Heat on Medium-high power (70%) for 3-6 minutes, stirring once or twice, until cheese is melted and mixture is smooth. Dissolve bouillon granules in hot water. Stir into cream cheese mixture. Add remaining ingredients and continue to heat on Medium-high power (70%), stirring occasionally, for 5-10 minutes or until soup is very hot.
ITALIAN STYLE CHICKEN BREASTS 2 eggs, slightly beaten 1/2 c. seasoned bread crumbs 1/4 c. Parmesan cheese 1 can tomato sauce 1 tsp. Italian seasoning 1/4 tsp. garlic powder Dip chicken breasts in eggs, then crumb mixture. To make the crumb mixture, combine the bread crumbs and the Parmesan cheese. Microwave in 1 1/2 quart casserole, loosely covered with wax paper, for 5 minutes. Turn over and cover with sauce. To make the sauce, combine the tomato sauce, Italian seasoning and garlic powder. Put over top of chicken; cover loosely and cook 4 minutes. Place slices of Mozzarella cheese on each chicken breast and cook 2 minutes. Let stand 3 to 4 minutes, covered. Enjoy!
