Advantages of preparing food in the microwave
Microwaves cook food quickly by using microwave radiation (low-frequency electromagnetic radiation) to heat the water molecules in food. This causes friction between the molecules and makes them move more rapidly—and that means they gain more kinetic energy. So while cooking time is shorter than it would be with an oven or stovetop, the overall amount of energy used is still less than with traditional cooking methods like boiling or frying in oil. Plus, because there are no flames involved there’s no risk of burning anything; instead all you need is exact measurements so there aren’t any leftovers at all!
The right ingredients are the key to a tasty meal
You can make microwave meals that are healthy, all you need to do is stock up on the right ingredients. First, you should choose whole grains, legumes and veggies for your ingredients. Then prepare them for a microwave meal by chopping them into bite-sized pieces and cooking them until they’re soft enough to eat. Finally, look for quick recipes that don’t take long to get from start to finish (some dishes will be ready in just a few minutes).

Vegetable Curry Mug Cake
This microwaveable meal is easy to make, and it’s vegan and gluten-free. You’ll need a microwavable bowl, so you can heat it up in the microwave in just minutes. Add some vegetables, curry powder or paste, and coconut cream to your bowl along with some water; cover with plastic wrap; cook for 3 minutes or until cooked through. Serve this curry mug cake with rice or naan bread (if you’re not gluten-free). If you want to add even more veggies to this dish—or if you’re feeling especially hungry—you could also add some lentils as well!
Mug cake for dessert
A mug cake is a single serving of cake, which you can make in the microwave. It’s great for dessert, or whenever you need some sweet relief. They’re easy to make, and they’ll give you something to do while your main dish is heating up.
You will need:
- an egg (it doesn’t have to be room temperature)
- 1 tablespoon of oil (I recommend vegetable oil)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (or other flavoring such as lemon juice or almond extract)
- 1 tablespoon sugar (or other sweetener such as honey or stevia)
1 tablespoon of flour (recommend whole wheat) 2 tablespoons water (or other liquid such as soy milk or juice)
How to make it:
- Put all of the ingredients except for the flour into a large bowl and mix well with a fork or whisk until you have a smooth batter.
- Add about half of the flour, mixing well (you should end up with something that resembles pancake batter).
- Microwave on high for about 90 seconds, or until the cake becomes firm but not completely dry. If you want an undercooked cake, try microwaving it for less time (around 50-60 seconds).
