Did you know that you really can cook in the microwave . . . and it's yummy?

So I ordered a couple of pans that are supposed to be great to use in the microwave. Are you kidding me? I don't like meat that is cooked in the microwave. Sure, I'll eat popcorn or steamed veggies, but meat? i don't think so (at least that was my thought pre-dinner)

First attempt - pork tenderloin. I cooked a pork tenderloin in the microwave in 12 minutes and you know what???!!! It was super yummy! I'm not sure what excited me more . . . the yummy food or the fact that my dinner, which usually would have taken at least 45 minutes in the oven, was finished literally before my oven would have been pre-heated!

I cannot wait to try my next attempt . . . chocolate molten lava cake!

Talk to you soon . . . happy cooking!
