Quick microwave cooked meatloaf
1 lb hamburger
                      1/2 c uncooked oatmeal or two slices of torn up bread
             1/2 diced onion
salt, pepper and garlic powder
      1 egg
               1/8 c catsup
               Mix all together and place in a glass loaf dish, cover
                   with a paper towel wrapped around and across the top.
              Cook for about 20 minutes or until done. Drain off
          fluid or soak it up with absorbent paper towels.
              This is a very good meatloaf.

Chili
Fry hamburger meat (as much as you want)
with salt, a cut up onion, and cut up bell pepper
until meat is brown and onion and pepper
is done. Drain grease off and blot with a paper
towel to remove most of grease. Put in a
pot and add a can of "chili ready" tomatoes
(I use Best Buy), a little chili pepper, as much as
you like and a can of pinto beans.  Add a
little water and bring to boil,
then simmer for awhile. Good with
crackers on a cold day.

Easy quick potato ideas
                      Cook med potato in microwave for 4-6 minutes (wash,
                     pierce with fork and place on a paper towel to cook.)
                      When done, peel, dice and put butter, salt and pepper
                      on them. Serve as a quick side dish.

               Sweet potato (baked in microwave)
                A sweet potato is excellent cooked in the microwave.
                  Wash, pierce with a fork and place on a paper towel.
                   Cook for 10-15 minutes depending on the size. Cook
               until tender. To serve, place on dish and slice into
  rings and place butter between the slices.
Salt to taste. Delicious!

     More ideas
               Steak (My way)
                 I like to just salt and pepper a good steak, sear on
                 both sides it in a cast iron skillet. Add a cup of hot
                   water, cover with a lid and leave the burner on high.
                      Cook until the water is just gone. Turn off burner and
                         put your just baked microwave potato halves sliced side
                           down where the steak has been cooked. the heat from the
                skillet will brown the potatoes just right. Place the
                 meat on top while they are browning. Add a salad,
                  french bread and dessert. Your meal is done and is
      delicious!

       Pork ideas
        Quick Breaded Porkchops
                           (From freezer to table in a few minutes)
   2-4 boneless porkchops (fresh or frozen)
salt, pepper
                  1 egg mixed with 1/4 c skim milk
Coating;
                            1/2 c crushed corn flakes mixed with 1/8 c flour
                  1/8 inch oil in skillett
                  Cook porkchops in microwave right in the package
                      until the thin plastic wrap balloons up and the sticker
            turns brown. The pink should be gone from the
                porkchops. Heat oil in skillet. Pat pork chops dry
                    with paper towel. Salt and pepper and dip them into
                     milk and egg mixture ,then in the flour and cornflake
                 mixture. Fry in hot oil until brown. The porkchops
                      should be mostly cooked in the microwave. Serve with
      stove-top stuffing cooked in the microwave!
     Add a salad and dessert. Your meal is done.

                           Quick and super easy pork chop recipe
                                (or can use tenderized round steak filets)
                       Take 2-4 boneless pork chops out of the freezer, put
                       them in a 2 qt casserole and pour 1 can of cream of
                    mushroom soup and 1 can of water over them.
                          Put the lid on and cook in microwave for 30 minutes
                     or until about half of the liquid is gone. The meat
                     will be done, tender and the soup makes excellent
                          gravy as is. Add a vegetable, salad, french bread and
          dessert and you are all set for a good feast.
