I actually have a pretty good diet. I only drink water, and i eat burritos and put lasagna in there as an example. If you want pictures, id be more than glad to post them -_- . Needless to say you completely missed the point of my topic.
OT : Thanks for the recipe. I shall try it. If anyone has recipes to add, please do so. Im getting tired of the same food.
The longest I've gone is 15 minutes for those Uncle Ben's rice packages. Turns out pretty good. Other than that, I just use it for reheating or speed defrosting a piece of meat.
----Has anyone successfully cooked a decent meal in a microwave for more than an hour? ----
My mother use to cook roasts, chickens and even small turkeys in the microwave. It was back in the late 1980's, and I'm not sure if it was any run of the mill microwave. I remember it was advertised as being able to cook such meats had a temperature probe you could stick in the bird to measure the internal temperature as it cooked. The results were a bit hit or miss, you tended to get really dried out spots and other spots that were undercooked.
My wife makes roasted chicken in the microwave, and the cook time on that is around 30 minutes. She has a special container for it, and it always comes out juicy and awesome.
Cooking things in the microwave from Frozen on max power for 30+ minutes though? Not likely to end well >_>

Anything you can cook on a stove or in an oven, I can whip up in a microwave, except cakes and make bread rise. There are microwave plastic covers that you can buy from Walmart, K-mart, etc., to put over your food as you cook. Helps when making meatloafs, roasted chicken, pork chops, etc. You might cook something for an hour, but not straight through -- 25 minute intervals to keep from drying out. I cook full meals by stacking some of them separately on top of each other -- meat, starch, veggie -- little rice pudding for dessert.
Anything with a skin, pierce it. Can even make boil eggs in mine.
Update: everything depends on how many watts you're cooking with.

But I have this fantastic recipe:

Yeah, seriously OP - an hour in a microwave ain't right. You either misunderstood or it's a typo or it's a joke.
i use one with that little spin thingie in it, so i don't have to turn the stuff. I've cooked many tv type dinners and tons of other stuff. It's not as good as home made, not meant to be.
The hungry man stuff always ends up turning out great, if i can remember to pull out the brownie after 5-10 minutes. pretty good really.
I cook pasta for about 10mins thats longest I keep anything in the microwave.
That's not true. There are plenty of very good recipes for microwave oven."decent meal" and "microwave" dosnt fit in one sentence
Making lasagna box or buritos in microwave surely cannot be called decent food.
I did this once. But in stages.
Place popcorn inside for 3 min...trow it out and give it to friends....trow inside another popcorn...do this 20 times and whola...you cooked for one hour.
Don't sweat the details!!!
1 hour in the microwave will completely roast anything you put in it.
You don't want to even attempt that.
Not only that but your microwave will be dead, the metal wires inside will fry when the food you're cooking dries out.
Those party size stouffers lasagnas take like an hour. Ive done it many times. No problems here.
If the package says 2.5m and you do 3.5m... you must have a really old microwave. I too love those microwave burritos and in my microwave, at full power, 1.25m is more then enough to burn the holy bajesus out of my mouth. I have tried some meals in the microwave instead of the oven. The results are what you expect, sub-par compared to oven. But if you are hungry in NOW, and can't wait 45min - 1hr, 25min or less in the microwave sounds like a good idea. Good idea, but not great tasting.
Give and take.
Sure you can. This is how I lived when I was at school: http://www.buzzfeed.com/arielknutson...nacks-in-a-mug
