1-1/2 pounds small new potatoes

MICROWAVE MEATLOAF

INGREDIENTS:

8 oz. can tomato sauce
¼ cup brown sugar
1 tsp. prepared mustard
2 eggs
2 lbs. ground beef or turkey
1 tbsp. minced onion (or medium onion, minced)
¼ cup bread or cracker crumbs
1 tsp. salt

DIRECTIONS:

Mix together the tomato sauce, brown sugar and mustard in a small bowl, then set aside. In a large mixing bowl lightly beat the eggs, then add the ground beef, minced onion, bread crumbs, salt and half of the tomato sauce mixture, reserving the other half. Thoroughly mix together - I prefer to use my hands, but some folks are squeamish about that, and if so, use a spoon or fork to mix well. Then put the meat mix in a 2-quart microwave-safe casserole dish and pour remaining tomato sauce on top. Cook uncovered on high/maximum power for 12-14 minutes. Let stand covered for an additional 10 minutes before serving.

DESSERT IN THE MICROWAVE

INGREDIENTS:

1 box spice cake mix (or yellow cake mix if you don't care for spice)
1 20 oz. can apple pie filling
4 eggs
 
DIRECTIONS:

You can mix this in a bowl or right in a microwaveable bundt pan.

Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl or a greased (I use Pam) microwaveable bundt pan. Bake at high power for 5 minutes and on 50% power for 5 minutes. The top will be a little wet looking. It should be firm to touch, like a cake baked in a conventional oven. It will continue to cook after you take in out of the microwave. Don't overcook. Let cake sit for 5 minutes and then turn out on plate.

You can frost with powdered sugar or your favorite frosting.
