Bacon microwaves well. Lay on a plate, on top of a sheet of kitchen paper. Put another sheet on top. Four rashers 1-3 minutes, depending how crispy you want it.
So I'd go for potato, beans and bacon. Melt cheese into the beans for additional potency.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

You're a contractor. There's no such thing as extortionate restaurant prices, only extortionate expense claims.Originally posted by Criticular View PostImagine you stay in a hotel with extortionate restaurant prices, but free access to microwave. There are no external restaurants within miles around the hotel but there is Tesco Extra next door. What food you buy there to microwave? I already got bored with Indian ready meals.
