Pear Fontina Microed is a quick, sweet treat to enjoy with your morning latte, or for dessert after dinner.
1 Bosc pear
2 oz. medium hard cheese of your choice: Fontina, Provolone, Cheddar,
Manchego, Swiss, whatever you like!
Peel the pear. Remove the stem. Cut the pear in half lengthwise then cut out the pits and rough fibers. Place the halves in a micro safe bowl. Chop the cheese into quarter inch pieces, then pile over the indentation where the pits had been. Micro the food for two minutes. I like the pears soft, but not mushy. Eat while the cheese is still hot.
Tomato Teacup Snack tastes oh, so comforting, especially when a chill is in the air.
1 vine ripened tomato
1/16 teaspoon kosher salt
1/16 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon fresh (or dried) chopped basil
1/16 teaspoon onion powder
A few grains crushed chili pepper
1 oz. fresh Mozzarella cheese
Core the tomato. Place it in a micro safe teacup. Add salt, pepper, basil, onion powder and chili pepper to the open center. Chop the mozzarella into 1/4” pieces. Stuff it in. Put a small plate over the cup because it will spatter. Micro 2 minutes. Mix it up good with a fork.
Eat hot.
One quick succulent snack.
Manchego Cheese Spinach Toastie is crispy, magic. Great to make while entertaining friends.
1 oz. Manchego cheese
7 baby spinach leaves (rinsed and patted dry with a paper towel)
Stack the spinach leaves and roll them up like a tiny towel, then cut quarter inch slices crosswise to get slivers. Spread the slivers in the center of a micro safe dessert dish.
Cut the cheese into five slices and lay them in a star pattern on top of the spinach. Leave a hole in the center to fill when the cheese melts.
Micro for two minutes. Use a fork or a knife to pry the Toastie off the plate while it is hot and removes in one piece, ready to eat.

Zucchini Soft Chips Microed easy, quick, irresistible veggie to eat anytime, alone or with friends.
Rinse and dry the zucchinis. Cut off the ends. Cut 1/4” slices.
Paint a flat micro safe dinner plate, with olive oil.
Arrange the slices on the plate. Paintthe surface of the zucchini slices. I use a silicone brush. Add salt and pepper. Micro the plate for 15 minutes. Check after 10 minutes, because microwave ovens vary. The chips should be soft and browned when done. Transfer to a smaller plate, and eat warm. If it cools off, pop it back in the micro for 10 seconds. Or refrigerate until ready to eat, then micro for 30 seconds.
