Keep going anons.

Get an electric kettle and a hot plate, dormfag. And don't give me any shit about those kinds of things not being allowed in your dorm. They're not allowed in ANY dorm, yet everyone has them.

Kids must have gone full vagina since my college days. Afraid to have a hot plate? When I was in school we worried about getting caught with kegs and bongs...not hot plates. Grow a pair....

>>1680586
It's COLLEGE. Take some fucking risks.

Technically, anything you can cook in an oven you can cook in a microwave. The main problem with microwaves is that they heat the outside of the food too quickly. This was initially the selling point of microwaves; you could quickly heat small things, eliminating the use of a conventional oven for things like reheating leftovers. Microwaves can be used to cook things in the same manner as conventional ovens. This requires temperature probes and careful control of the power of the magnetron. Unfortunately, these features are rarely offered now, mainly because they are expensive to implement and operate. Microwaves today operate in a single power switched mode and are not very good for much other than reheating food, or ramen. Failing that, and getting a hotplate, or if you're too pussy to ignore the rules, get standalone induction 'hotplate'. They are very expensive but also very safe.

Stouffers To Include Suicide Prevention Tips On Single Serve Microwavable Meals

you can put a bowl of water in your microwave, put stuff in the bowl, boil the water, cook the stuff in the boiling water. i think you can also get a pressure cooker gadget that goes in a microwave, so stuff cooks faster because it's under higher pressure. you can take your microwave apart and make a fairly effective death ray. just say it's an engineering class project.

oatmeal, steamed vegatables

1. get an iron (the one your mom uses to iron your shirts)

OH YOU

protip: addiing salt to water makes it microwave faster

>>1680891
Protip: adding ants to a microwave makes Space Ants.

>>1680895
Fun fact: Ants have almost no water in their bodies, so they are unaffected by being microwaved.

>>1680891
Oh really? When was the last time you did that?

>>1680911
Okay, looks like I was wrong about the reason.
They simply can sense areas with high concentrations of radiation, and don't walk into them.

>>1680922
YES. Thank you. This discussion is probably still somewhere on the back pages of /ck/ and some anon refused to believe this was the reason.

>>1680925
Do you have that link to the thread? If not, what time the thread was created?

>>1680935
Can't seem to find it. This would have been somewhere around 12:00-2:00am Eastern (US) time.

>>1680956
Friday morning, that is. That's not when the thread was created, just when the discussion was happening.

you can make mashed potatos in microwave
rinse potato
wrap up in plastic bag [like super market kind--mind you the ink on the bag can have a tendency to thermal transfer... this is cool for other reasons but a pain when unintended]
nuke it! forever. about 6 min. at min.
potato will be hot and bothered, with blistered skin. eat skin too. add butter and sourcream and chives and garlic salt or whatever.... cheese to make you fat.
crush and enjoy.

Brownies, mothafucka!!!

You could make veggie chili and rice in the microwave. Making rice is easy enough so I won't go in to that part. For the veggie chili, simply soak the beans overnight, then put them in the microwave with the water and cover the bowl. Nuke on high for maybe 3 minutes or until boiling. Let stand for 10 minutes. Nuke again until boiling. Repeat this pattern one more time. Drain most of the water and toss in chopped onions, peppers, a can of diced tomatoes and your spices. Nuke for 5 minutes with the cover still on. Mix in a teaspoon of olive oil and nuke again for 5 minutes The best cover to use as a sturdy plate since the beans and tomato will do alot of popping and could easily knock aside a paper towel or plastic wrap. Nuking has the advantage of causing the beans to pop which means mixing easier. I've never actually tried cooking this recipe in the microwave but I think it'll work.

Protip: If at any point the food catches on fire, keep the microwave door closed, unplug it, walk out the room and blame someone else when the fire department comes.

oh that reminds me!
Cheap microwave containers!
Ceramic bowl + Ceramic plate.
These bastards will never melt on you, but they will gladly burn you.
Also ceramics have less chance of giving you three-tailed sperm or ass cancer than poly-epoxy plastic stuff gassing out into your food as it melts.
