Personally, I hate cleaning my microwave. I usually have my husband do it. You see, I’m awfully short. And my microwave is one of those under-the-counter ones – I love it, but I absolutely can’t reach to clean the whole inside. But now. I. have. a. method. In three easy steps too – couldn’t be easier!
- Cut a lemon in half. Reserve half of it for some other use. Place other half of it in a microwave-safe bowl, cut side up. Cover with water.
- Place the bowl in the microwave, and zap it on high for 5 minutes.
- Remove bowl (careful! It’s hot!) and discard contents. Use a paper towel or cleaning rag to wipe down the inside of the microwave.
Now wasn’t that easy?
