When I got married, I was too young to legally cook in the state of Texas, so I had a lot to learn. Microwaves had been out for a few years (shortly after the last dinosaur died) so I tried a few experiments. One of the recipes I attempted to make was one for Microwave Meatloaf and let me tell you, as soon as I finish throwing up, it was NOT a good idea. It was very thoughtful of the cookbook writer to suggest covering the loaf of meat with a layer of ketchup camouflage, but it wasn't enough. What I didn't realize was that microwaves don't brown stuff, and white ground beef just doesn't fly. Trust me on this one.
Erica, it's been so long ago and it was so traumatic that I've mentally blocked the details. If you feel the need to try it, at least I know that I tried to warn you.
Hahaha!
ReplyDeleteRemind me again, what's the story on that?? Love you.
