He also adds a fun and unexpected twist to this dish by creating a mac and cheese pizza, complete with a microwaved pizza crust and a topping of mac and cheese.

For those with a sweet tooth, George demonstrates how to make a decadent chocolate lava cake in a mug. This impressive dessert can be made entirely in a microwave and is sure to impress guests with the perfect combination of rich, gooey chocolate and velvety smooth cake.

As the episode continues, George showcases even more microwave-based recipes, including a healthy and easy breakfast option in the form of a veggie egg scramble, a tasty and quick-to-prepare lunchtime sammie, and a flavorful chicken teriyaki dinner dish.

Throughout the episode, George constantly reminds viewers that cooking with a microwave is not only convenient and time-saving but can also result in delicious and healthy meals. With a bit of creativity and experimentation, the microwave can be a fantastic tool for any home cook.
