    You can safely microwave eggs (poached, sunny side up, whites only, over easy, scrambled the possibilities are endless).

    Honestly just get a toaster and simply unplug it and put it away every time you use it. I got away with a coffee machine, toaster, and a microwave. You can get away with a grill and a toaster.

    Try refrigerator oatmeal - http://www.theyummylife.com/Refrigerator_Oatmeal

    Just mix it all in a container the night before, and it's ready to eat in the morning :)

    I would get a little concealed element crock pot. Crock pot is your friend. You can roast meats in it etc etc.

    You can get microwavable brown rice, mix in some quacamole and take a slice of turkey breast and cut it into bite size pieces. I have this for lunch during the week and love it. Better Oats instant plain oatmeal is great with some raisins mixed in. You can make couscous. Jennie-O turkey burgers could be cooked in the microwave and then eat without bread, just some sliced avocado on top and a little ketchup.

    Microwave recipes - I thought I had a lot but they are all for desserts :laugh: (Pre-MFP days of course)!!

    It is amazing what you can cook in a microwave - just be careful to use microwave safe dishes.

    These are some Australian sites to try for something different?

    I guess the reason they don't want open elements is the fear of fire - not a happy thought, so I would be sticking to the rules. Don't want fire.
