The microwave often gets a bad reputation . . but when you use quality containers you can seriously do magic! I started out the New Year sharing how to make a 3 course meal using the microwave in less than 30 mins.    This week I made Italian Chicken with Mixed Veggies, Herbed Rice and Poached Pears.  That’s right, with Tupperware’s Stack Cooker  you can have a quick family dinner or prep out 4 meals for the week in NO TIME!
