Single Serving Quiche In A Cup
Make sure your mug is safe to use in the microwave.
Turn the mug over. It should say “microwave safe.” If it doesn’t, fill the mug with water and microwave on the highest setting for 1 minute. If the mug is cool enough to handle, it’s safe to use; if not, try another mug. Never microwave a mug with metallic decorations.
Always use hot pads when removing anything from the microwave. Even if your mug isn’t hot, the contents are, and you just don’t want to take the chance of burning yourself.
Times may vary slightly depending on your microwave and your mug. This recipe was tested in a 1,000-watt microwave, and the mug size used was 12 ounces.
Enjoy hot out of the microwave, right from the mug.
