An easy way to get rid of food build up in your microwave is to steam it!
The easiest way to clean your microwave is to steam it – and it is SO easy! It takes all of 10 minutes, with some water and lemon or vinegar.
Place a cup of water with a few tablespoons of vinegar and a few drops of lemon juice in the microwave and boil it for 3-5 minutes.
Leave the door closed for another 5-10 minutes to let the acidic steam do it’s work – this is great to do while loading the dishwasher and wiping down the counters.
After 5-10 minutes, open the door and wipe everything down with a dishcloth.
We try to do this once every week or two, depending on how often the microwave gets used. It keeps the inside nice and clean!
