Microwave Cheeseburger & Stuffed Shrimp
On November 17, 1986, Mom appeared on Murphy in Morning, a popular morning show in the Tampa Bay area. She demonstrated two recipes from Microwave Cooking for One. The Cheeseburger recipe appears below. You can find the recipe for the Stuffed Shrimp in the Contents & Recipes section of this site.
If you are trying to find the browning utensils and menu-ettes used in the demonstration, we offer information on how to find those discontinued microwave utensils shown in this video. We also offer instructions on how to use the CorningWare browning utensils.
