How To Cook Frozen Vegetables In The Microwave

1. 1

   Put vegetables into a covered, glass casserole or other suitable microwave cooking dish with a lid. Add water if you are making a solid, dense vegetable like Brussels sprouts or if you like your veggies soft-textured.

2. 2

   Microwave on high for 4-5 minutes. Stir. Repeat twice. The vegetables should now be hot through but still bright-colored and firm.

3. 3

   Continue the repeats if softer veggies are desired.

4. 4

   Note -- microwaves vary tremendously. Ultra-high power versions will take less time. Older, lower-power versions will require more. Adjust so that you have 3 cook-stir cycles for the most even results.

5. 5

   Serve plain or add whatever seasonings or sauces you desire.
