Potato Crisps - Microwave-Style

I'm intrigued by this - I'll be giving it a go very soon!

Ingredients:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 potato, sliced paper thin (peel optional)
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste

Method:
1. Pour the vegetable oil into a plastic bag (a produce bag works well). Add the potato slices, and shake to coat.
2. Coat a large dinner plate lightly with oil or cooking spray. Arrange potato slices in a single layer on the dish.
3. Cook in the microwave for 3 to 5 minutes, or until lightly browned (if not browned, they will not become crisp). Times will vary depending on the power of your microwave. Remove chips from plate, and toss with salt (or other seasonings). Let cool. Repeat process with the remaining potato slices. You will not need to keep oiling the plate.

Chocolate Cake in a Mug

Sometimes you just want a slice of chocolate cake, but don't want to make an entire cake. Well, the solution is here, thanks to Ally - a chocolate cake made in a mug, and it takes less than 5 minutes from thinking "Hmm, I want cake" to sitting down and eating it!

Ingredients
•1 - Coffee Mug
•4 - tablespoons flour
•4 - tablespoons sugar
•2 - tablespoons baking cocoa
•1 - egg
•3 - tablespoons milk
•3 - tablespoons oil
•3 -4 - tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
•Small splash of vanilla extract

Directions
1.Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well . Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
2.Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.
3.Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla, and mix again.
4.Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 2 minutes at 1000 watts.

Personally, I just bung everything in the mug at the same time, give it a good ol' mix, and toss it in the microwave. Delicious!
