If you hate when your microwaved pasta, soup, or any other liquid meal splatters all over the inside of your oven because the paper towel blew off, try a paper plate instead. Buy those cheap ones (that you wouldn’t serve guests) at the Dollar Store. Keep these handy as covers for your microwaved meals. They are sturdier than paper towels and will catch any splatters. When the microwave dings you are done! No messy clean up. Just toss the plate and enjoy your meal.
