Cooking in a mug is popular these days, and it makes plenty of sense. So many folks are at home working, and mug recipes are designed to be quick and easy. If you can't go out for lunch, why not microwave a mug? The kinds of mug recipes that I'm used to making are usually of the dessert variety, but I have made eggs in a mug before. They're much easier and less messy on the stove, but some people really like making them in mugs instead.
From blueberry muffins to French toast, there are plenty of sweet foods to make in mugs. Desserts, pastries and even breakfast items are mug-worthy. But did you know that you can make savory meals in mugs, too? Little quiches and lasangas, meatloaf, mac and cheese and even pizza are all possible in mug mode. The idea I'm most excited to try is this eggplant parm in a mug!
