This is by far the easiest way you will ever clean your microwave and kitchen sink drain. It will take you right around 5 minutes!
Start with a microwave-safe container of water, about 4 cups or so.
Grab some limes (or lemons). If you use these little cooking limes, you´ll use about 1 per cup of water.
Cut the limes in half.
Juice the limes. I use a lime juicer, but you can use your hands. It doesn´t matter if the seeds fall in the water.
Put the bowl in the microwave, uncovered, for 3 minutes. While it´s in there, wipe down the outside of your microwave. If it takes you longer than three minutes, you´re not doing this often enough!!
Once the microwave beeps, set your timer for 2 minutes. Don´t open your microwave yet. While you´re waiting for the timer to go off, wash your cutting board, knife and juicer.
Once the two minutes is up, wipe down the inside of your microwave. The grime should slide right off. If it´s super dirty, you might need to dip your rag in the lime water and then wipe down. Microwave done.
Now get out your baking soda.
Grab that bowl of lime water and dumb some baking soda in there, maybe about 1/4 to 1/2 cup or so. It will fizz. Now dump the mixture down your kitchen drain. Flush with hot water. Done.
Easy, right? What will you do with all the time I just saved you, not to mention the lack of toxic fumes??
