- 1 whole Lemon (optional, for a fresh scent)
Directions
Step 1
Pour 2 cups of water into a microwave-safe bowl.
Step 2
Add 1/2 cup of white vinegar to the water.
Step 3
If using lemon, cut it in half, squeeze the juice into the mixture, and place the squeezed halves into the bowl.
Step 4
Place the bowl in the microwave.
Step 5
Heat the mixture on high power for 5 minutes. The steam from the mixture will loosen food splatters and stains.

After the timer goes off, leave the microwave door closed for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the steam to work its magic.
Step 7
Carefully remove the bowl from the microwave using oven mitts, as it will be very hot.
Step 8
Wipe down the inside of the microwave with a damp sponge or cloth. Any stuck-on residue should come off easily.

Dry the interior with a clean towel and enjoy your sparkling microwave!
