Pampered Chef Large Micro-Cooker #2778 Reviews

My friend purchased this for me for Christmas and it sat for a few weeks because I didn't know what to do with it. Now, I use it at least once a day, but usually more often. In the morning, I crack four eggs into it with a splash of milk and some cheese. I scramble them in the cooker, and put it in the microwave for about five minutes. It makes perfect eggs every time and cleanup is a snap. No added fat either! I use it to rinse and drain canned beans. I cook frozen vegetables in it. I make potatoes for mashing in it. (Sweet potatoes and yams too!) I've also layered and made entire… read full review »

I live alone and this is perfect for cooking pasta, warming up leftovers in the microwave.  I would not want to be without it. This cooker lets me cook side dishes quickly and without burning or scorching. — I don't know how I prepared my meals before purchasing one and one of the best things is that I got to go to a party, sample delicious food and buy a product that is functional, easy to use and clean up.  — The price was a little more than I wanted to pay but after getting and using it, I decided that the price was OK.  I have had my cooker for 4 years, use it… read full review »

I was never a big microwave cooker until the first time I saw the representative use the Pampered Chef microware. I could hardly believe my eyes, nose or mouth. Could this delicious, moist chicken possibly be coming from my own microwave? — As the representative demonstrated, the right cookware and combination of ingredients can create an entire meal that can be done in mere minutes. That night, we made a chicken, rice and green bean meal for 4 servings. I'm not going to give out my secret recipe for company chicken, but I will tell you, IT IS AMAZING! — There are 2 sizes of… read full review »

This is by far my most prized possession in the kitchen.  I use mine about 4-5 times a week.  It makes clean up a breeze.  You can cook an entire meal in one dish.  I love to make my own concoction of hamburger, spaghetti sauce, honey, brown sugar, spices and frozen veggies and it all is done in a matter of minutes.  The best thing about it is you don't have to thaw the hamburger first.  You simply toss in a frozen # of hamburger, shut the lid and cook on high for 3-5 mins depending on wattage of microwave then use the mix n chop to break up the meat and put… read full review »

The Pampered Chef micro cooker gets daily use in my house.. I have both sizes (large and small) and use them constantly. — — The vented lids help keep the microwave presentable. I use them to melt butter, reheat leftovers, and to cook rice (add rice and water, set the microwave for 14 minutes, and voila! perfectly cooked rice). — — I highly recommend these pans. Present them with a cookbook or other kitchen gadget and they make a great gift for all of the cooks in your… read full review »

This is a great product - along with the small micro cooker.  I can use them to cook or reheat almost anything.  I use the small one for melting butter or for chocolate and the big one for any large boxes of rice a roni or to reheat those big bags of frozen pasta and sauces direct from the freezer.  The other great thing about this product is that clean up is always a breeze.  I never have had either of them melt or become encrusted with anything. … read full review »

It's convenient, but micro in plastic releases poisons into your food. Though this quality plastic is probably better than microwaving in your Glad or other such plastics. —… read full review »
