Pour a little water into a microwave-safe bowl and add a pinch of salt.

Crack an egg into the bowl gently to keep the yolk intact.

Poke one or two tiny holes in the yolk with a fork or toothpick.

Microwave on medium-high power for 1 minute, checking at the 1-minute mark.

If needed, microwave for an additional minute until cooked.

Use a towel or gloves to carefully take the bowl out.

For the bread dish, press down the center of a slice of sandwich bread on a plate to create an indent.

Crack an egg into the indent and poke a hole in the yolk.

Microwave on medium-high power for 40 to 60 seconds, adjusting time for yolk preference.

For creamy scrambled eggs, cut bell peppers into small pieces and microwave with butter for 1 minute.

Crack three eggs into a bowl, add milk, salt, black pepper, and chili powder, and stir well.

Pour the egg mixture into a shallow microwave-safe plate and cook on medium power for 1 minute, stirring lightly halfway through.

Add bell peppers and shredded cheese, then microwave for another 30 to 45 seconds.

For crispy bacon and fried eggs, lay bacon slices on a heat-resistant glass tray and microwave on high for 2 minutes.

Crack one or two eggs into the bacon fat left in the tray and microwave for 1 to 2 minutes, depending on yolk preference.
