Smart Microwave Cleaning Tip Using... A Coffee Filter?

An Easy Way To Keep Your Microwave Clean

We'll be using our microwave instead of the oven a lot more thanks to the heat, and that means we're going to have to work harder to keep it clean. But there it one thing you can do to help it stay splatter-free.

Editor's note: As always be super careful when dealing with a hot microwave.
