3. Place a microwave bacon rack in the microwave oven, and center the hamburger plate on it. (This will allow the microwaves to cook from the bottom.)

4. Cover with a microwave lid and cook on HIGH (1200W) for 9 - 10 minutes. Stick a toothpick into the meat. If clear juice comes out, the hamburgers are done.

5. Place the hamburgers on the buns with lettuce and oil-packed sun dried tomatoes. Serve with optional ingredients, as you desire.

* When you cook hamburger in the microwave, do not over mix the ground beef, otherwise the hamburger texture will be tough.
