Using the microwave for one minute on my unit consumes about 16 amp-hours of battery bank. To put that in perspective that's 2 hours of charging from a 100 watt solar panel in perfect solar conditions. Solar systems are generally rated at 5 hours per day (even though charging starts just after dawn, and may last until dusk, in a well designed installation).
It may be better to have more battery bank, and probably more solar to cook with the microwave.
