Abstract
A freestanding shelving unit for supporting a first and second foodstuff within a microwave oven having an internal oven compartment with a support surface. The unit includes a generally planar, lower base member and a generally planar, upper platform member. The base member has a top surface for receiving the first foodstuff, a bottom surface receivable on the support surface of the oven compartment, and an outer periphery defining a proximal and a distal edge. The upper platform member has a top surface for receiving the second foodstuff, a bottom surface, and an outer periphery defining a proximal and a distal edge. A yoking portion is provided to extend from a first end supported at the proximal edge of the base member to a second end supporting the upper platform member at its proximal edge a spaced-apart distance from the base member. The upper platform member extends freely from the yoking portion at least partially over the base member.
