I had this happen when my son cooked a pasta dish that required water in the dish but he forgot to put the water in prior to putting it in the microwave. :) I cleaned the microwave interior with a mixture of baking soda and vingegar and let it air out and then I boiled lemon juice in a coffee mug and let it sit for awhile. It helped tremendously!

Don't put the salad in the microwave.

Microwaves essentially pervade the cooking chanmber inside the microwave oven, and excite any polar molecules, especially including water and some polar fats.
Since vegetables—salad—are nearly all water, they are exceptionally easy to heat in a microwave oven.
You might then ask: why not ...

It can be done ... just like cooking omelette in the microwave. Have to do it in 20-30 secs at a time and open the microwave door. If I am not using the steam function for the microwave, I place a glass of water next to the chicken in the microwave. Chicken comes out juicy and tasty - and cooked.
Cooking omlette is also easy. I googled and found some ...
