Fixing breaker overload
Hello.
I have a code violation/ breaker overload I would like to fix.
It is a 15amp (120V) breaker, it serves:
half of the basement, and plug inside a kitchen cabinet; 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, 1 small living room, 1 fridge (6A), microwave (1200W;10A, located in kitchen cabinet).
What would be the easiest way to fix it to be a little bit more compliant to code?

After determining available space..... the first most logical step is to get the microwave on a new circuit. Try separating the kitchen from the other rooms.
