Two plates of leftovers may be re- heated together. Arrange thick or dense foods to outside edges of plate and cover with piastic wrap. Microwave at HIGH (10) for3 min- utes. Reverse position of plates (top to bottom) and rotate % turn.

Continue microwaving at HIGH

(10)for 3 to 4 minutes. Continue heating, if necessary, until hot.

Reheating two casseroles (height should be less than 3% inches) is now possibie. Cover with piastic wrap. Use staggered arrangements of food, piacing food on right side of sheif and ieft side of fioor. Refer to Heating or Reheating Guide (see inside front cover of cookbook) for

suggested microwave time per casseroie and add together the times. Microwave at HiGH (10), reversing position of foods (top to bottom) after haif of time. Aiso, heat severai smaiier bowis of ieft- overs this way, stirring and revers- ing positions after haif of time.

Two frozen individual entrees (5 to 7 oz. ea.) or two TV dinners (10 to 12 oz. ea.) are both ready to serve at the same time. Remove batter foods; cook these conventionally.

Return foii trays containing food to boxes in which they were pur- chased. Piace in oven with one TV dinner on right sheif and the sec- ond dinner on ieft fioor. Micro- wave at HiGH (10) for 6 minutes. Reverse positions (top to bottom) and rotate foods % turn. Continue microwaving at HiGH (10) for 6 min- utes. Check dinners for heating. if one dinner seems iess done than desired, return it to the box and continue heating on sheif 1 to 2 more minutes.

JW To Reheat Several Different Types of Foods Together

When heating severai different

types of food together, foods which shouid be served hot must be piaced on the oven sheif, whiie foods which are oniy warmed shouid be piaced on the fioor. This

is because microwave energy enters the oven from the top oniy. Aiso, it is important to remember

that foods absorb microwave energy at different rates. Rates can be affected by the size of the food, and its starting temperature.

Because of the varying rates you may need to start reheating a iarge or dense food a few minutes ahead of time, then add other smaiier or

iess dense foods. Alternately, if one of the severai foods you are heating seems under cooked but the others are heated satisfac-

torily, iet the underheated food continue cooking.

Heat or reheat different types of food at HiGH (10). To determine heating times, add together times for aii foods. (see heating guide inside front cover of cookbook) After haif of time, stir or rearrange foods (do not reverse positions). Check foods (top sheif especiaiiy) after 3/4of totai time and remove any which are done. Continue cooking others.

Place on shelf large or dense foods which need the most heating, such as ieftover fried chicken, casseroles of canned or ieftover vegetables, rice or pasta. Piace on oven fioor those foods which need oniy be warmed, such as bakery pies, roiis, muffins or breads.
