Convenience Food Guide

1.Most convenience foods can be reheated by microwave only, since they are already cooked. Always use microwave safe containers (glass or plastic). For foods needing browning or crisping, conventional baking is recommended.

2.Remove food from foil containers over 3/4-in. high, and place in microwave safe container.

3.Amounts can be increased. To cook multiple packages, add times together. Check at minimum time,
