Convenience Food Guide
1. Most convenience foods can be reheated by microwave only, since they are already cooked. Always use microwave safe utensils (glass or
plastic). For foods needing browning or crisping, conventional baking is recommended.
2. Remove food from foil containers over 3/4-inch high and place in microwave safe dish.
