Heat & Eat Tips!
- Keep foods cold until reheating time. Serve immediately when hot.
- Preheat oven to 350° (unless otherwise noted).
Remove plastic lids and cover product with foil. Place small foil pans on a baking sheet and place in preheated oven. Heating times vary, depending on oven calibration, number of items in oven and other variables. - All reheated foods must reach an internal temperature of at least 165° for 15 seconds within a two-hour window. Use a properly calibrated thermometer to monitor the temperature. Check items periodically while reheating. Fully cooked items should be reheated only once. If microwaving, follow reheating instructions for your microwave.
