Reheated Salisbury Steak with Mac and Cheese

A frozen dinner from the shelf that needs only gentle reheating to become a warm, filling plate. The beef patty and creamy pasta are already cooked; your job is to bring them back to life in minutes without drying them out.

Serves 2. 12 minutes, 2 at the stove.

You need

From your shelf

  • 1 box Salisbury steak with macaroni & cheese, salisbury steak (Lean Cuisine)

Staples

  • 2 tablespoons water

  1. Remove the frozen tray from its box and peel back the film halfway to vent steam. Place the tray on a microwave-safe plate if the tray itself is not microwave-safe, and set the microwave to fifty percent power.
  2. Microwave for ten minutes at fifty percent power, stopping halfway through to stir the macaroni and cheese and rotate the tray a quarter turn, then check the beef patty for warmth in the center.
  3. If the beef is not warm throughout or the cheese sauce has not loosened, microwave for one more minute at fifty percent power and stir again.

Note This is as-is reheating of a frozen dinner; serve as it comes or add a side of steamed broccoli or a green salad if you want vegetables. Leftovers keep in the refrigerator for one day; reheat gently on the stovetop with two tablespoons of water to avoid further drying.
