Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F

Customize It Instructions

  • If using roasted chicken breast, remove from packaging and microwave until warm, 1-2 minutes. Add to salad and combine.

  • If using bacon, line a plate with a paper towel. Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add bacon to hot pan. Flip occasionally until crisp and bacon reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 6-8 minutes. Transfer to towel-lined plate to remove excess oil. Add to salad as desired.

    Make the Salad

    Thoroughly rinse any fresh produce and pat dry. Place corn in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave until warmed through, 30-60 seconds. Core tomato and cut into 1/2" dice. Combine spinach, tomato, corn, and onion with dressing. Garnish with cheese and tortilla strips. Bon appétit!
