2 Add the Rice and Sauce
Carefully remove trays from oven. Drain any excess liquid. Trays will be hot! Use a utensil.
Carefully massage rice in bag to break up any clumps. Remove rice from packaging. Evenly divide rice, tomato sauce, chimichurri seasoning, 1/2 tsp. salt, butter, and vegetable base between both trays and stir to combine. Top both trays evenly with cheese. -
3 Bake the Meal
Bake both trays again uncovered in hot oven until sausage reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 15-18 minutes.
Carefully remove trays from oven. Bon appétit!
