    Microwave Instructions

    Thoroughly rinse any fresh produce and pat dry. Using hands, tear spinach into smaller pieces.

    Divide spinach and 2 Tbsp. water between both provided trays. Cover with a damp paper towel and microwave covered until wilted, 1-2 minutes.

    Carefully remove from microwave. Divide pasta, onion salt, cream cheese, Bolognese, and half the Parmesan (reserve remaining for garnish) between both trays. Cream cheese will melt as meal heats. Stir to combine. Cover trays with a damp paper towel. Microwave covered until heated through, 3-4 minutes.

    Carefully remove from microwave. Add 1/4tsp. salt and a pinch pepper to both trays and stir to combine.

    In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta and chimichurri seasoning.

    To serve, dollop ricotta mixture over both trays and garnish with remaining Parmesan. Bon appétit!
