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 antibiotic free chicken, pat dry. Cook until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes per side.

  • If using filets mignon or sirloin steaks, pat dry. Cook until steak reaches desired doneness, or 4-6 minutes per side for medium/medium-well. Rest, 3 minutes. Steak thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

  1. 1

    Start the Vegetables

    Cut potatoes into 1/4" wedges and pat dry.

    Place wedges on prepared baking sheet. Toss with 2 tsp. olive oil, ranch seasoning, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Spread into a single layer.

    Roast in hot oven, 20 minutes.

    While wedges roast, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Coarsely crush croutons.

    Core tomatoes, halve lengthwise, and use a spoon to scoop out insides.

    Peel, halve, and mince shallot.

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add spinach in batches (don't overflow the pan) and stir occasionally until wilted, 2-3 minutes.

    Stir in softened cream cheese, 2 Tbsp. water, and a pinch of pepper until combined, 60-90 seconds.

    Remove from burner. Transfer spinach mixture to a heat-safe mixing bowl. Wipe pan clean and reserve.

  3. 3

    Finish the Vegetables

    Evenly fill tomatoes with spinach mixture, then evenly top with croutons.

    After 20 minutes, carefully remove sheet from oven. Flip wedges and push to one side of sheet. Sheet and wedges will be hot! Use a utensil.

    Place tomatoes on now-empty side of sheet.

    Roast in hot oven until wedges are tender and tomatoes have browned, 10-12 minutes.

    Carefully remove sheet from oven.

    While vegetables roast, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Cook the Steaks

    Pat steaks dry. Season both sides with garlic salt and a pinch of salt and pepper.

    Place another medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add steaks to hot pan. Cook until steaks reach desired doneness, or 4-6 minutes per side for medium/medium-well.

    Steak thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for doneness sooner. Transfer steaks to a plate. Rest, 3 minutes.

    Keep pan over medium heat; no need to wipe clean.

  5. 5
