To prepare this meal, simply remove the outer packaging. You can heat it in the microwave according to the package directions, typically by piercing the film and microwaving for a few minutes until thoroughly heated. Alternatively, it can be heated in an oven for a slightly crisper texture, though this method may take longer. Ensure the cod is cooked through and the grains and beans are hot before serving. It is best enjoyed immediately after heating.
