To prepare, remove the outer packaging. You can heat this dish in a conventional oven or a microwave. For oven preparation, place the container on a baking sheet and heat according to package directions until thoroughly warmed through. If using a microwave, vent the film and heat on high power, stirring halfway through, until hot. Allow to stand for a minute before serving.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike fresh eggplant dishes that require individual preparation of each component, this frozen option offers pre-cooked and seasoned elements. The sun-dried tomato sauce provides a distinct tangy and sweet flavor profile that complements the roasted vegetables and eggplant differently than a marinara or pesto.
