To prepare, remove the outer packaging and any film. If microwaving, follow the instructions on the package, typically heating on high for a few minutes until thoroughly hot. For oven preparation, transfer the contents to an oven-safe dish and bake at the specified temperature until heated through. Stirring halfway through the microwave cooking time can help ensure even heating. Allow the meal to stand for a minute or two before consuming.
