To prepare this meal, simply remove the outer packaging. You can heat it in a microwave or an oven. If microwaving, follow the instructions on the package for optimal heating times, ensuring the sauce is bubbling and the pasta is tender. For oven preparation, transfer the contents to an oven-safe dish and heat until thoroughly warmed through. It is best to stir the contents halfway through heating to ensure even cooking and distribution of the sauce and meatballs.
