To prepare, remove the outer packaging. If the film is still on, vent it by piercing it a few times with a fork. Heat the meal in a microwave according to the package directions, usually for several minutes, until it is thoroughly heated through. Alternatively, it can be heated in an oven for a more evenly cooked result, though this takes longer. Ensure the sauce is bubbling and the pasta is tender before serving.
