baking pans at every cooking session. As a general rule, entrées
requiring a 9" x 13" pan are used for meals that serve

Thyme offers two options to accommodate smaller families and

to feed 4-6 people), simply use two of the required baking
pans for each entrée so that you are able to divide
each entrée into two.
OR
- Meals in Minutes offers sessions every month dedicated
to preparing the same tasty Meals in Minutes entrée for smaller
families and individuals (each entrée is designed
to feed 2-3 people).

What is the recommended procedure
for thawing my entrées? |
| |
|
|
Meals in Minutes recommends thawing
your entrées in your refrigerator for 24-36 hours,
or until completely thawed. Other suggested methods of thawing
include: submerged under cold running water in your sink (probably
best with entrées in Ziploc® bags), or in the microwave
if the food will be cooked immediately after thawing. Never
thaw your entrées at room temperature. This can cause
bacteria to grow and can be very dangerous to your health.
