Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F

Customize It Instructions

  • Meatlovers! If using protein, cook in a medium non-stick pan over medium heat with 1 tsp. olive oil. 

  • If using antibiotic free chicken, pat dry. Cook until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes per side.

  • If using filets mignon, pat dry. Cook until steak reaches desired doneness, or 4-6 minutes per side for medium/medium-well. Rest, 3 minutes. Steak thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

  • If using salmon, pat dry. Add salmon, skin-side up first, and cook until salmon reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes per side. 

  • Add protein to meal as desired.

  1. 1

    Toast the Garlic Bread

    Place garlic bread on prepared baking sheet.

    Toast in hot oven until golden-brown, 12-15 minutes.

    Carefully remove from oven.

    While garlic bread toasts, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Cook the Vegetables

    Halve tomatoes. If you receive one whole tomato instead, not to worry; simply core tomato, cut into 1/2" dice, and proceed with recipe instructions.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.

    Add minced garlic and parsley, peas, and tomatoes to hot pan. Stir occasionally until tomatoes are tender, 2-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the Sauce

    Add marinara, cream cheese, 1/2 cup water, and a pinch of salt and pepper to hot pan. Stir occasionally until combined and cream cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Tortellini and Finish Dish

    Add tortellini to hot pan.

    Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook until tortellini are tender, 3-5 minutes.

    If sauce is too thick, add water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

    Remove from burner.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, garnishing tortellini with shredded cheese. Slice garlic bread, if desired. Bon appétit!
