Please note that all ovens are different. These are the
recommended cooking instructions but please make sure that all food is piping hot before serving.
We’d recommend getting all your dishes out of the fridge and
reading through the cooking instructions, so you know when everything needs to go in the oven. Otherwise, sit back, relax and let us do the hard work. Bon Appétit!
