Chef's Heating suggestions
SHORT RIB MAC & CHEESE HEATING INSTRUCTIONS
· START WITH COLD FOOD, COLD OVEN
· Then, Set your oven to 325°F (163°C).
· Add extra liquid: Pour 1/8 cup of whole milk or broth evenly over the top.
· Cover tightly: Wrap the baking dish securely with aluminum foil to trap the steam and keep the short ribs tender.
· Bake covered: Place the dish in the oven for approx. 30 minutes.
· Check internal temperature: If using a food thermometer, the center should reach 150°F (65°C).
· Uncover and crisp: Remove the foil for the last 10 minutes of baking to brown the cheese topping.
Rest before serving: Let the dish sit on the counter for 10 minutes after baking so the sauce thickens up.
Enjoy with a side salad, Lemon vinaigrette. Bon Appétit!
PERSIAN MELON GAZPACHO

MEXICAN CHICKEN TORTILLA (Dairy Free)
Smokey & hearty, yet not spicy. Guajillo, Ancho & Chipotle chilies turn roasted chicken & heirloom blue, red & white corns into a Mexican Fiesta.
Chef's Suggestions
- I love to top my tortilla soup with all or any of the following: Tortilla chips, avocado, cilantro, grated cheese, sliced radish, jalapeños...
- For entertaining: Put each of the toppings in separate attractive bowls and have everyone help themselves to their favorite toppings. Kinda like a salad bar.
