Storing Your Meals
Enjoy the Betr meals stored in your refrigerator up to the date stamped. This can be up to 10 days in the refrigerator unopened. The extended shelf life is due to the food being packaged in a modified atmosphere system. Containers are made with BPA free material and are fully recyclable. It is best to store any extra in the freezer to ensure food safety. The ice-packs are filled with a nontoxic saline solution. They are safe to flush down a drain. For disposal, we advise to cut the tips, pour the solution down the drain and recycle the packs.
Best Practices For Heating Meals
The chef recommends best practice is to spoon or fork out your desired portions onto a plate and microwave one minute per serving size. Each tray is considered four serving sizes and therefore a whole tray would be four minutes in the microwave. If using the oven he suggests 10 minutes per tray on 350 but to check frequently for the desired temperature, covered is best with tinfoil. Rules Of Thumb Per Tray From Refrigerator
