Directions for the Holidays

Microwave with the lid on for 3-4 minutes on high
For Salads:
Place the salad in a mixing bowl, drizzle dressing on top and toss, season with a little salt and fresh pepper if desired
For Surf and Turf:
Filet and the skewers are seated to rare – I recommend broiling or grilling the filet and skewer (filet will take about 5-8 minutes under the broiler or on the grill to be medium, always cook it a little less and let it rest before serving. Skewer will only take 3-4 minutes to be fully cooked. If you got the crab cake, bake it in the oven at 400 degrees for 10-15 minutes until hot.
