HOW LONG DO MY MEALS LAST?

Meals stay fresh for 3-7 days, depending on the ingredients of your dish. Every dish is marked with a best before date, to help you better pick which meals to eat first.. If you would like to keep your meals for longer you can freeze them, however, when it comes to food we believe fresh is best and encourage you to avoid freezing your meals where possible.

HOW DO I HEAT MY MEALS?

To ensure your meals are as delicious as they can be, we recommend heating in an oven.

OVEN HEATING:
Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C for fan-forced). Remove the lid, puncture the top plastic and remove any sauce containers. Heat for 15 mins. Not that heating time can vary depending on oven used.

Short on time? You can also heat your meals in a microwave.

MICROWAVE HEATING:

Before heating remove lid and slightly open seal. Remove any sauces from container. Place in microwave without the lid and heat on HIGH for 2-5 minutes (heating time may vary depending on make and model of microwave).

HOW DO I PAY?

Payments are taken online at oliversrealfood.com.au for the initial payment and any subsequent orders if ordered as part of a recurring order.
