Abstract
The present invention is directed to a microwavable steamer food pack that includes a container and an insert. The container has a lower portion, an upper portion and a top edge. The insert has a plurality of opening and a pull tab and is positioned between the lower and upper portion of the container. A gelled sauce is in the lower portion of the container and food components are positioned on the insert and extend into the upper portion of the container. A covering is secured to the container. The gelled sauce remains in a solid or semi-solid state and is separate from the food components when the food pack is stored in a vertical position under chilled conditions.
