Marketing - Food & Drink / food products
German term or phrase: ausrezeptiert
This is from a market study about food products by companies such as "Maggi", "Betty Crocker" etc.

"Die Marke ist bestens etabliert im Bereich der Helferprodukte und im Feld der ausrezeptierten Produkte und zeigt großes Potential zur Integration neuer Produktfelder.

Any ideas about "ausrezeptiert"?
I suppose it means finished products which only have to be heated up, where nothing has to be added, but I would like to describe it with one or two words, as elegant as possible (if that is possible).

Thank you so much in advance for your help!

agree  Claudia Tomaschek: It's not really ready meals but refers to all kinds of mixes, e.g. soup mix, souce mix (Maggi) or cake and cookie mixes (Betty Crocker). All ingrediences are already mixed but you've got to cook / bake them.
