The dried penne cooks in approximately 9 minutes on the stovetop or in the microwave, which makes it realistic to step away from your desk, boil water, stir, and still have time to eat before your next call.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I keep a few cups in my desk drawer or office kitchen without taking up fridge space?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbsolutely.
