To Serve or Not To Serve

I was so proud of myself for getting a jump on my Shabbat cooking last night. I made 2 challahs and a Rice/Noodle dish. And then I was really tired so I went to bed.

Sadly, the little elves who were supposed to put away my food left the rice and noodles out of the fridge.

So, here is the question. It came out of the oven about 10:30pm and went into the fridge (when Kayla woke me up) at about 5:30am. It was no longer hot.

Before I throw it out, I figured I would check with my loyal readers (and those who know more about Food Safety than I) and see what you think. Is there any salvaging this dish?

The ingredients are rice,noodles, chicken soup mix, onion soup mix, margarine, and boiling water.

Let me know what you think - and I prefer to err on the safe side!

Completely fine to serve it!
Sometimes it happens to me too! I'm sure to everyone. You have nothing in there that would have spoiled...also you have to factor in that it probably only lost temperature by 3am...so it was only left out really for 2 hours.

YOU GOOD GIRL EAT IT!
Missing you lots...
Shabbat Shallom :)
