Inexpensive and safer way to store and reheat food



My Italian friend's mother used this economical trick when storing leftovers. Place food in a glass bowl and cover with a salad plate. See example to right. You can now stack other food on top of the sturdy "lid" and the salad plate can be left on to reheat.

Kindly note: If you don't drink water that's been sitting in the hot sun in a plastic container because it "tastes like plastic" why reheat food in plastic, microwavable containers. All those chemicals leeching in to your food can't be good for you. Why take the risk when there are plenty of safer options!
