Rebecca Blackburn's Profile

I haven't used cling wrap or foil for more than ten years. It's not hard to do - you will soon find alternatives.

In the fridge I use glass jars, or bowls with a plate on top. The handiest container is Pyrex because it can be used the oven, microwave, fridge and freezer. You can get it with plastic lids (not suitable for ovens!) which are stackable or if you want to avoid plastic some have pyrex lids. Cheap pyrex can be found in op shops.

I also use biscuit and cake tins and domed food protectors (stainless steel mesh or bamboo). For lunches I wrap bread in a thin cotton bag and place in a lunchbox. If you want to avoid plastic stainless steel boxes are now available.

If I want to cover anything in the oven I use a dish which has a lid.
