Microwave Divided Dishes & Plate Covers

We've received quite a few emails from people looking for divided trays so that they can freeze meals and reheat them in their microwave. While Microwave Cooking for One is written so that you can cook complete meals to eat immediately, there are those who have reason to cook large quantities for consumption later. For example, preparing and freezing meals for an elderly relative. Plate covers help keep your microwave oven clean by minimizing splatters. Here are the divided dishes and plate covers we've been able to find available on the Internet:

The Corelle 10¼-Inch Divided Plate goes from refrigerator or freezer, to microwave or oven, to table, to dishwasher! Like all Corelle dinnerware, this plate is lightweight. It also stacks and stores easily. Break and chip resistant. (The complete line of Corelle Winter Frost White is featured in our Corelle section.)

3-Compartment Microwave Safe Food Container — For those who cook in big batches and then freeze meals for later consumption, this 50-Piece set of rectangular containers with clear lids will come in handy. With two 6-ounce compartments and one 12-ounce compartment, it is easy to create a three-course meal that can be microwaved when needed. Dishwasher safe for easy cleaning.

2-Compartment Microwave Safe Food Container — For those who cook in big batches and then freeze meals for later consumption, this 10-Piece set of rectangular containers with clear lids will come in handy. With a 30-ounce capacity, they are also ideal for storing leftovers. Top-rack dishwasher for easy cleaning.

Nordic Ware Party Tray — A perfect substitute for paper or plastic disposable plates, these party trays can be used time and again. Break-resistant, they are ideal for kids, too. Whether at home or on the go, you can feel good about reaching for these BPA and Melamine free trays. This set of 4 party trays come in bright colors. Made in the USA.

BIA White Divided TV Tray — Enjoy a stylish twist on the TV dinner with this TV tray from BIA Cordon Bleu. The all-white porcelain resists cracking, chipping, and staining. Microwave, oven and dishwasher safe. Measures 12¼"W x 1¼"H x 8"D.

Nordic Ware's Microwave Plate Cover concentrates heat around food and keeps it moist with this transparent, high-domed plastic cover. Protects against splattering and covers dinner plates up to 11 inches in diameter. Eliminates the need for paper towels or waxed paper. Cook or warm two plates of food at once in the microwave: cover one and stack the second on top of the cover. The cover is virtually unbreakable and is safe in the freezer and dishwasher.

I am thrilled! There are many more recipes then I expected. I am very excited since my husband often works late and I end up with sandwiches rather then making myself something to eat.. —Barbara Andersen, New York
