Saving Money on Plastic Wrap

RE: Saving Money on Plastic Wrap By Jan from Bangor ME (Guest Post) I see the bags inside cereal boxes are popular! I save them and use them when pounding chicken for chicken cutlets or chicken Picata. The bags are really sturdy and never tear.

To reheat in microwave, just put smaller amounts in bowls with a small plate over, for larger, use larger bowl and dinner plate. I often put a second plate under the bowl for safer removal; don't want to drop when hot.

It's reusable and you don't have plastic touching your food.

I prefer to pack leftovers in a pyrex or corning dish with lid and then it's ready to be re-heated. I had the package of plastic bowl covers in different sizes but it just seemed hard to keep up with them and so many of them were tiny sized and I found I needed more of the bigger ones. I didn't really like having to spend time washing them either. I just think putting leftovers in a microwave safe dish that has a glass lid is easier and only one item to wash, it can keep being resused so nothing to put in the trash either. My plastic wrap usually lasts a long time. Posted on 09/06/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Saving Money on Plastic Wrap By MCW (1009) Profile Blog! Contact I buy the food service sized rolls at Sysco and it lasts me for many years. It saves me money because I don't have to buy a roll every few weeks.

It contains two each of several sizes. Great for those plates and bowls that are too small to use shower caps on. Posted on 09/05/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse
