Plates

[jennyjoan]

I am hoping next week I should be able to visit quite a very sick lady in her home (lives quite a bit of a way from me) and I would like to cook up some home-made dishes. She is living off those vile frozen dinners from supermarket.

I would like to know what kind of plates (plastic) and covers I could get. Any ideas would be welcome. Thanks

i would use something like this, not plates. I don't think the supermarket ones are vile...depends on the supermarket I guess Amazon.co.uk User Recommendation

Probably depends on the sort of meal...meat and veg with lots of gravy or something like cottage pie....and also think how they're going to be re-heated (microwave or conventional oven or gamma-rays!)

[jennyjoan]

microwave probably

at home, if i'm doing batch cooking i uually use plastictubs or takeaway containers. Both can be frozen, but i put stuff to be heated up in the oven in the takeaway tubs Amazon.co.uk User Recommendation , and plastic for things that are going to be defrosted before cooking or put in the microwave
