Store them in the fridge and freezer, and use in the microwave and conventional oven (without the plastic lids). The vented lids have a large lip, so they're easy to remove, and they snap onto the bottom of their respective containers for optimum storage. The design is available in individual bowls and casserole dishes, from $4 to $8 each; a 10-piece set costs $25 at most Target stores. < Cold brew Sure, we were skeptical. But Lipton's Cold Brew Blend, tea bags that brew iced tea in cold water in five minutes, works as promised. The tea tastes fine, if a bit bitter to some tasters (it contains no fat, sugar or calories). When you make it, follow the instructions (not the picture on the box, as we did): Pour cool water over the bags, let the tea brew, and then add the ice. A package of 48 tea bags (you need two for each 12-ounce glass) costs around $3 at supermarkets. A box of 24 larger bags for pitchers also is available for $3.
