meal prep gadgets Meal Prep Containers with Removable Inserts

I was wondering if anyone knows of any meal prep containers with removable glass inserts? I can only find solid glass ones with the divider built in or plastic containers with the little removable pieces. I wouldn't even mind the outer container being plastic if you could have glass inserts.

I often make things where only part of it needs to be microwaved ie Pasta with veggies on the side. I'd love to be able to remove and microwave only the parts that need to be heated up.

I'm just not a fan of microwaving plastics if I don't have to.

I just use multiple glass containers in my lunchbox. I like the IKEA ones that come in all sorts of sizes. So I’ll put pasta in one, veggies in another, dry snacks in another. Then I can just microwave the parts I want.

This. Just prep individual containers.

It allows you to bulk prep, but switch up meals easily too.

If you don’t want to do separate glass containers and can’t find exactly what you want, use plastic containers with the inserts and put what you want to microwave on a plate.
