Pyrex Portables
How many times have you been invited to a pot-luck dinner and found yourself faced with the challenge of transporting hot dishes? It's awkward! Do you place it on a cutting board and risk it sliding around in the seat beside you? Wrap it up in a towel? Oh, and don't forget to bring your oven mitts... not that they will help much... you're bound to get burned or spilled on before you get there anyway.
Well, no more!
I really love this thing. Pyrex Portables is a handy little set that includes a glass 9/13" casserole dish with a plastic snap-on lid, an insulated carrying case, and a reuseable, microwavable heating pad. The inside of the case also has a little strap "seat belt" to secure the dish, so it doesn't slide or move at all.
I am particularily impressed by how well insulated this is. I have placed the heating pad in the bottom of the case, then placed the dish--directly out of the oven--on top of it, and then sat the whole thing on my lap for the entire car ride. It was warm, but not hot, and definitely not burning. And dinner was still hot and ready to serve when I arrived.
It's also very simple to clean. You can just wash the dish and lid as you would normally, and if spills happen inside the case, you can just wipe it up with a damp cloth.
This set makes a really neat shower gift, or, if you can't resist, a nice gift for yourself! =)

You can't really go wrong with something like this.
I have one of these and love it. I agree it really holds the heat in the foods
Now this sounds like something that I could really use! I often take meals to my momand need to keep them warm!
Wow! That is really an interesting concept! I am going to have to look up the price of something like this.
I just googled it and found them directly on the Pyrex website. They don't have the blue one that I have pictured, but there's on there w/ a black case on sale for $16.99.
$16.99 is a fabulous price for one of these really wonderful Pyrex products. What a great way to bring along hot dishes without losing a drop of food or having to serve it cold.
These are awesome and make great gifts even! I love mine :D
These are so nice! They are very handy when I attend potlucks or family reunions.
These are wonderful to have. I love these things.
I didn't realize these came with a carrying case-fantastic!
This seems like a really good product. Is the plastic cover hard to keep clean?
Not at all. It's like a snap-on lid. It's heavy plastic. I believe it can go in the dishwasher, but I don't have one, so I haven't tried it. :) It always washes up by hand without any trouble though.
I love these portables and own 3 of them. Really came in handy at Christmas!!
I actually just bought myself this set, and can't wait to try it out!
have one of these, they're great and do hold the heat, thanks for sharing
