Our take on the Rubbermaid TakeAlongs 11.7 Cup Food Storage Containers, Set of 2, Red

These are two large square food storage containers, each holding 11.7 cups (2.77 liters), with lids that click and twist onto the base for a tight seal. The ridged lids stack in the fridge or cabinet, and the bases are dishwasher safe, freezer safe and microwave safe for reheating only. They suit batch cooking, leftovers and big-batch meal prep where you need volume rather than a divided lunch box. Against glass containers they are lighter and less breakable, but they are not oven safe and the lids are not meant for microwave use.
