MCIRCO Glass Meal Prep Containers, 5-Pack (36 oz)

Description

These M MCIRCO glass meal prep containers are a five-pack of 36 oz two-compartment dishes, so a main and a side stay apart until lunch. Glass suits people who reheat food at work and want to avoid plastic staining.

Putting the M MCIRCO set to work

Batch-cook five lunches on Sunday, freeze portions of curry and rice, pack leftovers, or bake directly in the base and store without moving food.

Glass is heavy, so five full containers make a weighty bag if you commute on foot. The divider also makes portion control easier: protein in one side and vegetables in the other gives a quick visual check without weighing food. Stacking the containers in the fridge keeps a week of meals organised at a glance.

Breaking down the M MCIRCO set

Each container holds 36 oz (about 4.5 cups) across two sections, with a lid in grey. The brand says the glass bases are safe for the microwave, oven, freezer and dishwasher; lids are typically not oven-safe and should come off before heating.

Before you buy: heavy

Avoid sudden temperature changes from freezer to hot oven, which can crack glass. Check how secure the lids are if you carry sauces.

Other options beyond the M MCIRCO set

Lightweight BPA-free plastic sets cost less and weigh far less, while single-compartment glass suits soups.
