When my family celebrates Thanksgiving, it’s a lot like Lululemon – we make too much. And in the over abundance of turkey, sides, wine, and dessert, there’s a mad scramble of random containers and bags to clean up and store in the kitchen. That is until one year, Uncle Fran (hi, Uncle Fran!) brought a box of plastic containers and the entire game changed. Now, we’re a well-oiled machine of packing and distributing food. Everyone in attendance (even the pets) get leftovers for the week and whoever is hosting that year has a neatly stacked fridge. Nothing is wasted and nothing goes bad. Now, who wouldn’t be thankful for that?
So, in preparation for the big Turkey Day, I’ve rounded up some products that will handle anything and everything that’s leftover. We’re talking bread baskets for leftover rolls, cheese vaults for leftover brie, glass containers, plastic containers, freezer bags, and more. Some of these items are chic and stylish, and some are just plain practical (and safe for the microwave, dishwasher and freezer). And whether you have a big kitchen or a small one, you’ll find what you can’t live without.
Read on for the best way to wrap, store, and distribute your Thanksgiving leftovers. Gobble, gobble!
