I Just Love These Things!

I just love the Pyrex Littles. They are the cutest dishes I've seen.

Those are pretty! Pyrex always made some pretty cool stuff. I have the set of little bowls from one year that have yellow snap-on tops and birdies on them.

It's a shame the company changed from Borosilicate glass, though. I'm glad I have some old stuff. The old Corning Ware pyroceram was very nice, too. I have a lot of that in the French White and Black. The newer stuff is Chinese-made stoneware and not nearly as nice.

The littles are great if you use a toaster oven very much.

I am adding more of the Corelle winter frost white to my everyday dishes. Now have the large and small meal bowls and the 12.25" platters that we use as plates. We are using all three sizes almost daily. My dishes are blue willow by Johnson Brothers and I still use them, but the Corelle is so much lighter and takes up less cabinet space.

@KatieB Are these just clear glass with no lids or covers?

@bcherry01 Yes, clear glass with no lids or covers. Like a 9 x 13 baking dish only smaller.

That is why I like the Pyrex Snapware. It has lids.

I stopped using plastic containers. I like how well the Pyrex cleans. Don't have to worry about plastic staining.

I have two of the squares. It's the perfect size for when we want to make 90 sec. mug bread in the shape of a slice of bread so DH and I can make a sandwich sometimes. I follow the recipe, allow the bread too cool, then slice it in half, making two thin slices for a top and bottom. Works for us. 👍

The recipe is called 90 second mug bread. It's a keto recipe.

1 lg. egg

2 teaspoons butter, melted

1/2 teaspoon gluten free, aluminum free baking powder

1/4 cup almond flour

mix it altogether in an average size mug and nuke for 90:seconds.

@KatieB

I'm so glad you posted! I had a smaller Staub stoneware baking dish that I used often in my Oster french door oven that recently exploded. I was thinking of going back to glass, I'll check out these littles, thanks!

@drizzellla I don't think they were created for food storage to begin with, although I do store leftovers in them sometimes.

@rockygems123 They are much cheaper than Staub. I got mine at Target and now I see they're on sale at the Pyrex website. Pyrexhome dot com. 3 piece set for $9.00

I still use my mom's 8" x 8" dish. I'm sure it is an original piece when it made its debut!

I really like them too! Never saw the small ones before---I cook for 2 now and don't need the mambo jamma sizes anymore--
