Plastic is not cheap in the long term, and I’m pretty sure the aluminum industry wants to keep people gobbling up foil in their kitchens. Thing is, glass would cut into their profit margin. I wish people would ask glassware companies to bring back the glass lids with their bakeware instead of plastic lids. I have (old) lidded glass Pyrex for things like this. My local farmer sold his red beets before I got my order in, so it will be orange beets with little oranges perhaps with cilantro as it’s the only fresh herb I have and I might try some sweet marjoram I grew this year as I’ll be de-twigging it today.ĥ stars reduced to 4 stars for your use of foil! With the cookware suppliers you have I’m surprised you are wasting foil. I have some awesome organic mandarin type oranges. I rarely mix fruits with veggies in same meal – except for a couple recipes my mother made.
