I’ve started making savory protein muffins for my breakfasts. I take them out of the foil and microwave them for like 2 minutes and I eat them while driving to work. However I didn’t think about the foil being a problem. I want to find something I can wrap the muffins in that can just throw in the microwave. Cause now I feel like I’m wasting the foil AND the paper towel I end up microwaving them on. The least amount of waste possible but still keeping my system the same.

Thank you!

    You could wrap them in waxed paper and use freezer tape to keep it closed.

    Wrap in parchment paper, then put ’em in an airtight container to freeze?

    Freeze them on a pan first, then place them in a large ziplock bag. You don’t have to wrap individually, then.

    I wrap them on unbleached parchment you can buy them in packs of precut squares and then I rubber band that. I wrap burritos the same way.

    can you reuse the foil? and just get a small plate to microwave them on?

  6. I’ve always wrapped my fritatas in foil and reheat in my air fryer. Thaw overnight, don’t preheat the air fryer, set at 325 and toss in for 15 minutes.
    Keeps in moisture and holds heat so when I get to work, they’re still warm. Imo, if you’re planning on reheating any of those, the foil is your best bet. And it’s actually fully recyclable, unlike most other forms of storage. Plus, no microplastics!

    Parchment paper with tape or Saran Wrap

    Freezer paper and painters tape or masking tape.

    We used to freeze in foil and zip locks but this has completely replaced that. If it’s meat that might leak while it’s thawing, we put it in on a dish in the fridge to thaw.

    I use parchment paper and then a foil wrap outside of that while in the freezer. But I reuse the foil. No need to throw it out every time, it’s reusable.

    Ok wait. I want to know more about the muffins.

    Also: parchment paper or wax paper. There are parchment paper brands that are compostable which is doubly good.

    Avoid the plastic wrap! Try beeswax wrap or reuse a plastic sandwich bag
