Ever since my friend bought me a set of Anyday bowls for my birthday two years ago, I’ve cooked so much more in the microwave than on the stove that my gas supplier has called to see if my meter is broken. (I had to tell them I was actually not cooking on the stove at all and the meter was accurately reading nothing.) I’ve written about the Anyday Bowls before, but it’s worth reminding you that despite the metal in their lids, these things are 100 percent microwave-safe.
Their design allows you to basically steam or bake things, and now that I’ve owned them for two years, I have found even more reasons to like them. Between these bowls, which I steam eggs and vegetables in, and my air fryer, the number of times I use my gas stove has plummeted to nearly nothing. I also really appreciate how well the Anyday Bowls stack and seal, making them great leftover containers. They make great gifts for people who are lazy to cook from scratch, or want to steam their cuisine but don’t want to get a dedicated device. — Cherlynn Low, Deputy Editor
