I have these and love them. Of course, they can't go in the microwave. But, I still love them (and I don't worry about leaching from them).

Most days in life don't stand out, But life's about those days that will...
These are all great ideas! Keep them coming!
I specifically didn't mention any preferences regarding material because I want to see how many different ideas y'all have, and I've not been disappointed
I don't really have an issue with putting stuff in/on other dishes to nuke it. It might be a little harder to sell DH on the idea....
I use the cheapest Ziplock/Glad containers around. I used to have some Tupperware, but those parties make me ill.
I am about to throw out what I have, because it is getting tired. We just discussed buying some decent food storage containers, but I'll let DH do this. I am lazy about this stuff. And I nuke everything... so, yea, I'll probably be dead from it. I got tired of the science teacher lecturing me about this in my old job.

Corningware makes lids for some of their lightweight bowls. You'd have to use a different lid for nuking - those flat silicone lids are great.
Eta: I have to say it - dying isn't what I worry about. I've seen too many people suffer horribly from breast cancer, whether or not that's what they eventually die of. Please everyone be careful.

Speed comes from what you put behind you. - Judi Ketteler
A couple years ago we ditched all the hodgepodge and got those rubbermaid ones with the base that snaps to the bottom for storage. We had about 4 sizes that we used and we had bunches of each.
Recently we just ditched all of them--ok, converted them to storage for parts and non edible stuff and got glass snap top ones from Costco.
Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.
We don't like plastic so we have lots of pyrex of all different sizes. The lids are plastic but we don't microwave those. The lids don't do well in the dishwasher or the freezer, so we ordered a bunch of extra lids from the pyrex website.
