Tips for freezing food?

I would freeze the stuff in a microwavable container. It will not be at all defroasted from morning to lunchtime. I pull stuff out the night before and stick in the fridge and it’s still frozen at lunchtime.



The Pyrex is microwaveable. The problem is that the little insert that came with it says to avoid extreme changes in temperature. I am sure that means that freezer to microwave is a bad idea. I am not sure about the refrigerator to the microwave. Is a 1.5 cup container really still frozen after being in the fridge all night?

I do see the appeal of the plastic containers that go straight from the freezer to the microwave. But I don’t have any of those containers anymore, so I am stuck with the Pyrex unless I want to start a row with H. I just wish I weren’t facing all these learning cures at once–cooking, freezing, reheating . . . I guess I’ll just look at all of this as a big experiment.
