Last night I made a cassarole in my oval baker then realized when I was putting it in the oven I had no tin foil...crap. I grabbed the lid for my DCB and it fit almost perfect ! a little loose but I worked great and kept my cassarole moist.
thought it would be a good cross sell fir those customers who already have the oval.as long as we explain it won't be a "perfect tight fit"
 
That's a great tip! I never would have thought to use the lid from my DCB for a casserole. Thanks for sharing. I agree, it could definitely be a good cross sell for those who already have the oval baker. And like you said, as long as we explain that it won't be a perfect tight fit, I think customers would be happy to have that option. Thanks for the suggestion!
