Le Creuset’s 2-in-1 Baking Dish and Platter Is on Major Sale and It’s Perfect for Holiday Entertaining or Gifting

With the holiday season in full swing, planning out a dinner party or figuring out what you’re going to bring to a potluck can be daunting tasks. However, we’ve got plenty of great recipes for you to check out that can make narrowing down your dishes a breeze. Once you know what you’re cooking or baking, all that’s left to worry about is how you’ll be presenting it. For that, look no further than a trusty serving platter. Serving trays and display platters are must-have pieces in your holiday hosting toolkit, but for many people, the holiday season is the only time they break them out all year. That’s why it’s such a great idea to invest in a serving dish or platter that you’ll use multiple times a year — at least. That’s where this Rectangular Dish with Platter Lid from editor-favorite heritage brand Le Creuset comes in. Its innovative two-in-one design lets you bake and serve with just one piece of cookware. Plus, it won’t spend all year gathering dust in the back of a cabinet, and it’s on sale right now! 

Le Creuset designed the Rectangular Dish with Platter Lid specifically to look amazing and function even better. It’s perfect for bringing from the oven straight to the table, and you can even use the two dishes separately. The platter lid makes a perfect lid for the baking dish, serving tray, cheeseboard, and display piece. The baking dish is great for everything from baking cakes and roasting vegetables to cooking casseroles, braising beef, and much more. Plus, the tight-fitting lid makes it a snap to keep leftovers. The Rhone colorway is also perfect for the holiday season, though there are plenty of shades to choose from to match any and all kitchen aesthetics.

“This pan bakes up a wonderful casserole with a very easy cleanup. The cover is great as a serving tray for vegetables, or baked goods, or whatever else you might like. Or use it as a cover to keep your food warm till serving.” — LadyDiva

“I bought this dish with the platter lid because I own several Le Creuset pieces myself, and I thought this would be a wonderful bridal shower gift. I chose it because it’s really two pieces in one, both a covered rectangular dish and a separate serving platter.” — Frenchywife

“I didn’t discover Le Creuset bakers until later in life and after I did, I thought about all those wasted years. How did I live without them? I immediately bought my daughter a set and more recently bought some for a good friend and both are throwing out all metal and glass baking dishes. They bake evenly, are practically non-stick and are a cinch to clean. There may be other good products out there for baking but I haven’t tried them as I am happy with all the Le Creuset baking pans I have. And I have a lot.” — BettyM

So, if you’re looking for the perfect gift for the host in your life, or you’re hoping to upgrade your holiday serving and baking gear with a piece that you’ll (actually) use more than just a few times per year, you can’t go wrong with the Rectangular Dish with Platter Lid from Le Creuset — especially while it’s still on sale!
