Showing up to a holiday party empty-handed is a big etiquette don't, but arriving with a cold dish and requesting to use the host's oven to reheat it is another hindrance. Luckily, we found a solution that takes the stress of transporting food out of the equation. The Luncia Casserole Carrier has a near-perfect rating from Amazon shoppers who say it keeps food hot or cold for at least eight hours. The insulated carrier fits dishes up to 11 inches by 15 inches, and it has a food-grade aluminum lining designed to maintain your dish's hot or cold temperature. The exterior fabric is dirt-proof and water-resistant to stand up to outdoor elements, and it even has an exterior pocket to hold utensils, napkins, and condiment packets.

If you plan on bringing a few casserole pans to a function, there's even a double decker option that holds multiple dishes at once. amazon.com To buy: $18 with coupon (was $20); amazon.com Over 1,500 Amazon shoppers gave the carrier a perfect rating because it's easy to carry, fits a lot of food, and keeps food warm after several hours out of the oven. Many reviewers said they swear by it during the holidays when traveling between events. "So on Christmas Eve, we packed some hot dessert into [the carrier] and covered it in foil to take to my son's house," one shopper wrote. "We had another stop first and stayed about an hour and a half. Then we had an hour drive to get there. We opened presents, then ate, and by the time we were ready for dessert it was about 4.5 hours later. I was sure it would be cold, but it was still warm! This thing is fantastic." Another reviewer said, "This is one of those products you don't realize you need until you have it. I ordered this because we were having lunch with a family member whose oven is broken. I heated a lasagna and a large container of green beans, wrapped them in towels, zipped everything up and off we went. Two and a half hours later, the items were still warm."
