Abstract

A container lid for substantially covering a container opening while receiving a utensil handle therethrough. A recess is formed in the lid to closely receive the utensil handle and a recess cover assembly extends over the recess to reduce the possibility of foreign matter entering the container. A hinge means and a handle means are disposed on the lid for pivotally mounting the lid with respect to the container. A generally tapering flange or rim extends from a lower surface of the lid for close receiving relation with the container opening.
