What can I use in place of a lid to a pot?

I started making dinner and I realized I lost my lid to my cooking pot when I moved.

What can I use in it's place? I need cook something with the lid on.

    I lost the lid to my big pot years ago, and I use a round cookie sheet. I suppose a square or rectangle one would work as long as it covers the pot. Do use oven mitts or something whatever you use. It will be hot and have no handle.

    Find a frying pan in your cupboard about the same size as the pot invert it and you have a lid

    make one out of tin foil or use a plate but a plate can explode if not microwave or dishwasher safe

    a plate or another pot may work or a cutting board.
