I just pulled out a batch of 9 burger/sandwich buns from the oven. I will be using one of them for tonight's dinner.

Last night I made Mexican style, a combination plate. A taco, enchiladas, tostada, rice and beans. For the filling I sauteed some bell and jalapeno pepper, onion, tomato and pork tenderloin. The sauce was mole from a jar. All in all, not bad.

Yesterday I made pork tenderloin on the BBQ. Had it with broccoli, baked beans and couscous. For tonight's dinner I had some leftover rotisserie chicken and brussels sprouts and carrots and a little pasta.

BA, I'm glad that's behind you now. Wishing your husband a full and speedy recovery.

Joan, congratulations to your granddaughter, have a great time!

Last night I made a pork loin roast, mashed potatoes and broccoli.

I don't know which is healthier but I know which one tastes better. But it depends on application, you wouldn't want a chocolate omelet, would you?

Navlys, when I make Noel Nut Balls, which are essentially the same as Mexican Wedding Cookies, I roll the dough out into a rectangle. Then I take a chefs knife (I think a pizza cutter would work nicely) and cut squares and then I roll out each one in my hands to form a little orb. I found I prefer this method over scooping the dough as it is a little stiff.

I made a bbq style pizza. I had some leftover bbq pork tenderloin which I used as a topping. For the sauce I diluted some tomato paste with water to get the right consistency and then added a little bbq sauce. Also had some diced bell pepper. For the cheese I had an open package of Mac & Cheese blend (it's sharp cheddar, American and Swiss) and some mozzarella in the freezer. So, I used up some odds and ends. I over sauced it but it still came out pretty good and I had enough left for Sunday's breakfast.

It's not the most attractive pizza I've ever made but I wanted to try out posting the pic in actual size.

I made a batch of sandwich/burger buns except I only made 6 and made a pizza with the remaining dough.

That pie looks great, Joan, I'm sure it's delicious!

I made pork tenderloin on the bbq grill, 3 ingredient macaroni and cheese, and brussels sprouts.

Going to try a larger photo size 🙂

It's not a huge file size but larger than I've normally posted.

I made pasta with meat sauce and fresh green beans.

On an iPhone, you can use the edit button and then the crop button to crop out any unnecessary background. That will make the file size smaller (but probably not small enough). When I use the iPhone I email the pic to myself (use the little box with the arrow pointing up), I select myself as the person I'm sending it to, then a box will come up giving me the option to select a different size, for example the original image is 1.9 mg, options will be small 26 KB, medium 78 KB etc. I usually select medium.

Joan and BA, both your dinners sound like heaven!

I'm making a burger with mashed taters and brussels sprouts and carrot.

[RiversideLen]

I had pasta and chicken meatballs (the last from the freezer, time to start thinking about making more) and kale.

This morning I made breakfast sliders, egg with cheddar, turkey breakfast sausage, strawberry jam on toasted dinner rolls.

They're a little darker in the pic than they actually were.
