I bought my pans at King Arthur but I'm willing to bet that Amazon has them, they do carry USA pans.

I looked on Amazon, they have them for about $30

BakerAunt, I'm actually real good at shaping burger buns (not hot dog buns) but I still use the mini cake pans to bake them in because the sides of the buns brown up nicer than just baking on a sheet pan. May not be a big deal for most people but I appreciate the difference.

I made tostadas again as I have enough filling for several servings.

For the tostada shells, I lightly brushed corn tortillas with oil and baked them for 10 minutes on each side, at 350f. For the filling, I browned a pound of ground beef, added a chopped fresh tomato and a can of corn, drained. Then added some Mole sauce, that was the only seasoning. I spread refried beans on the shells, added some meat mixture and topped them with a cheese blend of cheddar, American and Swiss. Baked on convection mode at 350f until the cheese was melted and toasty.

I had it with a side of asparagus.

I made a white cake from a Betty Crocker box mix. The instructions say to use either 3 egg whites or 3 whole eggs, just seems to me that would make a difference in the texture and volume. So I split the difference and used one whole egg and 2 egg whites. I made it in my USA mini cake pans (first time I actually used it for cake, I usually use them to make my sandwich buns in). They are essentially the equivalent of 2 standard size cupcakes. I got 11 cakes out of it. They baked up nice and taste good. Haven't decided if I'm going to frost them.

I made tostados tonight.

I had a large salad and leftover pasta sauce with bow tie pasta.

That sounds delicious, Joan!

I sauteed a zucchini, a little red bell pepper, a jalapeno and ground beef, then added a jar of pasta sauce and simmered it until the veggies were done. Had it over pasta. Also a salad.

I sauteed some zucchini, red bell pepper, jalapeno, shredded carrot and Italian sausage, then added some chopped fresh tomato and let it simmer for a few minutes, served it over pasta. It was pretty good.

I made stir fry veggies which included kale, asparagus, shredded carrot, red bell pepper, jalapeno and zucchini, seasoned with grated ginger, sesame seed oil and soy sauce, served over rice and a leftover pork chop.

I had a pork chop with noodles and kale.

I had the last of my sloppy Joe tonight with asparagus.

Those loaves look great, Aaron! I want the dark one!

I made a batch of sloppy Joe on Sunday. This consisted of lean ground beef, onion, sweet red bell pepper, a couple of jalapenos, fresh tomato and tomato paste to thicken it. A boatload of veggies.

So, on Sunday and today, I had a sloppy Joe and a large salad. Yesterday I was invited to my neighbors for dinner, she made spaghetti and meat sauce and a salad. She made the meat sauce with canned tomato and stew meat that she simmered in the slow cooker for about 6 hours. It was really good.

Joan, I am very sorry about your sister. It is never easy losing a loved one. Keep her in your heart and she will always be with you.

I kept it simple, a cheeseburger and a large salad.
