I'm getting interested in cooking after my surgery (3 weeks ago). I recently bought a mini loaf pan and mini muffin pan to be able to make smaller quantities. I use a lot of recipes off of Eggface's blog, and these work great!

Has anyone else bought cookware that will help them make smaller meals?

I am interested in buying Rachel Ray's cookware:

and this brownie pan from Pampered Chef: http://www.pamperedchef.com/ordering/prod_details.tpc?prodId=38310&catId=122&parentCatId=122&outletSubCat=

Not cookware (yet) but I did pick up some new glass food storage containers for taking small portions to work. I saw a tiny cast iron skillet that I may get eventually. I imagine using it for a tiny frittata or cute little omelettes.

I didn't have the surgery yet but thinking about this as well. I like to cook myself and hope that I would be able to do so couple days after surgery even though I cannot eat it yet but I will cook for kids and husband. so my new addition to my kitchen was new food steamer. so I can cook there without using oil a lot. and even when I can eat puree and mashes I can do fish there and just use blender to blend it.

I have http://www.amazon.co...d=ATVPDKIKX0DER they are good. I bought they originally to do Creme brulee. and I like your option on Rachel ray. I probably end up with some of them as well.

I also got some cute little containers and a bento box to take small portions of food in to work... I pack the food up the night before and grab them in the mornings...

I went to Marukai looking for little bento boxes and found egg molds. You put a still-warm hard-boiled egg in the mold and pop it into cold Water. Once it settles you pop out the egg and BAM, it's shaped like a fish!

You can find all sorts of shapes on Amazon:

Just checked them out. So cute. Never knew such a thing existed!

So far I end up buying Measuring bowls it help me to control the portion with my full liquid so far. because I never fill full.
