I made a couple of pans of the classic PHILADELPHIA Marble Brownies, one for the house here and another I took over to my Dad in the rehab center. Which he shared with the nurses and everyone was happy! I reduced the fat, calories and carbs by using a Betty Crocker Low Fat Brownie Mix, 1/3 Less Fat Philly Cream Cheese, Splenda Sugar, and Egg Beater‘s. You couldn’t tell the difference, they came out moist and tasty!
PHILADELPHIA Marble Brownies
A generations-old recipe that never loses its appeal mostly because, as one fan says, “It’s the BEST way to have both a brownie & a cheesecake simultaneously.”
What You Need
1 pkg. (18.3 to 19.5 oz.) brownie mix (family size)
1 pkg. (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp. vanilla
Make It
HEAT oven to 350ºF.
PREPARE brownie batter as directed on package; spread into greased 13×9-inch pan.
BEAT cream cheese with mixer until creamy. Add sugar, egg and vanilla; mix well. Drop by tablespoonfuls over brownie batter; swirl with knife.
BAKE 35 to 40 min. or until cream cheese mixture is lightly browned. Cool completely before cutting to serve. Keep refrigerated.

Today’s Menu: Breaded Pork Chops w/ Sour Cream Potatoes,Green Beans, and Whole Grain Bread
A beautiful, sunny, perfect day out today! The sun has been out since dawn and it’s about 40 degrees. So nice I took my Hoveround out and went around the block, felt great getting out. For dinner tonight I came across a couple of new recipes; Breaded Pork Chops and Sour Cream Potatoes. So for dinner tonight I prepared Breaded Pork Chops w/ Sour Cream Potatoes,Green Beans, and Whole Grain Bread.
The Breaded Pork Chops and Sour Cream Potatoes came from a current issue of Taste of Home/ Simple and Delicious. I love the Taste of Home various magazines. Their always full of great ideas and recipes. To make the Breaded Chops I’ll need 1/4 cup Egg Beater‘s, 1/4 cup 2% milk, 1/2 cup crushed low fat saltines crackers, 2 boneless pork loin chops (1-inch thick and 4 ounces each), and 1 tablespoon canola oil. Then to prepare them is quite easy; in a shallow bowl, combine Egg Beater’s and milk. Place cracker crumbs in another shallow bowl. Dip each pork chop in egg mixture, then coat with cracker crumbs, patting to make a thick coating. In a large skillet, cook chops in oil for 4-5 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 145°. Let meat stand for 5 minutes before serving. The Chops came out moist and delicious and the saltines made a great crust for the Chops. I’ve left the original recipe, which makes 6 Chops, and the link to the Taste of Home website at the end of the post.

Then for the Sour Cream Potatoes I’ll need 10 medium red potatoes, peeled and quartered, 1 package (4 ounces) low fat cream cheese (cubed), 1/2 cup (8 ounces) reduced fat sour cream, 1/4 cup 2% milk, 2 tablespoons butter, Blue Bonnet Light Stick Butter (divided), 1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes, 1-1/4 teaspoons garlic salt, and 1/4 teaspoon paprika.Then to prepare it In a shallow bowl, combine egg and milk. To cut back on calories and carbs I only used half the amount of sour cream and cream cheese that the original recipe calls for, and it came out fine. Place cracker crumbs in another shallow bowl. Dip each pork chop in egg mixture, then coat with cracker crumbs, patting to make a thick coating. In a large skillet, cook chops in oil for 4-5 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 145°. Let meat stand for 5 minutes before serving. Another winning recipe from Taste of Home! The Mashed potatoes came out rich and creamy with just a hint of heat. I’ve left this recipe also at the end of the post.
I also heated up a single serving can of Del Monte Cut Green Beans and had Aunt Millie’s Light Whiole Grain Bread. For dessert later a Healthy Choice Chocolate Swirl Frozen Yogurt.

Today’s Menu: Fried Panko Coated Sandwich w/ Baked Crinkle Fries
A Panko Crusted Cod Sandwich! Sound good, it is good! I purchased a nice size Cod fillet while at Kroger yesterday. It was big enough to cut in half to make a couple of sandwiches, one for dinner and one for lunch tomorrow. I rinsed the fillet off and rolled it in Flour that I had seasoned with Garlic Powder, Lemon Pepper, and Onion Powder. I then dipped it into Egg Beater’s, shaking off the excess. Then rolling the fillet in a Panko Bread Crumbs that I seasoned with Sea Salt and Paprika. I rolled the fillets until they were covered on both sides. I then lightly fried them about 4 minutes per side in Extra Virgin Olive Oil. They came out golden brown and delicious! I served it on a Healthy Life Whole Grain Bun along with a slice of Bordon’s Smoked Cheddar Cheese and also just a touch of Lemon Juice on the filet. The full recipe is at the end of the post, recipe makes 4 sandwiches.
Along with the sandwich I had a side of baked Alexia Crinkle Fries with a couple of splashes of Hunt’s Ketchup and a Diet Dr. Pepper. For dessert later a slice of fresh baked Pillsbury Nut Quick Bread topped with a scoop of Breyer’s Carb Smart Vanilla Ice Cream.
Ingredients
(4) 4oz. Orange Roughy, Cod, or Tilapia Fillets
1c. Panko Italian Style Bread Crumbs
Sea Salt and Ground Black Pepper to taste

Mix bread crumbs, sea salt, and paprika in a separate bowl. Meanwhile, heat Olive Oil in skillet. Dip floured fillets into Egg Beaters , allowing excess to drip off. Place fillets, one at a time, in Panko Bread Crumbs, and lightly toss until both sides are covered. Place in oil and saute 4 minutes each side, or until fillet flakes easily with a fork.

the regular Egg Beaters but with a hint of Cheese. Makes a good Scrambled Egg or Omlett. For breakfast I had a Scrambled Egg Beater topped with a Bob Evan’s Turkey Sausage that I had cut in half and served on a Healthy Life Whole Grain English Muffin. You can’t have too many options for breakfast!

Fried Catfish Nuggets w/ Hash Browns and Velveeta Shells and Cheese

Today’s Menu: Fried Catfish Nuggets w/ Hash Browns and Velveeta Shells and Cheese
I had Catfish Nuggets a couple of weeks ago and they turned out so good I’m having them for dinner tonight. I used 2 bowls to prepare the nuggets filling one with EggBeater’s seasoned with Paprika and in the other Italian Style Bread Crumbs. I seasoned the Catfish with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Black Peppercorn and then dipped each one in the Egg Beater’s, making sure each was well coated. Shaking off the excess Egg Beater I then rolled them in the Progresso Italian Style Bread Crumbs. I fried them in Extra Virgin Olive Oil on medium heat about 4 – 5 minutes, turning once. They came up golden brown and delicious! Catfish fries up so good. Baking Fish is a lot healthier but Catfish is a Fish that tastes better fried.
For sides I had Simply Potatoes Hash Browns and I also prepared an individual serving of Velveeta 2% Shells and Cheese. Easy to prepare, microwave 3 1/2 minutes, and just as good as fixing it from a box. For dessert later a bowl of Blue Bunny Frozen Chocolate/Vanilla Swirl Ice Cream.

Breakfast: Cheese Omlett, Turkey Sausage Links, Steakhouse Seasoned Diced Potatoes, and Whole Grain Toast.

It had been quite some time since I had made a Big Breakfast. i usually like to keep the calories and carbs low to start the day but this morning I was really hungrey and a Big Breakfast sounded great to start this day off!

For the Sausage I used Bob Evan’s Turkey Sausage Links, 70 calories and 0 carbs for 2 links. The Diced Potatoes were Simply Potatoes Steakhose Seasoned Diced Potatoes, 80 calories and 19 carbs ( I only had a half serving of the potatoes ). Finally the toast I used Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread, 70 calories and 16 carbs for 2 slices. To drink I had a cup of Bigelow DeCaf Green Tea, fresh brewed. Along with the Saturday Morning Paper I was set! All in all not alot of calories and carbs but it was just a little more than I usuall have for Breakfast.

Fried Panko Crusted Cod w/ Diced Rutabagas, Green Beans, and…

Today’s Menu: Fried Panko Crusted Cod w/ Diced Rutabagas, Green Beans, and Whole Grain Bread

It had been a while since I had any Cod so while at Kroger the other day came across some nice looking fillets and I purchased 2 of them. I rinsed the fillets off and rolled them in Flour then dipping them into Egg Beater’s, shaking off the excess. Then rolling them in a Panko Bread Crumbs, Onion Powder, Lemon Pepper, Garlic Powder, and Paprika mix until covered on both sides of the fillets. I then lightly fried them about 4 minutes per side in Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Golden brown and delicious! There’s going to be some tasty leftovers for lunch tomorrow!
For sides another first time one for me, Rutabagas. I had never tried them and found a can of Margaret Holmes Diced Rutabagas. The taste of the Rutabaga is similar to a Potato and the color of a Sweet Potato. I boiled them and seasoned them with Sea Salt, Black Pepper, and added I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter which I added after it was done. I left the link and description at the end of the post for the Rutabagas. I’ve been purchasing a lot of Margaret Holmes products at our local Walmart lately. I really enjoy all the products I’ve tried. Fresh and easy to fix and wide variety! I also had a side of Green Beans and Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread. For dessert/snack later a new item I’m trying Dean’s Heat ‘n Eat Chunky Bean Dip along with Tostito’s Whole Grain Scoops.
Margaret Holmes Diced Rutabagas
Originally cultivated in Sweden where it grew wild, the Rutabaga was brought to the US in 1817. This flavorful root can be prepared in a variety of ways and is often an addition to greens and soups or by itself. Margaret Holmes Rutabagas are locally grown and cooked to perfection. Just heat-n-serve!
