Today’s Menu: Chicken Fried Steak w/ White Peppered Gravy, Mashed Potatoes, Sugar Snap Peas, and Biscuits
I wanted a tasty down home meal for dinner and this is what I prepared, Chicken Fried Steak w/ White Peppered Gravy, Mashed Potatoes, Sugar Snap Peas, and Biscuits. I used a Kroger’s Private Selection Cubed Veal Steak. To prepare it I used the 3 bowl method. I first seasoned it with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Black Peppercorn. I then rolled it in flour (1), shaking off the excess, and then rolled the Veal in Egg Beater’s with added Paprika (2) and finally rolling it in a Italian Style Bread Crumb and Parmesan Cheese mix (3). I then pan fried it in Extra Virgin Olive Oil, turning once making sure both sides were a golden brown. Golden brown is what it was and with the combination of all the seasonings and coatings it turned out delicious! Veal at times can be a bit tough but this was fork tender. I topped it with White Gravy. I used Pioneer Brand White Peppered Gravy. I love this Gravy! It’s easily prepared and is a thick and well seasoned Gravy.

For side dishes I had Bob Evan’s Mashed Potatoes topped with the White Peppered Gravy. Bob Evan’s Mashed Potatoes are as good home made Mashed Potatoes and a lot easier and quicker to make. I also warmed up the Sugar Snap Peas that were leftover from the other night along with a small can of Pillsbury Grand JR’s Biscuits.The leftover Veal, Gravy and Biscuits will make a great Breakfast in the morning! For dessert a slice of the Pillsbury Nut Quick Bread with a scoop of Breyer’s Carb Smart Ice Cream.

Today’s Menu: Panko Crusted Veal Cutlet w/ Green Beans and Mashed Potatoes
While at Jungle Jim’s Market earlier I came across some of the biggest Veal Cutlets I had ever seen, and of course I had to purchase a couple of packages of it! I froze 1 package and prepared the other for dinner. I got the big three out to bread these beautiful Veal Cutlets; Flour, Egg Beaters, and Panko Bread Crumbs. I seasoned the flour with about 3 shakes of Paprika and seasoned the cutlets with Sea Salt and Ground Black Pepper. These were very thick cutlets so I had to fry them a little bit longer than you would normally fry Veal. I fried them in Canola Oil about 5 minutes per side. And as you can tell by the picture it turned out incredible! The coatings gave it a fantastic golden brown coating and the cutlet was tender and moist, you could cut by using a fork!

For sides I warmed up some leftover Green Beans that my Mom had made the night before, from Green Beans she had purchased from a local Farmer’s Vegetable Stand. Along with the Beans I made an individual cup of Idahoans Mashed Potatoes. Just add water and microwave for a 1 and 1/2. easy to fix and a great substitute for homemade mashed potatoes. For dessert later a Jello Sugarless Dark Cherry Jello, 910 calories!

Breaded and ready to Fry!

Veal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Veal is the meat of young cattle (calves), as opposed to meat from older cattle. Though veal can be produced from a calf of either sex and any breed, most veal comes from male calves (bull calves) of dairy cattle breeds.

Today’s Menu: Veal Cubed Steak & Brown Mushroom Gravy w/ Green Beans, Mashed Potatoes, Cinnamon Apples, and Whole Grain Bread

After slacking yesterday I was ready to hit the kitchen and make a full healthy dinner! I prepared a beautiful lean Cubed Veal Steak. I seasoned them with Morton’s Salt Substitute and Ground Black Pepper and then rolled them in italian Style Bread Crumbs. I then fried them in Canola Oil about 4 minutes per side. They came out a beautiful crusted brown and very tender. I need to get Veal more often tender, great tasting and only 120 calories and 0 carbs per Cubed Steak. I topped it with a Heinz Mushroom Gravy that I added extra Mushrooms to and also used the Gravy for my Mashed Potatoes also.

For sides I had Idahoan Mashed Potatoes that as I said before were topped with Brown Mushroom Gravy. I also had Green Beans and a half serving of Cinnamon Apples. The meal was very low in calories and carbs that’s why I was able to add on the Cinnamon Apples, which really made the meal giving everything that added flavor boost! For dessert/snack later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Jolly Time Pop Corn.

Can’t get enough of the Kroger Brand Cubed Veal Steak. I think it’s one of the best tasting and most tender Veal cuts I’ve ever had. I always pick one up when at Kroger.

Today’s Menu: Veal and Brown Mushroom Gravy w/ Mashed Potatoes and Fresh Asparagus

I’m going to have start having this Veal more often, it’s fantastic! I’ve been buying the Private Selection Cubed Veal Steak from Kroger. It’s the most tender and delicious Veal I’ve ever come across. I seasoned it with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Black Peppercorn and then lightly coated it with Italian Style Bread Crumbs. I pan fried the Cube Steak in Extra Virgin Olive Oil about 3 minutes per side and it came out perfect!

To top the Veal I made some Mushroom Brown Gravy. Thanks to the inspiration from another blogger, Please Pass The Tofu who always has a very good blog that’s full of ideas and recipes! For the Gravy I used Pioneer Brown Gravy. I sliced some Portabella Mushrooms and lightly sauteed them in Extra Virgin Olive Oil and seasoned them with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Black Peppercorn. After making the Gravy I added the sauteed Mushrooms along with 2 tablespoons of Breakstone Reduced fat Sour Cream and mixed well. I used the Gravy to top the Veal and also my side of Mashed Potatoes. Homemade Mashed Potatoes are great but Bob Evans Mashed Potatoes are just as good and whole lot easier! Microwave them for 3 minutes remove them from the microwave give them a good stir and microwave them again for another 3 minutes and you have your Mashed Potatoes. As my other side I had fresh Asparagus that I cut into 3 pieces and seasoned with Garlic Salt and Black Pepper and then lightly fried in Extra Virgin Olive Oil and I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter. No clue on a dessert tonight.
