Today’s Menu: Fried Walleye Fillet w/ Fresh Green Beans and AppleWood Smoked Bacon Potato Casserole

 

 

To start the morning off I had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. No appetite this morning. After my Tea and morning workout I went to McDonald’s to pick up Breakfast for Mom. I headed back out and went to Menard’s. I’m looking for a battery operated weed trimmer. Stopped off at the Post Office and mailed a few letters for Mom. Partly sunny and humid out today, high of 84 degrees. For Dinner tonight I prepared a Fried Walleye Fillet w/ Fresh Green Beans and AppleWood Smoked Bacon Potato Casserole.

 

 

 

While at Meijer a while back I bought a few fillets of Walleye. I had used a couple of them and had the last one in the freezer. So I grabbed that bag and sit in the fridge overnight to thaw. To prepare it I first rinsed the fillet in cold water and patted it dry with paper towel. Then I seasoned it with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Black Pepper Medley. Put the fillet in a Hefty Plastic Bag and added some Progresso Italian Style Bread Crumbs, sealed the bag and shook till the fillet was well coated. I then fried it in Extra Light Olive Oil on medium heat, about 4 minutes per side till golden brown! I love Walleye, as I do most Fish. Walleye is so meaty and has such a fresh flavor!

 

 

For a side I cooked up the last bag of the fresh Green Beans for Dinner last night. Boiled them with a piece of Fatback Pork in the kettle. Reheating the leftovers tonight. Love these fresh Green Beans!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then I also prepared a box of Idahoan Applewood Smoked Bacon Homestyle Casserole. Like the other Idahoan dishes their a breeze to prepare and a delicious Potato Dish. And like the others this turned out fantastic! Very well seasoned, and you can taste that Applewood bacon flavor. I love my Potatoes! I also had a slice of Aunt Millie’s Light Whole Grain Bread that I lightly Buttered with I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn with a Coke Zero to drink.
