Today’s Menu: Cajun Rainbow Trout w/ Baked Macaroni and Cheese

 

To start this Sunday Morning off I made Biscuits and Gravy with Turkey Sausage. I prepared a packet of Pioneer Peppered White Gravy, Pillsbury Grands Jr. Biscuits, Johnsonville Turkey Breakfast Sausage Links, and a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. A Delicious Sunday Morning Breakfast! A high of 44 degrees and cloudy outside today. Did a load of laundry and then cleaned the house, dusted and ran the vacuum. For Dinner tonight Cajun Rainbow Trout w/ Baked Macaroni and Cheese.

 

I had the Rainbow Trout Fillet, that I had purchased from Meijer, in the freezer. So I laid a package of 1 fillet in the fridge overnight to thaw. To prepare it all I’ll need is; Rainbow Trout Fillet, 1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 1 Teaspoon Zatarain’s Creole Seasoning, and 1 Teaspoon chopped Parsley Flakes. To prepare it I preheated the broiler. Patted the fillets dry and lightly brush both sides with oil. Sprinkled both sides evenly with Cajun seasoning. Placed skin side down on broiler rack and broil 4-6 inches from heat for 5 minutes or until the Trout flakes easily when I tested it with a fork. You can add a Lemon Wedge with it if you like. Excellent recipe, you have the fresh taste of the Trout along with all the flavor from the Creole Seasoning!

 

For the Mac and Cheese I used Reser’s Main Street Bistro Signature Macaroni and Cheese. We have used several of their sides now and having the Mac and Cheese tonight.

 

 

I’ll be baking it, you can also microwave it. I prefer baking items in the oven. First preheat the oven to 350°F. Next I removed the tray from the package and removed the film. I placed the container on baking tray and heated it in the oven for 22 minutes. Nice and bubbly around the edges. Let it cool a bit and it’s ready! The Mac and Cheese is delicious! Fantastic Elbow Macaroni with plenty of Cheese, seasoned just right! I also had a slice of the baked a loaf of La Baguette Roasted Garlic Oval Bread I baked the day before. For a Dessert/Snack later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Snyder’s Pretzels with a Diet Dr. Pepper to drink.
