Today’s Menu: Grilled BBQ Chicken Breasts w/ Roasted Butternut Squash and Green Beans
For Breakfast this morning I was starving so I made favorite of mine, Hash Browns and Diced Ham. I made some Simply Potatoes Shredded Hash Browns, heated up some Meijer Diced Ham, and 
had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. I made a bed of the Hash Browns in a bowl and sprinkled some Sargento Reduced Fat Sharp Cheddar Cheese. Next I put the Diced Ham over top the Hash Browns. Also had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. After Breakfast I went to McDonald’s to pick up Breakfast for Mom. Rain and thunderstorms out today, high of 82 degrees. Not a lot going on today with the rain outside. Did a few things around the house. For Dinner tonight its Grilled BBQ Chicken Breasts w/ Roasted Butternut Squash and Green Beans.
I picked the Chicken up at Meijer, Katie’s Best Skinless and Boneless Chicken Breasts, and had the package in the freezer. Sat the package in the fridge overnight to thaw. I had the Dinner Trio a 
while back and it was so good having it again tonight. For the BBQ Sauce I’m using Kraft Hickory Smoke BBQ Sauce. I’m seasoning the Chicken with Morton’s Lite Salt and Ground Black Pepper. I went out and fired the grill up first. Next I sprayed the Chicken with Pam Non Stick Cooking Spray on both sides of the Chicken Breast, then seasoned them with the Salt and Pepper and waited for the Grill to heat.
With the Grill ready I started. Added the Chicken and shut the lid on the grill. I let the chicken cook for 7 minutes, then used the tongs to flip the breasts over. Grilled for another 7 minutes longer.
With about 1 minute of cooking time left I basted the Chicken with the Kraft Hickory Smoke BBQ Sauce and finished cooking. Checked temperature of the Chicken with a thermometer reads it read just a tad over 165°. The Chicken came out fantastic! Moist and flavorful. Love that Kraft Sauce, and it was excellent! The Katie’s Best Skinless and Boneless Chicken Breasts has become our favorite Chicken Breasts.
Then for one side I prepared some Roasted Butternut Squash, easy recipe for some delicious Butternut Squash! I purchased 1 small package of Diced Butternut Squash at Kroger. They sell 
packages of it that they dice up. This is a lot easier than peeling and seeding one yourself, especially if you don’t have a good knife to cut it. I’ll need; 1 package of Diced Butternut Squash, Walnut Pieces, 1 tablespoons Extra Light Olive Oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons McCormick Grinder Sea Salt, and 1 teaspoon McCormick Grinder Peppercorn Medley.
To prepare it; Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the Squash on a sheet pan and drizzle with the Olive Oil, add the Walnut Pieces, Salt, and Peppercorn and toss well. Arrange the squash in 
one layer and roast for 25 to 30 minutes, until the Squash is tender, turning once with a spatula. And done, very easy to prepare. With the small amount of Seasoning and Olive Oil, it really brings out the flavor of Butternut Squash! The Walnuts work perfect with the Squash. I really love Butternut Squash!
As the Squash was roasting I had also opened up a Mason Jar of our Canned Green Beans, canned last summer, and had them cooking. Love these Beans, they taste just as fresh as the day we 
bought them. Just heat them up in a large sauce pan and serve. Fresh Green Beans any time you want. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn and a Diet Peach Snapple to drink.

Seasoned Grouper w/ Baked Tater Tots and Jonny Cakes

Today’s Menu: Seasoned Grouper w/ Baked Tater Tots and Johnny Cakes
To start the day off I Poached an Egg and served it on a toasted slice of Aunt Millie’s Light Whole Grain Bread. Then I also heated up a couple of Johnsonville Turkey Breakfast Sausage Links along 
with my morning cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Same weather outside! Passing thunder storms, humid, and 80 degrees. We’ve had so much rain in this are, like a lot of country. There’s flooding throughout our area. Friday is supposed to be sunny and clear, hope they are right! For Dinner tonight its Seasoned Grouper w/ Baked Tater Tots and Johnny Cakes.
I purchased the Grouper while at Jungle Jim’s International Market. They had them on sale and I just couldn’t resist from buying 3 fillets. I have a couple of the Gulf Coast Groupers in the freezer 
but I can’t walk away from a sale!
I rinsed the Grouper in cold water and dried it on a paper towel. I then sliced the Grouper into smaller pieces. To prepare the fillet I seasoned it with just a bit of Sea Salt and put the fillet in a Hefty
Zip Plastic Bag where I then added the Zatarain’s Seafood Breading Mix Seasoning. Shook until the fillet was well coated. Shook off the excess off. Then got the Cast Iron Skillet out, sprayed it with a light coat of Pam Cooking Spray and added a tablespoon of Extra Light Olive Oil. Heated the skillet on medium heat. When the skillet was ready I added the Grouper Fillets, frying about 3 1/2 minutes per side until golden brown. Grouper is so meaty and flavorful.
As my Grouper was cooking I preheated the oven on 425° to bake some Ore Ida Tater Tots. Just bake at 425 degrees for about 15 minutes and done! The Tater Tots come out golden brown and 
delicious! I served them with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup.
I also made a batch of Johnny Cakes. Sort of last minute add on, Mom wanted some. To prepare the Johnny Cakes (I love these…) all you’ll need is: Pam w/ Olive Oil Non – Stick Spray, 1/4 cup Extra Light Virgin Olive Oil, 1 3/4 cups Low Fat Buttermilk, and 2 cups Martha White Self Rising Enriched White Corn Meal Mix. Just mix all your ingredients in a large bowl. Spray your Pam on a Flat Top Griddle or large Skillet and preheat on medium low, I use the Flat Top Griddle. When the Griddle is heated add your batter. You can make the Cakes any size you want from half-dollar size to regular pancake size cakes. After the bottom side turns golden brown flip over and let the other side get golden brown. The Cornbread works perfect with Chili! I had a Diet Peach Snapple to go with my Dinner. I took some of the Johnny Cakes and 3 Bean Turkey Chili over to Dad at the rehab center, which he loved. For Dessert/Snack tonight a bowl of Skinny – Pop Pop Corn with a Diet Peach Snapple to drink.
Grouper – Firm texture, white meat with large flake and a mild flavor. Extra lean fish.

Today’s Menu: Fried Chicken Thighs w/ Fried Potatoes and Canned Green Beans
For Breakfast this morning I had a toasted Thomas Light 100% Multi Grain English Muffin that I topped with Smucker’s Sugarless Blackberry Jam. I also fried up a couple of Johnsonville Turkey Breakfast Sausage Links and made a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. I went to McDonald’s after I ate and picked up Breakfast for Mom. Rain, thunderstorms, and 78 degrees out today. So much rain! So again not much going on outside! Did a couple of loads of laundry and cleaned the house. For Dinner tonight I prepared Fried Chicken Thighs w/ Fried Potatoes and Canned Green Beans.
I had a package of the Simple Truth Boneless and Skinless Chicken Thighs from Kroger in the freezer. I sat the package in the fridge overnight to thaw. Then to prepare them I’ll just need Flour, Morton’s Lite Salt, Ground Pepper, and Extra Light Olive Oil. I think the trio of Fried Chicken Thighs, Fried Potatoes, and Canned Green Beans has become one our favorite Dinners!
I got a large Cast Iron Skillet, sprayed it with a light coat of Pam Non Stick Spray, added 1 1/2 tablespoons of Extra Light Olive Oil, and heated it on medium heat. As the skillet was heating I got a pie pan out and put 2 tablespoons of Flour in it. Next I got the Chicken Thighs out of the package and seasoned them with Salt and Pepper and rolled them in the Flour. With the skillet heated I added the Thighs to the skillet and put a lid on the skillet. Fried the Thighs for about 9 minutes and then flipped them over, put the lid back on the skillet to cook another 7 minutes. As the Chicken Thighs were cooking I got out a second Cast Iron Skillet, sprayed it, added the Olive Oil and let it preheat on medium heat. Then I washed and cut the Potatoes for the Fried Potatoes.
I grabbed a plate and put paper towel on it and removed the Chicken Thighs from the skillet to the lined plate. Paper towel absorbs any of the excess oil. Just love the crust on the Chicken provided by the Flour Coating! The Flour and cooking it in a Cast Iron Skillet. So moist and delicious!
For one side we had Fried Potatoes! I’ve loved these all my life and my Mom makes the best! I bought a bag of Medium Size Red Potatoes, which we’ll be using. To prepare them; first wash the Whole Potatoes and dry with a paper towel. Next grab a Cast Iron Skillet and add 1 tablespoon of Extra Light Olive Oil and heat the Skillet on medium high.
As the Potatoes were cooking I had also opened up a Mason Jar of our Canned Green Beans, canned last summer, and had them cooking. Love these Beans, they taste just as fresh as the day we bought them. Just heat them up in a large sauce pan and serve. Fresh Green Beans any time you want, I love it! Quite a Dinner tonight! For Dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Pudding.

For Dinner tonight its Grilled BBQ Chicken Breasts w/ Roasted Butternut Squash and Green Beans.
I picked the Chicken up at Meijer the other day, Katie’s Best Skinless and Boneless Chicken Breasts. For the BBQ Sauce I’m using Kraft Hickory Smoke BBQ Sauce. I’m seasoning it with Morton’s Lite
Salt and Ground Black Pepper. I went out and fired the grill up first. Next I sprayed the Chicken with Pam Non Stick Cooking Spray on both sides of the Chicken Breast, then seasoned them with the Salt and Pepper and waited for the Grill to heat.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mom’s out there! Just a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea for Breakfast. I went to McDonald’s afterward and picked up Breakfast for Mom. Light rain on and off with high of 57 degrees. Not a thing going on this Mothers Day Sunday. I gave Mom a Card, some Flowers, a Hanging Basket of Flowers for outside, and a couple of Gift Cards for Mother’s Day. For Dinner tonight I prepared Fried Chicken Thighs w/ Fried Potatoes and Canned Green Beans.
Mom usually fries the Chicken Thighs but tonight I’m preparing everything being Mother’s Day. I had a package of the Simple Truth Boneless and Skinless Chicken Thighs from Kroger in the freezer.

1/4 cup lime juice
1 teaspoon lime zest (optional)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Cooking Directions:
1 – Prepare the grill. Chicken may be cooked on an oiled grilling pan. (The pan should be very hot before placing the chicken on it.)
2 – Brush both sides of each thigh with some honey mustard and set them aside.
3 – In a medium bowl, stir together the ingredients for the salsa and set it aside.
4 – Grill or sauté the chicken until just firm. Serve the chicken immediately with some of the salsa spooned alongside.
Makes 4 servings.
