Today’s Menu: Fried Chicken Thighs w/ Fried Potatoes and Canned Green Beans

To start this Thursday morning off I had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. We have a hot one out there today, but no way am I complaining! Sunny and not a cloud in the sky but low humidity. I had to get the Sunscreen on before going out the door. After my Tea I went and picked up Breakfast for Mom. Back home I helped another elderly neighbor up the street paint his shed. We’ll get his Shutters tomorrow. Nice to be out in this beautiful weather! So for Dinner tonight it’s Fried Chicken Thighs w/ Fried Potatoes and Canned Green Beans.

We haven’t had my favorite trio of food in a while, so it was time! For the Chicken I used Katie’s Best Boneless and Skinless Chicken Thighs. We just can’t seem to have Fried Chicken Thighs without Fried Potatoes and Green Beans! I had the Chicken Thighs in the freezer and grabbed a package last night and let it thaw in the fridge overnight. 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 were meant to be together, one of our favorite meals!

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 for 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.

For one side we had Fried Potatoes, which I picked up at Meijer the other day. I love these and 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 them 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.

With the skillet heated, add the Potatoes. After adding the Potatoes add your Seasoning, we just used Salt and Pepper. Then fry until the Potatoes start to turn brown. Then flip them with a spatula and continue frying until done. I love these Potatoes and they are so easy to prepare.

I had opened up a quart jar of Canned Green Beans and had them already cooking. I love these Green Beans. They always taste so fresh! Just heat them up in a large sauce pan and serve. One delicious Dinner as always when having the Chicken Thighs! For Dessert/Snack later I had a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Snyder’s Pretzels with a Diet Lemonade/Tea Snapple to drink.

Today’s Menu: Baked Crispy Chicken Strips w/ Mashed Potatoes and Cut Green Beans

To start the morning off I had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 74 degrees with heavy rain and strong winds. Some areas had a tornado touch down. Did a load of laundry after Lunch. And that was about it for my day. For Dinner tonight I prepared Baked Crispy Chicken Strips w/ Mashed Potatoes, Cut Green Beans, and Dinner Rolls.

Chicken Strips sounded good for Dinner, I used Meijer Crispy Chicken Strips. They come frozen. To prepare them I preheat the oven to 400° degrees. I then grabbed a baking sheet that I lined with foil and sprayed it with Pam Non Stick Cooking Spray. I lined the Strips on the sheet and slid the Pan into the oven. I baked them for 18-20 minutes or until heated through: Turn halfway through heating. The Strips came out excellent. Nice Breading and the Chicken was moist and tender. I served these with some Hidden Valley Ranch Buffalo Dressing.

For a side I prepared a package of Bob Evan’s Mashed Potatoes. Just microwave for 6 total minutes and serve, just as good as homemade, if not better. I could make a meal out of just Mashed Potatoes.

Then I also heated up a can of Del Monte Cut Green Beans. Just empty the can into a sauce pan and heat until heated through. I just love Green Beans, all Beans! I also had some Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Dinner Rolls.

Meijer Crispy Chicken Strips
This fully cooked meal makes for a great ready-to-cook entrée that tastes as good as it is easy to make! Serve Meijer Crispy Chicken Strips with your favorite sauce or marinade to bring out their incredibly savory flavor.

Today’s Menu: Buttermilk Marinated Chicken Thighs and Noodles

For Breakfast I made a Breakfast Sandwich using a toasted Thomas Light English Muffin and frying a al fresco Chicken Sausage Patty, I actually made 2 of these – 1 for Mom. The al fresco Chicken Breakfast Patties are an excellent Patty! Still a touch of Winter out there today. A high of 51 degrees, cloudy and windy out today. The wind made it feel like it was in the 30’s. After Breakfast I made a Delivery Order from Kroger, it got here about Noon. Just did some cleaning around the house and moved some of our plants outside to the shed for overnight. The say a possible frost! Will it ever change to Spring! For Dinner tonight I prepared Buttermilk Marinated Chicken Thighs and Noodles along with Dinner Rolls.

For the Chicken; I started at Noon today. I grabbed a large Hefty Bag and added a 1/2 Pint of Buttermilk to the bag. I then added several shakes of Frank’s Hot Sauce to it and shook the bag to blend it together. I then added my Chicken Breasts and let it Marinate in the fridge until it was time to use. I used my favorite, Katie’s Best Chicken Thighs.

To prepare the Chicken Thighs I grabbed a Cast Iron Skillet. Sprayed with a coat of Pam Non Stick Cooking Spray. Then I started heating the skillet on medium heat. Next I added a tablespoon and a half of Olive Oil Cooking Oil. As the skillet heated I got the Chicken out of the fridge and removed it from the bag of Marinade, shaking off the excess. Then I grabbed a pie pan and added Flour to it and seasoned the Flour with Paprika. Took the Chicken Thighs and rolled them in the Seasoned Flour until well covered.

Added the Chicken to the heated Skillet. I cooked the Chicken for 4 minutes and then flipped them over and cooked them for 4 more minutes, until golden brown and the meat thermometer read 165 degrees. The Chicken turned out so very good! Cooked up perfect, nice crust, and love the seasoning! Served it with Kraft Hickory Smoked BBQ Sauce for dipping.

For the Noodles I used No Yolks Extra Broad Noodles. I’ve been eating the No Yolks for as long as I can remember. They are always so good! To prepare them: Bring 4 quarts of water to a rapid boil. Add salt to add flavor and reduce stickiness. Gradually stir in 6 oz of No Yolks noodles; return to rapid boil. Cook uncovered for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally.

To prepare the Meal I made a bed of Noodles and topped them with a shake of Salt, Dried Parsley, and I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter. Then I topped them with the Chicken Thighs. This is my type of Dinner! The No Yolks were good as always and the Chicken Thighs were excellent. Chicken is so good when Marinated in the Buttermilk and Frank’s Red Hot Sauce! We also had some Aunt Millie’s Living Carb Smart Dinner Rolls, some of the freshest Rolls you can buy. Plus they are only 35 calories and 2 carbs per roll! For Dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Pudding.

No Yolks Extra Broad Noodles
At 1/2″ wide, our Extra Broad Noodles are great for casseroles and entrées, and make a great alternative in dishes that ordinarily would call for pappardelle or fettuccine.

Today’s Menu: Fried Chicken Thighs w/ Fried Potatoes and Canned Green Beans

To start this Thursday morning off I had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. So for Dinner tonight it’s Fried Chicken Thighs w/ Fried Potatoes and Canned Green Beans. 53 degrees and mostly sunny out today. I took Mom to her Radiation Treatment, 3 more to go! On the way back home Mom dropped me off and I picked my car up. It’s running great again! Before heading home I stopped and had the car washed and then I vacuumed the inside. Back home I cleaned the windows. It looks pretty good for an old car. For Dinner tonight it’s Fried Chicken Thighs w/ Fried Potatoes and Canned Green Beans.

Just a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea for Breakfast. High of 62 degrees, cloudy and very windy out today. It was one of those long and sleepless nights for me last night. The Phantom Pains started up about 2:00 this morning and continued till about 5:00 this evening! No fun! I had to have Mom at the Hospital for her first Radiation Treatment. It’s a very low dosage and they made a mask for her to wear for the Treatment. The Mask had a hole in it where they wanted the radiation to go. She was in and out in about 20 minutes. 19 Treatments to go! She did really good with it.

Just a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea for Breakfast this morning. It’s our coldest morning out there today! It was 5 degrees with a wind chill of minus 6 degrees! We had a high of 22 degrees with wind chills around 9 degrees, and we had sunshine out all day. I went out after my Tea and went to Wendy’s and picked up Breakfast for Mom. After Lunch I went over to where Mom is going to get her treatments. I had not been there before and I wanted to see how to get there. Back home just did some things around the house. For Dinner tonight I prepared a Pulled Chicken Sandwich / Tossed Salad.

We had plenty of of the Crockpot Chicken leftover so I’m using some of that to make my Sandwich. I had already pulled the remaining Chicken last night and had it in a large plastic container in the fridge. I heated up enough for a couple of Sandwiches.

I next toasted a couple of slices of Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Wheat Bread. Topped it with Kraft Mayo with Olive Oil. Then added a slice of Swiss Cheese and added the Chicken. One Delicious Sandwich!

For a side I had a Salad. I used Dole Salad, sliced a Boiled Egg, and topped it with Kraft Catalina Lite Dressing. Love this Dressing! For Dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Pudding.

Today’s Menu: Slow Cooker Whole Chicken w/ Green Beans, Mashed Potatoes and Dinner Roll

For Breakfast this morning I fried up some Cook’s Ham Steak, Simply Potatoes Shredded Hash Browns, an Over Easy Egg, and my morning cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 26 degrees this morning and had a high of 29 degrees, but the wind kept it in the teens. After Lunch I took Mom’s car up to the car wash and vacuumed it out. Then stopped and filled it with gas at our local UDF Store. Went around and put up garbage cans for 5 of my neighbors after the trash ran. Just did a few things around the house. For Dinner tonight I prepared a Slow Cooker Whole Chicken w/ Green Beans, Mashed Potatoes and Dinner Roll.

We had a Katie’s Best Whole Chicken Roaster in the freezer that I sat in the fridge overnight to thaw. It weighed about 3 3/4 lb. I decided to cook it in the Crockpot. I used a small Crockpot. I lined it with a Crockpot Liner and sprayed it with Pam and 2 tablespoons of Cooking Olive Oil. Added a 1/4 cup of water and heated it on high heat. As the Pot was heating I then seasoned it with a mixture of Salt, Pepper, Smoked Paprika, Onion Powder, Garlic Powder and Cumin. I mixed up all the Spices in a small bowl. Then seasoned all sides of the Roaster and on the inside. Then added it to the Crockpot.

Cooked for 4 hours and done! It turned out as good if not better than any Rotisserie Chicken you could buy! Tender and so moist with great flavor from the Spices. Katie’s Chicken does it again!

Then for sides I heat up the leftover Mashed Potatoes and Green Beans from a night ago. Also had an Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Dinner Roll. For Dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Cherry Jello.

Added the Chicken Breasts to the heated Skillet. I cooked the Chicken for 4 minutes and then flipped them over and cooked them for 4 more minutes, until golden brown and the meat thermometer read 165 degrees. The Chicken turned out delicious! Cooked up perfect, nice crust, and love the seasoning! Served it with Kraft Hickory Smoked BBQ Sauce for dipping.

For 1 side I prepared a packet of Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice Long Grain and Wild. It comes in a microwavable bag. I microwaved it for 90 seconds and done! I guess my favorite among the Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice, all though I love using them all. An easy to fix item, just microwave for 90 seconds and it’s ready. I love Rice and it pairs perfectly with many Dishes.

I also had a Tossed Salad. I had a bag of Dole Greener Selection Salad. For the Salad Dressing I used Kraft Fat Free Classic Catalina Dressing along with a sprinkle of Oscar Mayer Real Bacon Pieces. For Dessert/Snack later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Snyder’s Pretzels with a Diet Dr. Pepper to drink.
