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: Grilled Mettwursts w/ Baked Fries
To start this morning off I prepared a Poached Egg and served it on a toasted Thomas Light 100% Multi Grain English Muffin. I also heated up a couple of Johnsonville Turkey Breakfast Sausage 
Links had my morning cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Mostly cloudy and 64 degrees out today. The wind is blowing around 20 miles per hour and there’s a bit of nip in air! Got the cart out of the shed and did some yard work and I planted 4 Tomato Plants that I had bought Mom yesterday. We have a nice little mini garden going. Tomato Plants, a Rosemary plant, a couple of Parsley plants, 2 Bell Pepper plants, a Thai Pepper Plant, a Jalapeno Plant, and 4 Strawberry plants. For Dinner tonight I fired the Grill back up. Tonight its Grilled Lean Mettwursts w/ Baked Fries.
I had a package of the Blue Grass Lean Mettwursts that I bought from Jungle Jim’s in the freezer. Sat the package in the fridge over night to thaw. There’s 6 Sausages that come in the package. I 
greased the grill grates and fired the grill up! I prepared all 6 of the of the Metts, we’ll have the leftovers for a couple of Lunches. We served the Sausages on Aunt Millie’s Light Whole Grain Hot Dog Buns and topped them with French’s Spicy Brown Mustard. Nothing like Grilling! These are 70 less calories than the normal Mett, bought 4 packages of those and have them in the freezer.
I also prepared some Ore Ida Golden Crinkle Cut French Fries. Like all the Ore Ida Products, they are easy to prepare and delicious. I just baked them for 19 minutes and done! Served them with a 
side of Hunt’s Ketchup. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn with a Coke Zero to drink.

Today’s Menu: Grilled Cheese Buffalo Burger and Baked Fries
To start the this day off I toasted a Thomas Light English Muffin. Next I lightly fried up a few slices of Boar’s Head Sweet Slice Ham and added a 1/2 slice of Boar’s Head Vermont Cheddar. Served it 
on the English Muffin and I have my Breakfast Sandwich. I also and had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 75 degrees, humid, with a passing shower out today. Plus the Pollen and Mold count is high again! So I wasn’t outside very much. Did a few chores inside today. So for Dinner tonight I prepared a Grilled Buffalo Cheese Burger and Baked Fries tonight.
For the Buffalo Burger I used my favorite, the Wild Idea Buffalo 1/3-Lb Buffalo Burgers as usual. Their meaty, juicy and just flat out delicious! I had the Burger in the freezer so I laid in the fridge overnight to thaw. To prepare it I fired up the Grill! I first rubbed the Burger with some Extra Light Olive Oil on both sides then seasoned my Burger with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Peppercorn Medley. With the Grill heated I started grilling. I grilled the Buffalo Burger and Brat and a couple of Brats for Mom. I grilled the Burger about 3 minutes and flipped it over. After 2 minutes I added a slice of Boar’s Head Yellow Vermont Cheddar and cooked it another 1 minute and done! Served the Burger on a Aunt Millie’s Reduced Calorie Whole Grain Hamburger Bun. The Burger was juicy and delicious, as all the Wild Idea Burgers are. Just love a good Burger, Buffalo Burger!
To go with my Burger I prepared some Ore Ida Golden Crinkle Cut French Fries for us. Like all the Ore Ida Products, they are easy to prepare and delicious. I just baked them for 20 minutes and done! Served them with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup. For Dessert later a Jello Sugar Free dark Chocolate Pudding.

Today’s Menu: BBQ Pulled Buffalo Chuck Roast Sandwich w/ Baked Crinkle Fries
For Breakfast it was Skillet Potatoes and Ham for Breakfast. I used 1 package of Simply Potatoes Steakhouse Seasoned Diced Potatoes and a package of Meijer Diced Ham to prepare it. Just cook
the Potatoes according to the package instructions and with about 5 minutes of cooking time left add the Diced Ham. I topped it with a sprinkle of Sargento Reduced Fat Cheddar/Jack Cheese. Just love this skillet meal! Cloudy and 84 degrees out there today. I had to have Mom at the Dermatologist at 11:30. Just a follow up to the precancer cells that were on her face. Plus she’s still moving slow from the fall she took on Monday. We stopped by Meijer after the Doctor visit, Meijer just a 1/2 mile down the road. So for Dinner tonight I prepared a BBQ Pulled Buffalo Chuck Roast Sandwich w/ Baked Crinkle Fries.
I’m using the Wild Idea Buffalo Pulled Chuck Roast. This is so tender and incredibly flavorful. It comes already cooked and seasoned, so just heat and serve! Seasoned with, Organic Apple Cider, 
Organic Lime Juice, Onion Powder, Cumin, Sea Salt, Black Pepper, Chili Powder, Paprika, Garlic Powder, Oregano, Cayenne Pepper. And that’s why it’s so flavorful! Delicious Pulled Buffalo that you just heat and serve.
I used a small sauce pan that I sprayed with Pam Non Stick Cooking Spray. Added the Buffalo and heated it on medium low until heated through. I served it on a Aunt Millie’s Reduced Calorie 
Whole Grain Hamburger Bun and topped it with some Jack Daniel’s Honey Smokehouse BBQ Sauce. What a sandwich, just incredible flavor! The Wild Idea Buffalo Pulled Buffalo Chuck Roast is so flavorful and tender. It just has such a deep and rich flavor to it.
For my Fries I’m using Ore Ida Crinkle Cut Fries. Seasoned them with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Black Peppercorn Medley. Baked them at 425 degrees for 16 minutes. They bake up beautifully and seasoned just right, excellent Shoestring Fry! Plus they are only 120 calories and 15 net carbs. For Dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Pudding topped with Cool Whip Free.

Today’s Menu: Grilled Turkey Bratwursts and Baked Fries
For Breakfast this morning I had a Jimmy Dean Simple Scramble Cup – Crumbled Turkey Sausage, Egg Whites, Cheddar Cheese. I also had a cup of Bigelow decaf Green Tea. Partly cloudy and 81 
degrees out today. After Breakfast I went to Kroger for a couple of items for Mom and stopped by McDonald’s to pick up Breakfast for Mom. Cleaned the house and did laundry. Had to stick close to the house today. Mom is really sore from the fall she took. But we are very thankful she didn’t break anything! For Dinner tonight I prepared Grilled Brats, Baked Fries and Beans.
Having the new Brats I came across at Meijer last week, Johnsonville Fresh Turkey Premium Original Bratwurst. They are so delicious fresh! They are natural meat color instead of the usual white 
colored Brats.
I went out and started the grill. Back inside I got the Bratwursts out of the fridge and sprayed them with Pam Non Stick Spray. With the grill ready I added the Brats and shut the lid of the grill. 
Grilled them for about 18 minutes, turning links often.
The Brats came out incredible again! These are excellent Brats. Grilled up great, great tasting, and stayed firm after cooking. All good traits of Bratwursts. I’ve got a couple of packages in the 
freezer! Served them on a Aunt Millie’s Reduced Calorie Hot Dog Bun and topped them with French’s Spicy Brown Mustard.
To go with my Brats I prepared some Ore Ida Golden Crinkle Cut French Fries for us. Like all the Ore Ida Products, they are easy to prepare and delicious. I just baked them for 19 minutes and done! Served them with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn with a Coke Zero to drink.

Today’s Menu: Lemon Pepper and Cumin Crusted Walleye Fillet w/ Baked Tater Tots
To start this Friday morning off I had a Jimmy Dean Simple Scramble – Turkey Sausage, Egg Whites, Shredded Cheddar Cheese. Love these, so easy to prepare and make a good Breakfast. Plus 
they are only 150 calories and 3 carbs per cup! The same weather outside again. Passing rain and thunderstorms, humid, and 79 degrees. Had to go to the local Kroger to pick up a couple of items and a prescription for Mom. Cleaned the Kitchen and then took it easy for the afternoon. I’m still dealing with my allergies, everyone around here is suffering! For Dinner tonight Cumin Crusted Walleye Fillet w/ Baked Tater Tots.
I came across the recipe on the Diabetic Gourmet Magazine website, CUMIN-CRUSTED FISH FILLET WITH LEMON. I’ll be using Walleye as my Fish of Choice. Then for Seasoning I’ll need; Ground 
Cumin, Thyme, Paprika, Lemon Pepper, and Parsley. I left the original recipe and it’s web link at the end of the post. But after thinking about it I’m going to use Zatarain’s Lemon Pepper Breading Mix. I did add a bit of Ground Cumin to the Breading Mix. I’m all for making Cooking easier while keeping the flavors and taste. I had the Walleye in the freezer in a plastic Hefty Bag. Laid it in the fridge overnight to thaw. To prepare it, in a pie pan I added the Zatarain Mix. Rubbed the mix on both sides of fillets.
Then in a large skillet, set over medium heat, heat Extra Light Olive Oil. Add the Walleye and cook until browned on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Sprinkled with parsley and done! Love all 
the Zatarain’s Mixes on Fish and Seafood!
To go with my Walleye, as it 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. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn and a Diet Peach Snapple to drink.
CUMIN-CRUSTED FISH FILLET WITH LEMON
Ingredients
1/2 to 1 Tbsp ground cumin 
1/4 tsp thyme
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp lemon pepper

Today’s Menu: Grilled Turkey Bratwursts and Baked Fries
For Breakfast I toasted a Thomas Light English Muffin and topped it with Smucker’s Sugarless Blackberry Jam. Also had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 85 degrees, humid, and a chance of a shower. Same weather for the next week or so. Got the cart and leaf blower out of the shed to do some yard work. Sprayed for weeds then cleaned off the deck and driveway areas. The sun is too hot and too humid to stay out any long periods. Took a spin around the neighborhood and went down by the lake for a bit. For Dinner tonight I prepared Grilled Turkey Bratwursts and Baked Fries.
Tried a new Brat I came across at Meijer the other day, Johnsonville Fresh Turkey Premium Original Bratwurst. They looked delicious so I thought I would give them a try. They are natural meat color instead of the usual white colored Brats.
I went out and started the grill. Back inside I got the Bratwursts out of the fridge and sprayed them with Pam Non Stick Spray. With the grill ready I added the Brats and shut the lid of the grill. Grilled them for about 21 minutes, turning links often.
The Brats came out incredible! These are excellent Brats. Grilled up great, great tasting, and stayed firm after cooking. All good traits of Bratwursts. I’ll purchase more of these soon! Served them on a Aunt Millie’s Reduced Calorie Hot Dog Bun and topped them with French’s Spicy Brown Mustard.

Today’s Menu: Grilled Cheese Buffalo Burger and Baked Fries
To start the this day off I prepared Butterball Hardwood Smoked Turkey Sausage. As that was cooking I toasted a Thomas Light English Muffin. I cut the Sausage Link in half and then split it down the center and served it on the English Muffin. Topped the Sausage with a bit of French’s Spicy Brown Mustard. I also and had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 85 degrees, cloudy with a passing shower out today. As most Memorial Day Weekend’s, its humid, hot, and rainy! Although last year’s was pretty nice. After Lunch we went out to the Cemetery along with my Aunt and we put flowers and cleaned off the family’s tombstone’s. My Grand Parents, Brother, Aunt, Uncles, and Cousins are all buried in the same Cemetery. It doesn’t seem possible that Dad will have been gone a year ago next month. We sure miss him. So for Dinner tonight I prepared a Grilled Buffalo Cheese Burger and Baked Fries tonight.
For the Buffalo Burger I used my favorite, the Wild Idea Buffalo 1/3-Lb Buffalo Burgers as usual. Their meaty, juicy and just flat out delicious! I had the Burger in the freezer so I laid in the fridge overnight to thaw. Used a Paper Towel and rubbed it in some Extra Light Olive Oil. Then rubbed the Grill Grate down with it. Then fired up the Grill! Seasoned my Burger with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Peppercorn Medley. With the Grill heated I started grilling. I grilled the Buffalo Burger and Brat and Mett for Mom.

Today’s Menu: Fish Sandwich Fillet Sandwich w/ Baked Tater Tots
Just a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea this morning for Breakfast. Partly cloudy and 68 degrees out today. Afterward I had to follow my neighbor to the repair shop. He dropped his car off and I gave him a ride back. Then later in the afternoon I took him back to pick his car up. Not much else going on today. For Dinner tonight I prepared a Fish Sandwich Fillet Sandwich w/ Baked Tater Tots.
I used Van De Kamps – Fish Sandwich Fillets for my Fish. Having these reminds me of the Lunch Menu in High School every Friday! Anyway very easy to prepare. Removed the Fish from the plastic pouch. Heated the oven at 425 degrees. Placed the Frozen Fish Fillets in a single layer evenly on a baking sheet. Place the pan on the oven rack. Bake uncovered 21 minutes. I turned the Fish Fillets over halfway through baking.
These turned out perfect! Golden Brown and nice Flavor to them. I topped the Fish with a slice of Kraft Deli Style Sharp Cheddar Cheese and served it on a Aunt Millie’s Reduced Calorie Hamburger Bun.
I also baked some Ore Ida Tater Tots as I was baking the Fish. Just baked at 425 degrees for about 20 minutes and done! The Tater Tots come out golden brown and delicious! I served them with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn and a Diet Dr. Pepper to drink.

Change of Menu – Grilled Ham and Swiss Sandwich w/ Baked Fries

Today’s Menu: Change of Menu – Grilled Ham and Swiss Sandwich w/ Baked Fries
For Breakfast this morning I had a toasted Thomas Light English Muffin, fried up 2 Jennie – O Turkey Breakfast Sausage Links, and a cup of Bigelow decaf Green Tea. Had a passing Thunderstorm
pass through this morning. Cleared up later and had a high of 74 degrees. After Breakfast I went to McDonald’s and picked up Breakfast for Mom. She went on to Church afterward. I did a load of laundry and cleaned the house today. Later after Lunch I got the cart out and took a spin around the neighborhood. For Dinner tonight Grilled Ham and Swiss Sandwich w/ Baked Fries.
Another day of having a Dinner planned out but last minute changes! I spent most of the day outside doing things around the house and shed that I just didn’t feel like cooking a full meal and I
wanted something lighter. So its a Grilled Ham and Swiss with Baked Fries. To prepare the Sandwiches I’ll need; Boar’s Head Sweet Slice Ham, Sargento Reduced Fat Swiss Cheese, French’s Yellow Mustard, Kraft Reduced Fat Mayo w/ Olive Oil, and Goldminer California Sourdough Bread. I used the flat top Griddle to grill it with. I sprayed the griddle with a very light coat of Pam Cooking Spray and spread about 1/2 tablespoon of Blue Bonnet Light Butter on it. Heated it on medium heat. I also turned the oven on at 425 degrees, for the Fries.
While the griddle was heating I got the Sandwich ready to grill. Took a slice of the Sour Dough Bread and topped it with some of the Kraft Mayo, the Boar’s Head Ham, the Sargento Swiss, French’s
Mustard, and added the top slice of the Sour Dough Bread. I then Buttered the bottom and top halves of the Bread with Blue Bonnet Butter. With the griddle heated I grilled my Sandwich. Grilled the bottom half just over 3 minutes, then flipped it over and grilled the other side about 2 1/2 minutes. Until both sides were golden brown! I love Grilled Sandwiches!
I had already preheated the oven, so as the Sandwich was finishing cooking I baked my Fries, I’m using Alexia Organic Yukon Select Fries for a change. Seasoned them with McCormick Grinder Sea
Salt and Black Peppercorn Medley. Baked them at 425 degrees for 16 minutes. They bake up beautifully and seasoned just right, excellent Shoestring Fry! Plus they are only 120 calories and 15 net carbs. It’s an easy prepared but hot and filling meal. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn and a Diet Peach Snapple to drink.
