Today’s Menu: Bacon and Cheese Buffalo Burger w/ Baked Fries

For Breakfast I made a couple of slices of French Toast, 2 Johnsonville Turkey Breakfast Sausage Links and a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. To top the French Toast I used Log Cabin Sugar Free Maple Syrup, only 10 calories and 4 carbs per serving. 94 degrees, partly sunny, and humid out there today. I got all my watering and yard work done early to beat the heat. Later on I cleaned and straightened up the freezer and fridge. For Dinner tonight I had a Bacon and Cheese Buffalo Burger w/ Baked Fries.

I just love these Buffalo Burgers! I used Boar’s Head Bacon for my Burger topping. Heated up a medium size skillet on medium heat and fried the Bacon until it was heated through. Removed it from the skillet to a Paper Towel lined plate, and set aside. Always remember when frying Bacon use Bacon Math. Just decide how many slices you’ll need and double it. Because, at least when I fry Bacon, you end up eating as much as you fix as you’re preparing it!

For the Buffalo Burger I used my favorite, the Wild Idea Buffalo 1/3-Lb Buffalo Burgers as usual. They’re meaty, juicy and just flat out delicious! Preheated up a small skillet that I sprayed with Pam Non Stick Cooking Spray, seasoned my Burger with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Peppercorn Medley. I then pan fried it, in Extra Light Olive Oil, about 3 1/2 minutes per side. After flipping the Burger I added a slice of Kraft Deluxe Sharp Cheddar Cheese, with about 1 minute of cooking time left. Topped it with the Bacon and served it on a Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Hamburger Bun. I love a good Buffalo Burger!

To go with my Burger I baked some Ore Ida Golden Fries with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup for dipping. For Dessert/Snack later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Snyder’s Pretzel Sticks with a Diet Peach Snapple to drink.

Wild Idea Buffalo 1/3-Lb Buffalo Burgers

Today’s Menu: Buttermilk Marinated Thin Sliced Chicken Breast Sandwiches and Baked Fries

For Breakfast I had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Sunny and less humid, with a high of 88 degrees. After my Tea I went to Meijer for a neighbor then on the way home stopped at McDonald’s and picked up Breakfast for Mom. Watered everything down and did some yard work. For Dinner tonight I prepared Buttermilk Marinated Thin Sliced Chicken Breast Sandwiches with some Baked Fries.

For the Chicken I used the 2 leftover Chicken Breasts from last night’s Dinner. To reheat them I heated the oven to 350 degrees. Then I used a small baking dish, sprayed it with Pam Cooking Spray. Added the Chicken to the baking dish and heated the Chicken until heated through. Again I used our favorite Chicken, Katie’s Best Chicken.

To make Sandwich I topped each Chicken Breast with a slice of Swiss Cheese, added some Emeril Deli Style Mustard and served on an Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Hamburger Bun. Fantastic and Delicious Chicken Sandwich. I love leftovers.

For a side I baked some Ore Ida Golden Fries that I served with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup. For Dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Cherry Jello. Take Care and Stay Safe All!

Today’s Menu: Fish Sandwich Fillet Sandwich w/ Baked Golden Fries

I had to fast again for my Doctor Appointment at 8:00 this morning. I had to go to my family Doctor to test my Sugar, Cholesterol and such. From my Urologist Doctor visit yesterday they found that had blood in my urine. Not a lot but traces. So to be on the safe side I have to go to the Hospital for an Ultrasound to see if they can tell where the blood is coming from. It’s another miserable day out there. It’s 95 degrees with a heat index at 107 degrees, it’s so humid out there. It’s way too hot out there to do anything much. For Dinner tonight I prepared a Fish Sandwich Fillet Sandwich w/ Baked Golden Fries.

I used Gorton’s Fish Sandwich Fillets, our favorite! Very easy to prepare. Removed the Fish from the bag. 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 for 15 minutes. I turned the Fish Fillets over halfway through the baking process.

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 an Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Hamburger Bun (2 carbs).

I also prepared some Ore Ida Fries with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup for dipping. For Dessert/Snack later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Snyder’s Pretzels with a Diet Mango/Tea Snapple to drink.

Sharp Cheddar and Bacon Turkey Burger w/ Baked Fries

Today’s Menu: Sharp Cheddar and Bacon Turkey Burger w/ Baked Fries

To start the day I Scrambled a couple of Eggs, toasted 2 slices of Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Wheat Bread, and had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. It is one hot and humid day out there! 91 degrees but with bad humidity out there it feels like 100 degrees. You can walk outside and it feels like you are walking into a sauna. Even worse tomorrow they say. I have a couple of Doctor yearly checkups this week. Stayed indoors, too hot and humid out there. For Dinner tonight it’s a Sharp Cheddar and Chicken Bacon Turkey Burger w/ Baked Fries.

I first fried the Bacon. I started by grabbing a skillet and spraying it with Pam Non Stick Cooking Spray and heating it on medium heat. For the Bacon I’m using Kroger Private Selection Double Smoked Bacon. It fries up perfect with an excellent taste. I need 2 slices but fried 5 slices. Always remember when frying Bacon use the Bacon Math. Just decide how many slices you’ll need and double it or so. Because, at least when I fry Bacon, you end up eating as much as you fry as you’re preparing it!

I had bought a package of the Jennie – O Lean 93% Lean Turkey Burger Patties at Meijer and had them in the freezer. I grabbed a couple of them last night and let it thaw in the fridge overnight. To prepare the Burger I grabbed a skillet, sprayed it with Pam and added 2 teaspoons of Extra Light Olive Oil, heated it on medium heat. When ready I added the Turkey Burger and cooked it for 12 minutes flipping it 3 times. With a minute of cooking time left I added a slice of Kraft Deli Deluxe Sharp Cheddar Cheese. And done!

Added the Bacon, Lettuce, some Hellman’s Spicy Chipotle Mayonnaise (my favorite Mayo) and served it on a Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Hamburger Bun. Just love these Burgers, juicy and delicious, and with the Sharp Cheddar and Bacon it makes it that much better! I love this Mayo. The Hellman’s Spicy Chipotle Mayonnaise is nice and creamy with excellent flavor, with a little kick to it!

I also baked some Ore Ida Crinkle Cut Fries. I baked them for 20 minutes and done. Served them with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup. For Dessert/Snack later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Snyder’s Pretzel Sticks with a Diet Dr. Pepper to drink.

Panko Crispy Turkey Tenderloins w/ Baked Fries

Today’s Menu: Panko Crispy Turkey Tenderloins w/ Baked Fries

For Breakfast I toasted a Thomas Light English Muffin that I topped with Smucker’s Sugar Free Blackberry Jam. I also had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. After Breakfast I did a load of laundry. Then I went and picked up Breakfast for Mom at Wendy’s. Back home watered all the plants and then cleaned off the deck and driveway areas. Later on I went to Walgreen’s and picked up a Prescription. For Dinner tonight I prepared Panko Crispy Turkey Tenderloins w/ Baked Fries.

I purchased another package of the JENNIE-O® Extra Lean Boneless Turkey Breast Tenderloins at Meijer. There’s only 120 calories, 1 gram of fat and 0 carbs per serving! I’m preparing them the same way as last time we had them. I had looked around at different recipes and I combined a couple of ideas from a few of them to prepare the Tenderloins. I’m making Panko Crispy Turkey Tenderloins. To make these I’ll be needing 1/3 of a cup Low Fat Buttermilk, 3/4 teaspoon (or more) of Frank’s Hot Sauce, 1/4 teaspoon of Garlic Powder, 1/4 teaspoon Onion Powder, Sea Salt, 1 package of JENNIE-O® Extra Lean Boneless Turkey Breast Tenderloins (sliced into smaller strips), Extra Light Olive Oil for frying, 1 cup All-Purpose Flour, 2 teaspoons Hungarian Paprika, Grinder Black Peppercorn, 2 cups Progresso Panko Breadcrumbs, 1 1/2 tablespoons Chile Powder, and 2 Large Eggs or Egg Beater’s which is what I used.

Then to prepare them; You’ll be needing 3 bowls. Whisk the Buttermilk, Hot Sauce, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, and Sea salt in a small bowl. Place the sliced Turkey in a resealable plastic bag and pour in the Buttermilk Marinade. I refrigerated them for 3 hours.

When ready I got a large Cast-Iron Skillet and added3 tablespoons of the Olive Oil to it and heated it on medium heat. As the skillet was heating I put the Flour in a bowl and seasoned it with the Paprika and Sea Salt and Pepper. I then put the Panko in another bowl and season it with the Chile powder and Salt and Pepper. And finally I poured the Egg Beater’s in the last bowl.

I removed the Turkey from the Marinade, allowing the excess to drip off. I dredged the Turkey first in the Flour, then in the Egg Beater’s and finally coat them with the Panko. With the cast Iron Skillet heated I fried the Turkey in batches, always being careful not to overcrowd the skillet, until golden brown and an instant read thermometer inserted into the center read 160 degrees. I fried them 4 minutes per side.

These came out so delicious! They came out Golden Brown, Tender and so Flavorful. The Spices worked perfect and the Panko Breadcrumbs gave it a fantastic crunch. I served these with some Blue Cheese Dressing for dipping. I also baked some Ore Ida Crinkle Cut Fries. Then for Dessert/Snack a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Snyder’s Pretzels with a Diet Dr. Pepper to drink.

Today’s Menu: Grilled Ham and Swiss w/ Baked Golden Fries

To start my day off I had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 87 degrees, humid, and mostly sunny out. We had thunderstorms moving in later. We had to have Mom’s car over to Safe Light at 10:00 to have the window replaced. It took a while to get some parts in for it. They did a great job there. Back home watered my garden and Mom’s flowers. So for Dinner tonight I prepared a Boar’s Head Sweet Slice Ham, Dietz and Watson Swiss Cheese, French’s Yellow Mustard, Kraft Reduced Fat Mayo w/ Olive Oil, and Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Wheat Bread.

To prepare the Sandwich I’ll need; Boar’s Head Sweet Slice Ham, Dietz and Watson Swiss Cheese, French’s Yellow Mustard, Kraft Reduced Fat Mayo w/ Olive Oil, and Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Wheat Bread.

To grill it I used a small Cast Iron Skillet with a very light coat of Pam Cooking Spray and spread about 1/2 tablespoon of Blue Bonnet Light Butter in it. Heat it on medium heat. I also turned the oven on at 425 degrees, for the Fries.

While the Cast Iron was heating I got the Sandwich ready to grill. Took a slice of the 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 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 for just over 3 minutes, then flipped it over and grilled the other side for about 3 minutes. Until both sides were golden brown! I love these Grilled Sandwiches!

I also prepared some Ore Ida Golden Fries with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup for dipping. For Dessert/Snack later Had a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Snyder’s Pretzels along with a Diet Dr. Pepper to drink.

Boar’s Head Sweet Slice Boneless Smoked Ham
With natural juices.

Enjoy the exceptional flavor of a traditional bone-in ham without the bone. Available in the Deli retail case as a center of the plate item or at the Service Deli sliced by the pound for a sandwich of note.

Today’s Menu: “Not So Sloppy” Turkey Joes w/ Baked Crinkle Fries

For Breakfast I made my Skillet Potatoes and Diced Ham for Breakfast. I used 1 package of Simply Potatoes Seasoned Diced Potatoes and a package of Kroger 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 Sargento Off the Block Sharp Cheddar Cheese. Also had my morning cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 74 degrees, windy and sunny outside. When it rains it pours, as the saying goes! They haven’t been able to find a part to repair Mom’s passenger window that shattered, in the hallway bathroom the toilet was leaking and it turned into an all day job for the repair guy, my Hoveround broke down on me and we’ve been 2 days repairing that, and a couple of little things that went wrong on top of it. Enough is enough! I’m out a lot of money, which takes me a while to save back. None of it wasted money but money spent still the same. I sure hope it turns the other way soon! But we have our health! For dinner tonight it was a Comfort Food Sandwich! I prepared some “Not So Sloppy” Turkey Joes w/ Baked Crinkle Fries.

I used my favorite Sloppy Joe Mix, the Hormel Not-So-Sloppy-Joe Sloppy Joe Sauce. I love this Sauce and it’s ingredients! It’s a nice thick Sauce that’s seasoned just right. Which is why they call it Not So Sloppy, it’s thicker than other Sauces and doesn’t drip as much. The Sauce is seasoned with Spices, Onions, Green Peppers among other ingredients (70 calories and 15 carbs per serving). I’ll also be using Jennie – O Extra Lean Ground Turkey Breast (120 calories per serving) and Healthy Life Wheat Hamburger Buns. I normally use Aunt Millie’s Buns but they were out and I had to use the Healthy Life Buns.

So to prepare it; I started by frying the Ground Turkey. I used a large skillet; sprayed it with Pam Cooking Spray and added a tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Heated it on medium heat. Added the Ground Turkey and seasoned it with Sea Salt, Ground Roasted Cumin, Cilantro Flakes. Stirred and cooked until no longer pink, added the jar of Not So Sloppy Joe sauce. Stirred until heated through. Served on Healthy Life Hamburger Bun. The Sauce combined with the Jennie – O Turkey is a perfect match.

For a side I baked some Ore Ida Crinkle Fries, served with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup. For Dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Cherry Jello. Take Care and Stay Safe Everyone!

Hormel Not-So-Sloppy-Joe Sloppy Joe Sauce

Richer and Thicker and Far From Ordinary
Not-So-Sloppy-Joe® sloppy joe sauce is as distinctive as its name. Not-So-Sloppy-Joe® sloppy joe sauce has a hint of barbecue flavor and is richer and thicker than other sloppy joe sauces.

Since its beginning in 1985, there’s been one very graphic way to show the thick and rich texture of Not-So-Sloppy-Joe® sloppy joe sauce: the “drip test.” When you hold up a sloppy joe made with Not-So-Sloppy-Joe® sloppy joe sauce, there are no drips. It’s that rich and thick.

Today’s Menu: Sliced Pork Tenderloin Mini Sub w/ Baked Fries

Just a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea to start my day. After my Tea I had to head back to Meijer to return a couple of items. On the way back home I stopped at Wendy’s and picked up Breakfast for Mom. Back home I helped Mom get her potted flowers planted. She had like 4 pots of them. I bought her those and 3 hanging baskets of flowers for Mother’s Day. Anything for Mom! For Dinner tonight I prepared Sliced Pork Tenderloin Mini Sub w/ Baked Fries.

To make this Delicious Mini Sub I’ll be using a Meijer Boneless Pork Tenderloin, Pennsylvania Dutchman Sliced Mushrooms, Emeril’s Deli Style Mustard, and Perfection Mini Sub White Roll.

I love Pork Tenderloin! I purchased Pork Tenderloin from Meijer the yesterday. To make the dish I’ll need; 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 1 pork Tenderloin, 1 tbsp Roasted Cumin, 1 tsp Garlic Powder, 1 tsp Chili Powder, 1 teaspoon Sea Salt, 1/2 teaspoon Hungarian Paprika, 2 teaspoons Dried Oregano, and 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper. To prepare it, preheat the oven to 350°. Combine all the ingredients; rub it all over the pork. Let stand for 20 minutes. Heat the oil in a Cast Iron Skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork to pan; cook for 4 minutes, browning on all sides. From the stove to the oven; Bake at 400° for 10 minutes or until a thermometer registers 155° (slightly pink), turning after 7 minutes. Remove from the skillet into a platter or dish and let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Then get ready to enjoy one delicious Pork Tenderloin! Fantastic combo of Spices, which makes one incredible Crust on the Pork with the inside being tender and moist! This is my favorite Pork Recipe by far!

I’ve made this a couple of times now. Anyway I let the Pork rest for 5 minutes or so before slicing. I then sliced the Tenderloin into thin slices. After I finished slicing it I let it marinate in its own juices until ready to use. Wow, what a Pork Tenderloin! It was so tender and juicy with flavor that was incredible.

For a side I baked some Ore Ida Golden Fries that I served with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup. For Dessert later a slice of Apple Pie! Mom made an Apple Pie using Splenda instead of Sugar. And it just melts in your mouth! Take Care and Stay Safe Everyone!

Pork Tenderloin….
Pork tenderloin is one of the leanest, most tender cuts of meat on the market, so it can also be a little spendy. Pork loin, on the other hand, can often be a bargain choice if you’re looking for a tender cut of meat that cooks well for a crowd. Pork tenderloin and other loin cuts are excellent sources of protein, thiamine, vitamin B6, phosphorus and niacin and good sources of potassium, riboflavin and zinc.

Today’s Menu: Ground Pork Burger and Baked Fries

For Breakfast I had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 72 degrees and sunny out today. I had to have Mom to her hearing aid doctor appointment at 12:00. She had to find a new hearing aid place. Her old one was no longer in business. These will be so much better for her. Back home watered all the plants and swept the deck off. For Dinner tonight I prepared a Ground Pork Burger and Baked Fries.

I had bought a package of Ground Pork at Meijer. I opened the package up and made it into 4 Patties. I froze 3 of them and kept one out for my Dinner Tonight. I love Ground Pork, it has such good flavor and fries up perfectly!

After 3 minutes flip the burgers. Continued cooking for 4 minutes more. Flip one more time and cook for another 2 minutes or until cooked through. If you’re adding on Cheese go ahead and do so with about a minute before removing them from the pan. I’m using Boar’s Head Asiago Cheese. When cooking Pork Burgers, you want to make sure that they are cooked all the way through. Which means taking them to 160 degrees internally. I served the Burgers on Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Hamburger Buns. The Burgers were topped with a slice of Sargento Reduced Fat Pepper Jack Cheese and Hellman’s Organic Spicy Chipotle Mayonnaise. Then served on a Pepperidge Onion with Poppy Seeds Hamburger Bun. The Pepperidge Buns I’m using are a bit more calories or carbs than what I normally use but well worth it! These are so soft and fresh! The Burger came out mouth watering delicious! Excellent Pepper Jack Cheese also!

To go with the Burger I I also baked some Ore Ida Crinkle Cut Fries, served with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup for dipping. For Dessert/Snack later I had a few slices of Cracker Barrel Super Sharp Cheese and some Ritz Whole Wheat Crackers. For Dessert/Snack later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Snyder’s Pretzels with a Diet Peach Snapple to drink.

Ground Pork…….
Vitamins B6 and B12, are found abundantly in pork, are essential for blood cell formation and brain function. Pork is also an excellent source of iron — the heme-iron found in red meats is absorbed very easily by the human digestive system.

Pork. Lean pork is every bit as good for your body as lean beef and chicken. In one study, substituting lean pork for beef and chicken led to less body fat and better heart health. For a spicy take, try ancho-rubbed pork tenderloin.

Today’s Menu: 4 oz. Buffalo Cheese Burger w/ Baked Fries

Just a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea for Breakfast. 78 degrees and sunny out today! Finally a beautiful Spring Day out and on Earth Day! After my Tea I went to Meijer, still amazed at Food Prices! It’s hard seeing how big families are making it. Speaking of rising prices Gas went up 14 cents overnight. Where is it going to end? Back home it was yard work all afternoon, and loved it. Such a beautiful day. That was about it for the day. For Dinner tonight I prepared a 4 oz. Buffalo Cheese Burger w/ Baked Fries. I prepared Mom a Turkey Burger and Fries.

For my Burger I used the Wild Idea Buffalo Premium 4 oz. Burger. Same great taste and quality as the bigger Wild Idea Buffalo Burgers but these are 4 oz. Just love all the Buffalo Burgers; meaty, juicy and just flat out delicious! Preheated up a small Cast Iron Skillet that I sprayed with Pam Cooking Spray and 1/2 tablespoon of Extra Light Olive Oil, seasoned my Burger with the Wild Idea Omnivore Salt. I then pan fried it about 3 minutes per side, and done. After I flipped the Burger I added a slice of Kraft Deli Style Sharp Cheddar Cheese. I’m serving it on a Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Bun.

I also baked some Ore Ida Crinkle Cut Fries, served with a side of Hunt’s Ketchup for dipping. For Dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Cherry Jello Cup.
