Chicken and Shrimp Gumbo
Chock-full of shrimp, chicken, sausage, okra and tomatoes, this flavorful stew is a staple in Louisiana. Make it a meal and serve with Real Cornbread…..

Cast-Iron Skillet Pizza with Red Peppers, Chicken and Spinach
Whirring up roasted red peppers with olive oil and garlic makes a tangy sauce that’s a nice alternative to classic pizza sauce. Don’t have a large cast-iron skillet? Don’t fret. We tested this recipe on a pizza stone and baking sheet as well. As long as you preheat whichever one you use, the crust will come out crispy every time……

Today’s Menu: Cumin Spiced Pork Chops w/ Canned Green Beans and Sweet Corn on the Cob

For Breakfast this morning I had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 87 degrees, not as humid, and windy. About 10:00 this morning I went to Ross, Ohio with a friend to pick up some some fresh Produce. I got some Sweet Corn, 3 lbs. Half Runner Green Beans, Tomatoes for Mom and a neighbor, and South Carolina Peaches. I could eat a bushel of these Peaches! Back home, no need to water the garden the rain took care of that this morning. I cleaned the house this afternoon, ran the vacuum and dusted. Then I gave the house a good For Dinner tonight I prepared a Cumin Spiced Pork Chop w/ Canned Green Beans and Sweet Corn on the Cob.

I bought a 2 Chop Package from my Meijer the other day. To to prepare my Chops I’ll need; The Cumin Spiced Rub which consists of 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 400°. Combine all the ingredients; rub it all over the pork chop. Let stand 20 minutes. Start by heating the Extra Virgin Olive oil in a Cast Iron Skillet over medium-high heat. Add Chops to pan; cook 3 minutes, browning both sides. From the stove to the oven and bake at 400° for 15 minutes until the thermometer registered 150°, turning after 5 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Fantastic combo of Spices, which makes one incredible tasty Crust on the Chop with the inside being tender and moist! Love this seasoning on Pork!

I also prepared a Quart Jar of the Canned Green Beans. I cooked them with a piece of Fatback Pork in a kettle. Love these Canned Green Beans, they are so fresh tasting! I could have Green Beans every day, love them! It’s so good having fresh Beans in the Winter!

For another side I boiled a couple of Ears of the Sweet Corn. It came out so good. I seasoned it with Morton’s Light Salt and Blue Bonnet Light Butter. I had ordered a couple of ears from Meijer yesterday on my delivery order. For Dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Pudding.

Pork Facts….
One serving of pork is 3 ounces, or about the size of a deck of cards, according to the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute. An image of the portion size is important because a thick pork chop can be twice that size and without realizing it you can eat double the calories. You’ll get 137 calories and 4 grams of fat from a 3-ounce pork chop. Pork is similar to chicken, with 3 ounces of chicken breast containing 140 calories and 3 grams of fat. A pork chop has 65 milligrams of cholesterol, compared to 72 grams in chicken breast, but they both have just 1 gram of saturated fat.

Green Beans Health Benefits………….
You should learn to love green beans with all of your heart – their powerful combination of fiber, folate, and the minerals magnesium and potassium make green beans a super food for cardiovascular health. Green beans are a healthy addition to almost any eating plan because they are a low-calorie, low-fat source of energy.

Healthy Cornbread Recipes
Find healthy, delicious cornbread recipes, from the food and nutrition experts at EatingWell.

Real Cornbread
This traditional cornbread is made without flour, isn’t sweet and has a crumbly texture. You can change the adaptable recipe to suit your cornbread preference. For a variation, substitute 1/2 teaspoon baking soda for the baking powder and use buttermilk instead of milk. If you’re looking for a more muffin like texture, substitute flour for half the cornmeal……

Whole-Grain Cornbread
Made with whole-grain cornmeal and white whole-wheat flour, this healthy cornbread recipe is quick enough for a weeknight and perfect to serve with chili or instead of dinner rolls. We like to make a few extra batches of the dry mix and store it in the freezer. To make a batch of cornbread, just measure out 2 cups of dry mix and combine with the liquid ingredients. If you don’t want to pull out your food processor, you can skip pureeing the corn in Step 2 and instead whisk an 8-ounce can of creamed corn with the egg, milk, oil and sugar before combining with the dry ingredients……

Creole Skillet Cornbread
Baking cornbread in a cast-iron skillet results in the ideal crispy crust enclosing a tender crumb. In this recipe, tender corn kernels provide additional texture. As with many recipes, how much sugar you like in your cornbread may depend on how your grandmother made it, so add more or less sugar to taste……

Today’s Menu: Carne Asada Marinated Buffalo Steak Strip Tacos

For Breakfast I had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 73 degrees and sunny out today. Running short on time today so I’ll just tell you about Dinner. For Dinner tonight I prepared Carne Asada Marinated Buffalo Steak Strip Tacos.

For the Buffalo I used Wild Idea Premium Steak Strips. To prepare them; I first Rinsed the Wild Idea Bison Steak Strips with water and pat them dry. I then added a light amount of Extra Light Olive Oil to them, making sure the Strips were completely covered on all sides. Then I seasoned them with Wild Idea Buffalo Omnivore Salt. The Omnivore Salt is a blend of Natural Sea Salt and Organic Spices. Then I grabbed a small Hefty Storage Bag and added some Kroger Private Selection Mexican Inspired Carne Asada Marinade. Then added the Buffalo Steak Strips and let the Steak Strips Marinate in the fridge until it was time to prepare them.

Next I got a Cast Iron Skillet and added 1 tablespoon of the Cooking Olive Oil, heated the Skillet on Medium High Heat. I got the bag out of the fridge and shook off the excess Marinade and placed the Strips on a plate to drain. Then over Medium High heat, I cooked the Bison Strips for about 4 minutes, tossing to turn occasionally. Oh the aroma when this is cooking up, it just fills the kitchen! I removed the Strips from the skillet into a bowl. These Steak Strips are so tender and delicious! Plus the Carne Asada Marinade gives it one incredible flavor! Love these Wild Idea Buffalo Premium Steak Strips.

Along with the Steak Strips I added La Preferdia Mild Jalapeno Slices, Olives (Black and Green), Lettuce Blend, fresh Shredded Dutch Gouda and all served in a La Banderita Carb Counter Tortillas. These are some of the freshest Tortillas you can find and they are only 35 calories and 3 net carbs per Tortilla. Add all this together and you have some mighty tasty Tacos.

Next just build your Taco! An Easy and Delicious Meal to prepare. For Dessert/Snack later I had a Diet Peach Snapple to drink.

Cast-iron skillet makes everything better…..

There’s a lot you can do with a cast-iron pan — as long as you use it properly. No pan gets a sear on your steak or adds flavor to fried chicken quite like a cast-iron skillet. Plus, as your skillet absorbs oil, the seasoning adds flavor to your pan, creates a natural non-sticking surface and also provides protection against rust. We have 7 different Cast Iron Skillets.

The Omnivore Salt is a blend of Natural Sea Salt and Organic Spices. Then I left the Strips rest. Next I got a Cast Iron Skillet and added 1 tablespoon of the Extra Light Olive Oil, heated the Skillet on Medium High Heat.

Over Medium High heat, I cooked the Bison Strips for about 4 minutes, tossing to turn occasionally. I removed the Strips from the skillet into a bowl. These Steak Strips are so tender and delicious! I’ve prepared these a few times now and they just keep getting better! Easily prepared also.
