Bluegrass Lean Bratwurst w/ Baked Vegetarian Beans

Dinner Tonight: Bluegrass Lean Bratwurst w/ Baked Vegetarian Beans




For Breakfast this morning I toasted a Healthy Life Whole Grain English Muffin and topped it with

Smucker's Sugar Free Blackberry Jam. Also had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. After Breakfast headed to Meijer for a few items, stopped and got gas, then stopped at McDonald's and picked up Breakfast for Mom. High of 75 degrees with showers on and off. Made Dad a couple of small loaves of Pillsbury Nut Quick Bread, his favorite. Then later in the afternoon took them over to him. It looks as though he's got a couple more weeks of rehab before possibly coming home. Back home did a few things around the house. For Dinner tonight its Bluegrass Lean Bratwurst w/ Baked Vegetarian Beans.
 


It's Brats and Beans for Dinner! Last time I was at Jungle Jim's I picked up a couple of packages of

Bluegrass Deliciously Lean Bratwurst. I had them in the freezer and got a couple of the Brats out and let them thaw overnight in the fridge. Love using these Blue Grass Lean Bratwurst, which are 100 calories and 4 carbs per Brat. To prepare them; Just add the Brats to a large skillet and add water, until the Brats are half way covered. Bring them to a brisk boil but then immediately turn down the heat to a very low boil, more of a simmer than an active boil. Simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes, then finish off in a pan with just the Brats and a little Extra Virgin Olive Oil to get a nice crispy finish. Love this method, if you're not grilling them. Delicious, plump, and they cook up great! Served it on a Aunt Millie's Reduced Calorie Whole Grain Hot Dog Bun topped with French’s Spicy Brown Mustard.





Then for a side I prepared some Bush’s Reduced Sodium Vegetarian Baked Beans. Love these Beans,
great flavor! Plus they are only 130 calories, 0 fat, and 24 net carbs per serving. To prepare the; just open the can and empty the Beans Into Saucepan. Heat To Simmer until heated through. Love these Beans! For Dessert later a Weight Watcher’s Cookies and Cream Ice Cream Bar.
