Fried Walleye w/ Whole Grain Brown Rice and Whole Baby Carrots

Dinner Tonight: Fried Walleye w/ Whole Grain Brown Rice and Whole Baby Carrots







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

Smucker’s Sugar Free Blackberry Jam. Then I prepared some Simply Potatoes Shredded Hash Browns along with frying up a couple of Jennie – O Turkey Breakfast Sausage Links. Also had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Lot of rain overnight, a couple of thunderstorms had the night lit up. Mostly cloudy today high in the 70's. After Breakfast did a load of laundry for Mom. Then after Lunch went up to see Dad for a while at rehab. He's been doing a lot better of late. Back home not a lot going on so I caught up on some shows I had recorded. For Dinner tonight its Fried Walleye w/ Whole Grain Brown Rice and Whole Baby Carrots.


I had purchased a couple of small Walleye Fillets at Meijer yesterday and had them in the fridge. To

prepare them I rinsed them off in cold water and patted them dry with a paper towel. Seasoned them with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Black Pepper Medley. Put the fillets in a Hefty Plastic Bag and added some Progresso Italian Style Bread Crumbs, sealed the bag and shook till the fillet was well coated. I then fried them in Extra Light Olive Oil on medium heat, about 3 to 4 minutes per side till golden brown! I love Walleye, as I do most Fish. Walleye is so meaty and has such a fresh flavor!










To go with the Walleye I prepared some Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice – Whole Grain Brown Rice. To
prepare it just microwave. It comes in a microwavable Pouch. Just heat for 90 seconds and serve! Rice comes out perfect, steaming hot and fluffy.








Then I also heated up a can of Kroger Brand Whole Baby Carrots. These are so much easier to
prepare than boiling fresh Baby Carrots, and they taste just as fresh and good. I also baked a loaf of Pillsbury French Bread. Then for Dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Pudding topped with Cool Whip Free.
