Catfish Nuggets w/ Potato Pancakes and Fresh Green Beans

Dinner Tonight: Catfish Nuggets w/ Potato Pancakes and Fresh Green Beans





For Breakfast this morning I toasted a couple Eggo Waffles. Still love these after all these years! I also had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Outside its 83 degrees and humid, some places got a brief shower. After Lunch I took Mom over to the office of where Dad is at for rehab. They briefed us on how Dad was doing and when he might be released. Hope all goes well but Dad's Dementia is getting worse, not much we can do about that though. Back home not a lot going on, did a few things in and around the house. For Dinner tonight one of my favorites, Catfish Nuggets w/ Potato Pancakes and Fresh Green Beans.



Picked up the Catfish Nuggets at Kroger earlier. To prepare them I rinsed the Catfish Nuggets off in cold water and patted dry with a paper towel. Seasoned them with Sea Salt. Then put them in a Hefty Plastic Storage Bag and added Zatarain’s Crispy Southern Fish Fri Breading Mix, shook the bag until all the Nuggets were coated. Then pan fried them in a medium size skillet in Extra Light Olive Oil. Fried each side about 3 1/2 minutes, until a golden brown. The Zatarain’s Crispy Southern Fish Fri is perfect for the Catfish, great flavor and the Nuggets were good size and meaty. You can bake Catfish but for me you just can’t beat fried Catfish.




The whole family love’s Potato Pancakes! So for a side I prepared some Manischewitz Potato
Pancake Mix, my favorite (Never made a cake I didn’t like!). Just add 2 Egg Beater’s (1/2 Cup), 2 1/4 Cups Water, to the mix stir and fry! Easy and makes one good Potato Pancake and their only 80 calories and 18 carbs per serving (3 Potato Pancakes).










Next I cooked some fresh Green Beans. Mom's Cousin dropped some off to us that they had grown. Had to string them and break them up. Then boiled them with a piece of Fatback Pork in the kettle. Love these fresh Green Beans! For Dessert/Snacks I had a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn and a Diet Dr. Pepper to drink.
