Baked Garlic Herbed Tilapia w/ Mac and Cheese

Dinner Tonight: Baked Garlic Herbed Tilapia w/ Mac and Cheese




I Scrambled a couple of Eggs and toasted a Healthy Life Whole Grain English Muffin. Along with a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea to start the day off. After Breakfast I went to Meijer and had to stop by Kroger for a couple of items. For the day outside its 84 degrees and humid with rain on and off. After Lunch went to spend the afternoon with Dad. He should be coming home within the next day or so. I'm not sure if it will work out or not but Mom wanted to see if he could make it here or not. Just hoping for the best! Back home for Dinner tonight I prepared a Baked Garlic Herbed Tilapia w/ Mac and Cheese.



While at Kroger earlier I picked up a 2 Fillet Package of Tilapia that had already been Seasoned with Garlic and Herbs. To prepare them I'm baking them. I preheated the oven 350 degrees. I took a small Baking Sheet and lined it with Foil and sprayed it with Pam Cooking Spray w/ Olive Oil. I sprayed both sides of the Tilapia with the Pam and layed them on the Baking Sheet. The Pam helps brown most meats when baking them. When the oven was ready I baked the Tilapia. I baked them for about 25 minutes, until they started to flaky.





I'm a Fish and Seafood lover and I love this Tilapia! Nicely Seasoned and Meaty. Tilapia can be prepared so many different ways and it cooks up so easily. And as I said it's a very Meaty Fish.

For my Mac and Cheese I'm using Bob Evan's Single Serving Cup Macaroni and Cheese. They come in a 2 pack microwavable bowl package. To prepare it; Cut a small slit in film to vent. Microwave on high power for 1 minute. Remove from microwave and stir. Continue cooking for an additional 30 to 40 seconds. Let cool for 2 minutes and serve! My type of side. An excellent Pasta with plenty of Cheese, the bowl is plenty for 1 person. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop - Pop Corn with a Diet Dr. Pepper to drink.

Seasoned Fried Haddock w/ Mac & Cheese and Cut Green Beans

Dinner Tonight: Seasoned Fried Haddock w/ Mac & Cheese Cut Green Beans

Somewhat warmer today, mid 40's, but cloudy and rain on and off. More rain on the way for the next couple of days they say. Spent part of the afternoon with Dad at the rehab and then stopped by the grocery and picked up a few items. For dinner tonight I prepared a Seasoned Fried Haddock w/ Mac & Cheese and Cut Green Beans.








I had some Haddock Fillets in the freezer that I laid out in the fridge overnight to thaw. To prepare it I rinsed the fillet in cold water and patted dry with a paper towel. Then sliced the fillet into smaller pieces. I then seasoned it with just a bit of Sea Salt and put the pieces in a Hefty Zip Plastic Bag where I then added Zatarain’s Lemon Pepper Breading Mix. Shook until all the pieces were well coated. I then pan fried them in Canola Oil, frying them about 3 minutes per side until golden brown. Haddock and Zatarain’s Lemon Pepper Mix is a perfect combo.








When I have a craving for Macaroni and Cheese I usually have the individual cup of Bob Evan’s Macaroni and Cheese. Just microwave for 1 1/2 minutes and you have your Mac and Cheese. Good Cheesy Flavor and just enough for 1 person. I also heated up a small can of Del Monte Cut Green Beans and had a slice of Klosterman Wheat Bread. For dessert later a bowl of Del Monte No Sugar Added Peach Chunks.

Seasoned Fried Haddock w/ Macaroni and Cheese and Cut Green Beans

Dinner Tonight: Seasoned Fried Haddock w/ Macaroni and Cheese and Cut Green Beans








Been one long day today. Took my car up to get an oil change and have the tires rotated. Then to the store to pick up a few items and dropped off a couple of prescriptions to be filled at Walmart Pharmacy, and that's where the long day started! I switched Prescription Insurances and of course there's problems. All my tier one prescriptions are only $1 but Walmart was saying that the Insurance was only paying part of the cost. So after an hour of Walmart calling them and myself calling them it was straightened out! It seems nothing is ever easy. For dinner I prepared Seasoned Fried Haddock w/ Macaroni and Cheese and Cut Green Beans.

I had picked a Haddock Fillet on sale at Kroger earlier today. To prepare it I rinsed the fillet in cold water and patted dry with a paper towel. Then sliced the fillet into smaller pieces. I then seasoned it with just a bit of Sea Salt and put the pieces in a Hefty Zip Plastic Bag where I then added Zatarain’s Lemon Pepper Breading Mix. Shook until all the pieces were well coated. I then pan fried them in Canola Oil, frying them about 3 minutes per side until golden brown. Haddock and Zatarain’s is a perfect combo, delicious every time!







I had been craving some more Macaroni and Cheese, so Mac and Cheese with Fish is a perfect pairing! So for a side I heated up an individual cup of Bob Evan’s Macaroni and Cheese. Just microwave for 1 1/2 minutes and you have your Mac and Cheese. I also heated up a small can of Del Monte Cut Green Beans and had a slice of Klosterman Wheat Bread. For dessert a Weight Watchers Vanilla Fudge Swirl Ice Cream Cone.
