Jennie - O Turkey Franks

Dinner Tonight: Jennie - O Turkey Franks




There was a chill in the air this morning! Went out to get the morning papers and it was a bit chilly, 39 degrees this morning. Started my day off with a toasted Healthy Life Whole Grain English Muffin topped with a scrambled Egg and a Jennie - O Sausage. I made the sausage pattie out of Jennie - O Ground Turkey Breakfast Sausage. For the day I got the leaf blower out and cleaned around the outside deck and driveway, the leaves are all turning and falling now. Then inside did some light house cleaning and it was back to my easy chair! NFL Football and the Baseball Play-Offs for the rest of the afternoon. For dinner tonight it's Jennie - O Turkey Franks.




I had picked up a couple of packages of Jennie - O Turkey Franks on my last visit to Walmart a while back. I froze one package and having a Turkey Frank for lunch a couple of times so I thought I would have a couple for dinner tonight.




To prepare them I used a medium size sauce pan that I filled half way with water. Heated on high for a full boil and added the Turkey Franks. Cooked for five minutes, and done! Love these Turkey Franks, when I can find them in stores. The Franks are nice and plump with that Jennie - O freshness and excellent taste. I served them on a Aunt Millie's Whole Grain Reduced Calorie Hot Dog Bun and topped with French's Yellow Mustard. Also had a few Ruffle's Reduced Fat Potato Chips. For dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Chocolate Mousse.

Jennie – O Turkey Frank Cincinnati Style Cheese Coneys w/ Baked Fries

Dinner Tonight: Jennie – O Turkey Frank Cincinnati Style Cheese Coneys w/ Baked Fries

About 12 degrees cooler today than yesterday. They're calling for a high in low 30's Monday through Thursday next week, with snow flurries! Spent the afternoon at rehab visiting my Dad. He's not looking real good at all, he's still just so weak and they found more fluid on his lugs. I hope he pulls through this one. Mom had dinner with my Dad tonight so I was cooking for one. Tonight one of my favorites, Cincinnati Style Cheese Coneys! I prepared Jennie – O Turkey Frank Cincinnati Style Cheese Coneys w/ Baked Fries.








I used my new favorite Turkey Dogs, the Jennie – O Turkey Franks. These cook up great, I've steamed and boiled them and can't wait to get a grill and grill them. I boiled these, it took about 5 minutes and they were ready. I opened up a can of Skyline Original Chili and heated that up for my Chili Topping. I served everything on a Aunt Millie's Reduced Calorie Hot Dog Bun. Then for my toppings I used the Skyline Chili, French's Yellow Mustard, and Sargento Reduced Fat Sharp Cheddar Shredded Cheese. Put it altogether and you have a prime example of the Cincinnati Style Cheese Coney! These are just like the Lay's Potato Chips, "You Just Can't Eat One". I served the Cheese Coneys with Baked Ore Ida Simply Cracked Black Pepper and Sea Salt Country Style Fries. Had a side of Hunt's Ketchup for dipping the Fries and an ice cold Diet Dr. Pepper that I sat in the freezer for about 15 minutes, too good! For dessert/snack later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Jolly Time Pop Corn.

Steamed Hot Dogs and Buns w/ Fat Free Pringle's

Dinner Tonight: Steamed Hot Dogs and Buns w/ Fat Free Pringle's








It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood! Sunny and a high of around 51 degrees. With the last few days of sun and warmer temps we can actually see most of the lawns instead of piles of snow. I had been wanting to try the Jennie - O Turkey Franks but could not find them sold anywhere until I was on-line and seen that Target sells them. I had never shopped at Target before and after this morning I may not again! I had read some not so kind reviews of Target as from people who are handicapped, but they are the only ones in this area that sells the Jennie - O Turkey Franks so I thought I would give them a try.







They opened at 8:00, so I have learned through the years if you have to rely on a stores electric carts you go early so you can use one that's fully charged. I was the third person in as the doors opened and very disappointed right off seeing they only had 3 electric carts for the entire store, that was in sight at least. Then I noticed all 3 carts were unplugged which meant that they had set there all night without being recharged. I checked all 3 carts and all were near dead but I tried one anyway. I got about halfway to the grocery dept. and the cart died. After several minutes I got a clerks attention and he got me a second cart. They were still stocking and some of the aisles were blocked with boxes and pallets but I was finally able to grab a couple of packages of the Jenn O Turkey Franks. I wanted to look around but the cart was fading fast so I headed to check out line. Didn't make it though as the 2nd cart passed away, they brought me a third cart! I was able to make it through the line and to my car before that one had the same fate as the other 2. If I go back to Target it will be for the Franks and nothing else! Needless to say if you have to rely on electric carts you might want to avoid Target and Whole Foods who don't even supply electric carts, at least the Whole Foods here in West Chester. Sorry for the rant, on with the menu! I prepared Steamed Hot Dogs and Buns w/ Fat Free Pringle's.

I'm finally getting a chance to try the Jennie - O Turkey Franks, and I'm glad I did! Nice size Turkey Franks, and steamed up plump and a whole lot of flavor! Got to give these a high rating on the Dog Scale for sure. I usually boil or grill Franks or Hot Dogs but last week I had purchased a steamer and had chance to give it a try today. It worked to perfection, good purchase. As I said the Franks came out nice and plump with lots of flavor, these will make some fantastic Chili Dogs. Served them on a Aunt Millie's Reduced Calorie Hot Dog Bun and topped them with French's Yellow Mustard. Served with a side of Pringle's Fat Free Potato Chips. For dessert/snack later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Jolly Time Pop Corn.
