Jennie - O Turkey Breast Tenderloin Fajitas

Dinner Tonight: Jennie - O Turkey Breast Tenderloin Fajitas

Windy all day but it was sunny and a high of 50 degrees! The sun and temps melted a lot of our snow today but still a lot left. They say 60 degrees tomorrow but heavy rain and strong winds coming in with it. Went to Meijer and picked up a few items then stopped by the bank and filled the car up with gas. Got home in time to watch Team U.S.A. Hockey Team win another one, going to the Medal Round! For dinner tonight another new one,Jennie - O  Turkey Breast Tenderloin Fajitas.








It was Fajitas tonight using Jennie - O Extra Lean Boneless Turkey Breast Tenderloins, Ortega Fajita Skillet Sauce, Delallo Tri-Color Sweet Peppers, fresh grated Dutch Gouda Cheese, Green Giant Summer Crisp Sweet Yellow and White Kernel Corn, and Ole Fajita Flour Tortillas. I had all the ingredients except for the Jennie O Turkey which I picked up at Meijer.







As usual if I'm using Turkey it's Jennie - O Turkey. To get started I heated some Canola Oil in a medium size skillet over medium high heat and adding my thin-sliced Turkey Tenderloins. I seasoned them with Sea Salt and a teaspoon of Roasted Ground Cumin. I cooked them until they were well-done, 165 degrees as measured by my meat thermometer. Came out a beautiful and moist golden brown and ready for the rest of the ingredients.

Removed the Turkey from the skillet and added the sliced Sweet Peppers and Sweet Corn Kernels, stirring often until both were tender. Then returned the Turkey to the skillet along with the packet of Ortega Fajita Skillet Sauce. Continued cooking for about 8 minutes until everything was heated through. Served the mix on an Ole Fajita Flour Tortilla, that I heated up in the microwave. Topped everything with some fresh grated Dutch Gouda and sliced Black Olives. What a meal! Love the Jennie - O Extra Lean Boneless Turkey Breast Tenderloins, always a winner! Also had a tablespoon of Daisy Reduced Fat Sour Cream on the side. For dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Double Chocolate Pudding topped with Cool Whip Free.

Seasoned Turkey Breast Steak w/ Steam Crisp Sweet Corn Kernels, Mashed Potatoes,...

Dinner Tonight: Seasoned Turkey Breast Steak w/ Steam Crisp Sweet Corn Kernels, Mashed Potatoes, and Baked French Bread








Another sunny but frigid day out again, minus 3 with the wind chill. Got out this afternoon and finished clearing the driveway again. From that to, I went to the bank, post office, and stopped by Walmart to pick up a few items and a prescription. For dinner prepared the Jennie - O Seasoned Turkey Breast Steak. Tonight I prepared a Seasoned Turkey Breast Steak w/ Steam Crisp Sweet Corn Kernels, Mashed Potatoes, and Baked French Bread.

I came across the Jennie – O Turkey Breast Steak at Walmart a while back, and been using regular ever since! It comes Seasoned and it’s only 130 calories and 3 carbs per serving. You can prepare it several ways, I pan fried mine. To prepare it just preheat a large skillet over medium heat, spray it with nonstick spray. Cook the steaks, turning 2-3 times until meat thermometer inserted into thickest portion of meat reached 165°F, approximately 19-21 minutes. Covered with lid for the last 5 minutes of cooking. Remove from stove top, cover, and let rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Then you have a fine and tasty Turkey Breast Steak! As usual it's another winner from Jennie – O! It was well seasoned, I did add a couple of shakes of Sea Salt while it was cooking.








For one side dish I heated up a can of Green Giant Steam Crisp Super Sweet Yellow and White Kernel Corn, my favorite canned Corn. Then I tried a new Mashed Potato, Betty Crocker Creamy Buttery Mashed Potatoes. Comes in a microwavable container, just add water and heat. It came out very good. I normally buy the Idahoan Mashed Potatoes but Walmart had the Betty Crocker ones on sale so I went with that. Then I baked a loaf of Pillsbury Rustic French Bread. Lightly brushed the top of the loaf with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and sprinkled Sesame Seeds on top before baking. For dessert tonight a Healthy Choice Dark Fudge Swirl Frozen Yogurt.

Mushroom and Sharp Cheddar Turkey Burger w/ Baked Fries

Dinner Tonight: Mushroom and Sharp Cheddar Turkey Burger w/ Baked Fries

The rains and storms finally ended, we ended up with over 2" of rain. We avoided any storm damage like some of the area had. Had to go to Walmart and pick up several items. It just still amazes me on Walmarts prices compared to Kroger! A box of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea at Walmart $1.28 - Kroger $1.98, Tide Detergent Walmart $11.49 - Kroger $12.39, Ball Park Turkey Franks, Fisher Nuts, Del Monte Products, it all keeps adding up. Look before you buy! For dinner tonight I prepared Mushroom and Sharp Cheddar Turkey Burgers w/ Baked Fries for everyone.







I used Jennie – O Turkey Burger Patties (Lean). Only 180 calories and 9 g fat and already made into patties. Pan fried them in a 1/2 Tbs of Canola Oil and seasoned it with Sea Salt and Ground Black Pepper. I served them on an Aunt Millie’s Reduced Calorie Whole Grain Bun and topped with some sauteed sliced Baby Bella Mushrooms and a slice of Sargento Reduced Fat Sharp Cheddar. I also baked some Ore Ida Simply Cracked Black Pepper and Sea Salt Country Style Fries. Served these with a side Daisy Reduced Fat Sour Cream.

Well they were right when they said it would be cooler! Rolled out to get the Morning Paper and the old unofficial Outdoor thermometer said 38 degrees and with the cool breeze that was blowing it felt a bit cooler than that. But I love this weather! It was a beautiful Autumn Day out, sunny and cool. For dinner tonight I prepared a Cheddar Bacon Turkey Burger w/ Baked Fries.

Easy to prepare and only 180 calories and 9 g fat and already made into patties. Pan fried it in Canola Oil about 17 minutes, flipping three times. While the pattie was frying, in another skillet I fried up some Jennie -O Turkey Bacon, another low calorie and lean Jennie – O Turkey Product. The bacon is only 30 calories, 0 carbs and .05 g fat.

Fried Ham and Sunnyside Up Egg on a Cornbread Waffle w/ Hash Browns

Dinner Tonight: Fried Ham and Sunnyside Up Egg on a Cornbread Waffle w/ Hash Browns




For Breakfast, I mean Dinner tonight I went with Fried Ham and Sunnyside Up Egg on a  Cornbread Waffle w/ Hash Browns. I had Breakfast for Dinner tonight and it was delicious! I made a Cornbread Waffle using Martha White Self Rising Enriched White Corn Meal Mix. i made the mix just as you would for Cornbread by mixing the following : Pam w/ Olive Oil Non – Stick Spray, 1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 1 3/4 cups Buttermilk, and 2 cups Martha White Self Rising Enriched White Corn Meal Mix. Just mix all your ingredients in a large bowl. I used the Waffle Griddle, just lightly spray the Griddle with Pam Spray. Pre heat it and when ready just add 2 tablespoons of the batter to the center of the Griddle and close the lid. The Waffle is done as the steam starts to stop coming from the Griddle.

For my Waffle toppers and side I had Fried Ham, a Sunny Side Up Egg, and Hash Browns. The Ham was leftover Ham from the Thanksgiving Feast yesterday. I fried the Ham, my Egg, and the Hash Browns on a Flat Top Griddle. It's always great using the Griddle. All you do is spray it with Pam and you skip on having to use any Oil. Then to assemble this fine dinner I just placed the Waffle on the plate and topped it the Sunny Side Up Egg and Fried Ham. Then had the Hash Browns on the side. Breakfast food is one of the ultimate comfort food's. This  dinner hit the spot as they say. For dessert later a slice of Apple Pie! My Mom made this and she uses Splenda to make it and the taste is incredible!

Pork Chop w/ Seasoned Corn, Mashed Potatoes, and French Bread

Dinner Tonight: Pork Chop w/ Seasoned Corn, Mashed Potatoes, and French Bread

It looks as though our hot and humid weather has returned to the Ohio Valley, and it's going to last through out the week. For dinner I had a Pork Chop w/ Seasoned Corn, Mashed Potatoes, and fresh baked French Bread. I seasoned the Chop with McCormick Grinder Sea salt and Black Peppercorn along with a light coat of flour. I then pan fried it in Extra virgin Olive Oil about 4 minutes per side on medium heat. As a rule they always say to get your Pork at thermometer reading of 165 degrees. After frying the Chop I topped it with JB's Fat Boy Haug Waush Bar b cue Sauce. Love Pork Chops!

For sides I heated up a can of Margaret Holme's Seasoned Corn, I've been using Margaret Holmes products for a while now. I also had Idahoan 4 Cheese Mashed Potatoes. Another very easy side to fix. Just add water and microwave and you have some tasty Mashed Potatoes. Then I baked some more of the delicious French Bread I had purchased from Walmart yesterday. For dessert/snack later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Jolly Time Pop Corn.
