Fried Ocean Perch w/ Mac and Cheese

Dinner Tonight: Fried Ocean Perch w/ Mac and Cheese





It was Steak and Eggs to start my day off today. For my Steak I fried up a SayersBrook 4 oz. Bison Fillet Mignon. I just seasoned it with some McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Peppercorn Medley. It came out a perfect medium rare! It was so tender and juicy.Then I Scrambled a couple Eggs, toasted 1 slice of Aunt Millie's Light Whole Grain Bread, and a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Good way to start the day! Mostly sunny, humid, and 94 degrees out to day. Took my Hoveround Chair outside and gave it a good cleaning, a much needed cleaning! That was about it for the day. Still fighting with my insurance so I was on the phone again for about 40 minutes! Very upset over this! For Dinner tonight I prepared Fried Ocean Perch w/ Mac and Cheese.



I picked up the Ocean Perch at Kroger the other day, cleaned them and had them in the freezer. Really

love the Kroger Seafood Department, good selections. I laid the bag in the fridge to thaw overnight. To prepare them I preheated a medium size skillet, that I had sprayed with Pam Cooking Spray and added Extra Light Olive Oil, on medium heat. Lightly seasoned them with the McCormick Sea Salt. I then put them in a Hefty Zip Lock Bag and added Zatarain’s Seasoned Fish Fri, shaking the bag then until the Perch Fillets were coated. Added the Fillets to the heated skillet and fried them 3 minutes per side. They came out Golden Brown! Delicious and fresh tasting, I love all Fish and Seafood!



Then for a side I microwaved Stouffer’s Classic Mac and Cheese Mac Cup. Frozen individual Mac
Cups, just microwave and serve. Mac and Cheese in a single serving cup! Tastes great, excellent Cheesy Mac. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop - Pop Corn with a Coke Zero to drink.











Ocean Perch

Ocean perch is mild tasting yet a bit sweet, with a moderately firm texture. The meat is lean, moist

and flaky. Large ocean perch develop a coarse texture. Deep-skinned ocean perch with the fat line removed has the most delicate flavor. The flesh is white, though not as light as cod, and it turns opaque white when cooked.Whole fish may have bulging eyes and distended air bladders, which is a result of being brought up from great depths, not an indication of poor quality.

Seasoned Gulf Coast Grouper w/ Cheddar Potato Bake

Dinner Tonight: Seasoned Gulf Coast Grouper w/ Cheddar Potato Bake




For Breakfast this morning I made some Simply Potatoes Shredded Hash Browns, Heated up some Meijer Diced Ham, fried an Egg Sunnyside Up, made a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. I made a

bed of the Hashbrowns in a bow and sprinkled some Sargento Reduced Fat Sharp Cheddar Cheese. Next I put the Diced Ham over top the Hash Browns then put the Sunnyside Up Egg on to top it off. After Breakfast I headed out to Meijer. I wanted to pick up a small Prime Rib and I needed some new shoes. Having one leg, left leg amputated, I have a collection of new left shoes. Anyway my Tennis Shoe is worn out so i bought a pair of new ones and also a pair of Boots. I love one stop shopping! For Dinner tonight it's a Seasoned Gulf Coast Grouper w/ Cheddar Potato Bake.



I love Fish and Seafood, especially this Florida Gulf Coast Grouper my friends keep bringing me

back up from Florida! It’s good to have friends that also own a house off the South Florida Gulf side.I had a fillet of it in the freezer, laid it in the fridge overnight to thaw. To prepare the fillets I seasoned them with just a bit of Sea Salt and put the fillets in a Hefty Zip Plastic Bag where I then added the Zatarain’s Seafood Breading Mix Seasoning. Shook until the fillets were well coated. Shook off the excess. Then got the Cast Iron Skillet out, sprayed it with a light coat of Pam Cooking Spray and added a tablespoon of Extra Light Olive Oil. Heated the skillet on medium heat. When the skillet was ready I added the Grouper Fillets, frying about 3 1/2 minutes per side until golden brown. Grouper is so meaty and flavorful. Love Fish and Love this Grouper!




Then to go with my Grouper, I prepared a Stouffer’s Cheddar Potato Bake. Another easy to prepare and delicious dish. To prepare this one I’m using the microwave. It comes in a microwavable tray. I just slit the film cover on the tray and microwaved it for 6 minutes, Done! I love this side by Stouffer’s! Delicious Potato Dish, really like the bread crumb topping. For dessert later a Weight Watcher’s Cookie and Cream Ice Cream Bar.
