Plan Z Phase: This is a Z3 (ZReboot) recipe. This goes well with grilled picnic meats. Photo submitted by Plan Z dieter Nancy.

Serves: 4 Servings

Ingredients:

  • 16 oz of button mushrooms. Wash and cut each once in half lengthwise.
  • 2 Tbl of butter
  • 1 cup of Boursin cheese (soft cheese in the cheese case at your store). You can choose your favorite flavor. I use the garlic and herb flavor. There are others that will work, too.
  • ½ cup of cream
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • minced chives (optional)

Instructions:

In a large saute pan sauté the mushrooms in the butter until they loosen and are cooked but not mushy. Medium high works great for this.

Then add the cheese and begin to melt it on medium. Stir it around to break it up. Add the cream to thin the sauce a bit. If you like it thinner you can add more cream. Taste it. Add salt and pepper to your liking.

When I serve it I sprinkle on a bit of minced chives. This is really just for color.

I serve this with grilled chicken breasts or steak. The options are pretty endless. This also makes a great brunch dish served with scrambled eggs. Vegetarian too!

Enjoy!

Cheers,

Dauphinoise Potatoes (aka Potato Gratin)

This is a wonderful potato casserole from the southeast part of France. Works great on a buffet too if you like room temp potatoes or have a chafing dish. For the LOWEST glycemic index, make this…
