Plan Z Phase: This is a Z2 (ZReduction) recipe.

Serves: 4 servings

Ingredients:

  • 4 small chicken breasts, grilled or poached sliced or cut into cubes
  • 2 apples, cored and chopped. You can leave the skin on.
  • 2 cups of celery chopped into chunks.
  • 1 cup of chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup of cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup of cucumber, peeled and chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • herbs… you can also add some Italian herb seasoning or dried tarragon if you like
  • greens, you choose which ones and how much. I use romaine and butter lettuce.
  • your favorite salad dressing from the recipe section. I love the balsamic-pesto dressing.

Instructions:

Put everything into a bowl and stir. Pour on your salad dressing just before you dig in.

Note: This leaves you with the ability to eat another half apple or half fruit portion for your dessert and it also gives a little wiggle room to eat a small veggie portion on the side or added to the salad. For example if you have a little cooked asparagus left over from the night before you can add this to your salad.

Enjoy!

Cheers,

Roasted Prime Rib

When I was a kid this was served at very special meals. My mother made hers plain. I had no idea how incredibly fabulous this meat could taste until I started adding the meat rub!

Zola-fied Berghoff Spinach

The Berghoff is a famous Chicago restaurant. Their creamed spinach is an institution in itself. This is my ZReduction version.

Cranberry Royale (EASY)

This is a takeoff of a cranberry bake recipe from Southern Living. This is homey, tasty, and not too sweet. Just a little cranberry twang but plenty of sweetness in the apples.

Chive Butter Biscuits

This is a combination of a few recipes I found. Love the fact that these are low carb and tasty!
