Plan Z Phase: This is a Z2 (ZReduction) recipe. Another great recipe submitted by Plan Z dieter, Amy.

Servings: Serves 2

Ingredients:

  • 6 romaine lettuce hearts
  • 2 chicken breasts (6-8 oz)
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1 pkt Truvia
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ¾ cup water

Instructions:

Cook your chicken breasts in whatever the easiest fashion is for you; poach them or bake them.

While the chicken breasts are cooking you can mix all the dry spices together.

When the chicken breasts cool, shred them – this is easiest done by using two forks and pulling in opposite directions.

Put shredded chicken into a sauté pan, pour the mixed spices over it and add the water. Turn up to medium high heat and bring to a boil – cook until it’s mixed well, heated through and almost all the water is gone.

Lay out 3 romaine lettuce hearts on each plate and fill each with chicken mixture. The romaine hearts will fold up just like a taco shell and they crunch like one too!

You can also add tomatoes and onions if you want since the lettuce leaves will only use up your 1 cup of salad greens – we chose to just add tomatoes to ours.

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!
