Plan Z Phase: This is a Z3 (ZReboot) recipe.

Servings: Can be doubled easily. Serves 12 in small quantities.

Ingredients:

  • 1 bag of fresh cranberries  (12 oz)
  • juice of one half of an orange
  • 1 tsp of freshly grated orange peel (you can freshly remove this from the orange or use dried)
  • 6 tsp of Truvia (stevia)
  • 1 cup of water
  • ¼ tsp of salt

Instructions:

Remove the cranberries from the bag. Pick through to get out any spoiled or brown ones. Then put in a medium sauce pan. Add the other ingredients. Bring to medium high so the liquids start to boil. This will “pop” the cranberries. Continue cooking and stirring often for 5 -10 minutes or until the sauce thickens. It will thicken even more as it cools. Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Cranberry Emergency: I’d consider making two batches of this cranberry sauce–one for those with re-calibrated taste buds and one for those who have not experienced Plan Z. Reason is….this level of sweetness is perfectly tart/sweet for us Plan Z dieters.

Your relatives might need another 4 tsp of stevia in order for them to get the sweetness they need. You’ll just use your judgment; knowing your guests.

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.

Spiral Ham with Apricot Mustard Glaze

The sweetness of the apricot jam combined with the mild bite of the fresh, cracked black pepper corns and the smokiness of the ham make for a savory combination of flavors.

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!
