BBQ Ranch Sauce (Smear) for Burgers

This will go well with beef burgers or even ground chicken breast burgers or grilled chicken breasts; even a steak.

Melon Mandarin Salad

A tasty fruit salad that is a breeze to make and a unique way to round out a meal. 

Lime-Cumin Vinaigrette

This makes a mild but flavorful dressing to accent anything Mexican or Southwestern. If you want it spicy you can add a dusting of cayenne before blending.

Grilled Romaine

Okay, don’t freak on me. Grilled romaine is really good and tastes better than it looks. Impress your guests with something they’ve probably never had before.

Tuna-Salad-Salad

Tuna salad on top of a salad? Let's do it!

Tuna Salad

Dieter Sarah eats tuna salad to help her lose weight on ZReduction. This is her "magic" recipe.

Roasted Tomato Sauce

You’ll think you’re eating at an Italian Grandma’s house when you taste this.

Smoked Salmon Salad

Since leafy greens are unlimited you can double (or triple) the amount of greens used in this recipe if you want to make it stretch.

Seafood Dipping Sauce

My associate, Jennifer, brought me a recipe for dipping sauce. When I served it, I paired it with crab cakes. YUM.

Dieter Claire’s Taco Seasoning

From Dieter Claire: Make this in bulk and store it in a jar. It's less expensive than taco seasoning packets and has no fillers. Plus, I can tweak the flavors to suit my family.

Tuna Nicoise Salad

This is a low carb potato-free tuna Nicoise that is a-ok for ZReduction.

The Secret Slaw

Try this Zolafied coleslaw recipe and you'll never go hunting for the secret Chick-Fil-A recipe again.

Shrimp Salad

This comes together in a FLASH. When it’s hot outside and you want something easy but on the gourmet side, this hits the spot.

Porcini-Shiitake Mushroom Sauce

This is true gourmet cooking that’s simple. Porcini mushrooms pack so much punch they are almost as decadent as morels. This sauce is rich – for sure.

Exotic Egg Salad

This is great as a light lunch time meal and a great holiday recipe. The juxtaposition of the sweeter apricots with the curry has the exotic taste I was looking for.

Tomato Cream Sauce

This sauce is so versatile. Serve over cooked chicken breast (or tenderloins) or fish of any kind. Even use it as a pool of sauce with broiled scallops on top. This can be comfort food or fancy dinner party food depending on how you serve it or what you serve with it.

Tarragon Mustard Shrimp

This dish made a wonderful lunch salad entrée in our Plan Z kitchen. I think it would be GREAT as an appetizer at a cocktail party, too.

Mediterranean Cucumber Salad

This simple salad can be prepared in minutes and offers a light flavor, a bright bowl full of color and cool crunch on a warm day!

Russian Traditional Salad

This delicious recipe was submitted by Plan Z dieter Bruce. Bruce says, "We saw this sixteen years ago on a trip to visit our daughter in-law. They keep it from day to day and just add to it when more is needed."
