Plan Z Phase: This is a Z3 (ZReboot) recipe. Photo submitted by Plan Z dieter Nancy.

Serves: Serves 4

Ingredients:

  • one cup (maximum) assorted baby greens per person
  • 1 chopped red pepper to add color

Dressing:

  • 1/4 cup walnut pieces
  • 2 Tbsp mustard (Dijon, preferably)
  • 2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste (optional; just a dash will do it)

Instructions:

In your blender, grind up the walnuts, 2 tablespoons of mustard and a drizzle of the olive oil (just enough to get the blender moving). Grind until well chopped. Then, in a small stream, add the rest of the olive oil. This will make a thick dressing and more than you need to dress the 4 small salads. Save the rest to use in another salad or as a sandwich spread. Lightly dress your greens and toss.

Put your greens on the plate and top with the red pepper bits. Grind a bit of salt and pepper on top (optional).

Enjoy!

Cheers,
