Sides & Veggies

Okay. This seems so simple. Everyone wants a fast breakfast or snack. Your kids will be giddy with this as their breakfast or their after school snack.

My husband goes ga-ga for these things. He loves them so much he’s even started volunteering to make them!

This recipe makes a yummy vegetarian lunch or side dish to go with a protein. I also put it in Zola to GO! because it can travel to a buffet.

This mushroom dish was designed to go with steak but I am confident it will go well with chicken or even an omelet. The taste is rich so be ready for some big YUMs around your table.

This recipe is SUPER simple and SUPER BIG YUM! I don’t crave potatoes anymore but I can develop a craving for this stuff!

This recipe is for all the vegetarians out there. Thank you dieter Nancy for this photo. For you non-vegetarians this makes a great side dish to go along with a grilled meat. We had this last night with grilled Andouille sausage and had a lovely meal.

Dieter Debbie created this fabulous recipe. Thanks Debbie!

This is a very thick soup. If you like your soup thinner you can add tomato juice to thin it out. I'd say a couple of cups of juice would be plenty.

Debbie says, "I made some roasted nuts last night for an election party, they were so good I had to share them. These were amazing and so yummy."

Quick, simple and a great side to any dish.

This recipe was submitted by Plan Z dieter Debbie. Debbie says, "Here is an idea for Thanksgiving. Many of us have had this before, but wanted to share it again."

During the last five minutes of roasting time for the Brussels sprouts pull the pan out and sprinkle on the bacon bits and the cheese. Put back in the oven for the last five minutes and the cheese will melt, the bacon will get warm and the sprouts will be ready to serve.

"Little plates" restaurants have become all the rage. At two different Chicago restaurants I ordered a mushroom dish that I loved so much I had to figure out how to make it.

If you are serving this dish with the salmon, place the salmon on the plate and then spread the tomatoes and zucchini around it for color.

When I’m designing diet recipes I try to come up with ways to give you the experience of non-diet food so you don’t feel like you are missing your favorites. On the ZReboot portion of Plan Z you can enjoy this squash and hopefully you won’t even miss the brown sugar in the traditional version.

This goes well with grilled picnic meats.

This look great and perfect to serve over the holidays to impress your guests.

These are perfect for a comforting snack or if you need to make an appetizer for a party. YUM!

This is such an easy dish to make. My husband doesn’t even miss onion rings he loves these so much.
