A Trio of Super-Simple Breakfast Casseroles
ZS-Dieter Favorites,Z3-Eggs,ZSpecialties,Z3-Entrees
I'm thinking of starting a company called “Just Add Eggs.” Well, maybe I'm kidding but this just might be a theme for these breakfast casseroles. I made them all the same way.
Broccoli Cheese Soup
Z3-Soups & Stews,ZSpecialties,ZS-Dieter Favorites,Z3-Vegetarian,ZS-Zola to Go,ZReboot
I designed this broccoli cheese soup for the average cook. It only takes a few minutes to chop the veggies and then put it in the pot and let the magic happen. All you have to do is stir it. How easy is that?
Egg Muffins
ZS-Zola to Go,Z3-Eggs,ZSpecialties,ZS-5 Ingredients or Less,Z3-Entrees
Easy to make and freezer friendly, egg muffin cups make for a great grab-and-go breakfast. I love switching up ingredients – I’ll do bacon, swiss, onion and spinach one time. Ham, cheddar and broccoli. Sausage, mozzarella, tomatoes and mushrooms. The possibilities are endless!
Chicken Under a Brick
Z3-Poultry,ZS-5 Ingredients or Less,Z3-Entrees,ZSpecialties
One of my favorite French bistro dishes is chicken under a brick. I decided I had to figure out how to make it myself. Most places make it in a wood burning oven. I don't have one so I had to make adjustments. It worked. I hope you like it and enjoy it.
Zucchini Lasagna
Z3-Beef,ZSpecialties,Z3-Entrees,ZS-Dieter Favorites
This lasagna has no noodles. Standing in for the noodle layers are zucchini sliced the long way.
Anniversary Chicken Tenders
Z3-Poultry,ZSpecialties,Z3-Entrees,ZS-Zola to Go
Anniversary chicken is a rather famous recipe. Been around a long time. I don’t have any idea, though, where the name came from. I made my own twist on this recipe. Most often it’s made with chicken breast. I made mine with chicken tenders.
Brown Butter-Sage Cream Sauce
Z3-Vegetarian,ZSpecialties,Z3-Sauces & Dressings,ZS-Holiday,Z3-Entrees
Best served over ravioli; especially a pumpkin ravioli or a butternut squash ravioli.
Zucchini Noodles (Zoodles)
ZS-5 Ingredients or Less,Z3-Vegetarian,ZSpecialties,Z3-Sides
You’ll never miss the pasta if you start serving these with your Italian dishes. They are pretty, too!
Cauliflower Mash
ZS-5 Ingredients or Less,Free Content,ZS-Holiday,Z3-Vegetarian,ZSpecialties,Z3-Sides
The touch of nutmeg in here really makes the dish. Try this as a substitute for mashed potatoes. It’s really quite delightful
Buttered Mushrooms
Z3-Vegetarian,ZSpecialties,ZS-5 Ingredients or Less,Z3-Sides
Dieter Rebecca first had this warm and rustic side dish while in Ireland on a road trip in 1994. These mushrooms where in every Irish B&B Dieter Rebecca visited. She loved the recipe so much she recreated it for Plan Z! Hope you enjoy.
Shrimp de Jonghe with Zucchini Noodles
ZSpecialties,Z3-Entrees,Z3-Seafood,ZS-Holiday
I Zolafied this decadent Italian appetizer by minimizing the bread crumbs and using zucchini noodles instead of pasta.
Turkey Fricassee
Z3-Poultry,ZSpecialties,ZS-Holiday,Z3-Entrees
I love to take the leftover turkey and transform it into something different. French comfort food. BIG YUM.
Broccoli Cheese Brunch Pie
ZSpecialties,Z3-Entrees,Z3-Vegetarian,Z3-Eggs,ZS-Zola to Go
Breakfast. Lunch. Brunch or even a light dinner. You can even serve this as a side dish at a family event. Even the kids who don’t like veggies will like this one.
Halibut with Shallots and Bacon
Z3-Seafood,ZSpecialties,ZS-5 Ingredients or Less,Z3-Entrees
They say everything goes better with bacon. From the sounds coming out of my husband when he took his first bite I’d say that’s on target. He loved this dish.
Italian Sausage Zucchini Casserole
Z3-Beef,ZSpecialties,ZS-Zola to Go,Z3-Entrees
This dish is Italian comfort food. I curl up on sofa with a bowl of this and watch a movie. You can go totally low-carb with this one and make it without the pasta. Tastes just as good. This also makes a great casserole addition to a pot luck party.
Authentic Italian Meatballs
Z3-Beef,ZS-Zola to Go,ZSpecialties,Z3-Entrees
These meatballs are my take on an authentic meatball recipe from New York city. These actually have a cheesy element to them that make them super yummy. BIG YUM!
Chicken Pot Pie Bake (for Turkey leftovers, too!)
ZS-Holiday,Z3-Poultry,ZSpecialties,ZS-Zola to Go,Z3-Entrees
The inside of this pie bake tastes just like Midwest comfort food. You won't even notice the potatoes are missing. It has just enough carrots to remind you how sweet they are. Same for the peas. The onion, celery and the mushrooms give it the depth of flavor you'll remember from childhood. The topping isn't your average pie crust. This one is low carb. So it's not like a biscuit either. I'm still trying to perfect low carb biscuits, so this is sort of a cross-breed.
Harry O’s Sweetheart Pizzas
Z3-Beef,ZSpecialties,Z3-Pork,ZS-Dieter Favorites,Z3-Entrees
Radio DJ Harry O in Mason City, IA offers up his latest ZReboot recipe. Simple, yet delicious.
French Country Creamy-Cheesy Chicken Casserole
Z3-Poultry,ZS-Zola to Go,Z3-Entrees,ZSpecialties
This tastes like a little bit of France in your home. This one has pasta in it so it hits Z3.5. If you make it without pasta you could have it earlier in Z3. All the directions will stay the same if you make the Z3 version simply omit the pasta.
Asparagus with Toasted nuts
ZS-5 Ingredients or Less,Z3-Vegetarian,ZSpecialties,Z3-Sides
Timing the side dishes to come out and be warm when served can also be a challenge. I am offering up this idea for an asparagus side dish because asparagus tastes good at any temperature.
