Blue Cheese Dressing

The first time I made this, I put it on top of a wedge salad...and felt like I was eating dinner in a steakhouse. It's that good.

Luscious Lemon Cream

So light and decadent - YUM! Serve with fruit, or any other dessert for extra special deliciousness.

Barbecue Burgers – Zola Style

There’s no way to use a commercial sauce for barbecued meats. They ALL have copious amounts of sugar in them. I know. I checked every bottle in the store, so I set about to come up with a rub and a sugarless barbecue sauce for Plan Z.

Strawberry Milkshake

I think this makes a beautiful, refreshing dessert. If you can’t get fresh strawberries go ahead and use frozen. Slices are best so they don’t get caught in the blender. For a special occasion top it with whipped cream! 

Alfredo Sauce

You can serve this over baked chicken, or make “fettuccini” alfredo with zucchini noodles.

Monster Mouths

A ghoulish (and healthy) Halloween snack idea.

Peach Parfait

The parfait is a serious twist on a Cooking Light recipe I came across, so I need to give them credit but I also wanted you to know it's light and rather healthy.

Jalapeno Popper Crisps

These easy to make Jalapeno poppers are Z3 friendly and only take 15 minutes!

Mexican Chicken Salad

If you are going totally low carb you can serve this over lettuce. Bib lettuce would look nice.

Bacon-Apple Chicken Salad

Everything’s better with bacon. Right? Enjoy this crunch-filled chicken salad. Serve on top of salad or toast one piece of a low-carb bread, butter it and serve open-face.

Pumpkin Spiced Whipped Cream

Serve this on your pancakes instead of syrup. Or if you want some syrup just do a teeny bit; like a capful. And use REAL maple syrup. No diet syrup. A bit of the real stuff is better for you.

Chunky Cajun Peach Sauce

You can reheat this to serve or you can serve it room temp or cold. Just depends on the time of year you make it. In the summer it would be great cold.

Creamy Dessert Sauce

I love this sauce over the inside out apple pie. YUM.

Mexican Seafood Salad (the Z3 version)

The design of this dish is for fancy food for a hot day. You can make this much simpler and less expensive by using less expensive seafood and fish options.

Brown Butter-Sage Cream Sauce

Best served over ravioli; especially a pumpkin ravioli or a butternut squash ravioli.

Cooked “Carpaccio” Salad

I did a cooked variation of this dish and served it as an entrée. Loved it.

Ricotta Cream with Strawberry Compote

AKA VP Anger's 65th Birthday Dessert. This super-simple, light and dreamy dessert is easy enough for a weeknight treat and fancy enough to serve to a dinner party.

Waldorf Salad

This will make a great side dish at your table; even your holiday table. And think of this as a way to use up leftover turkey.

Peanut Butter Yogurt Swirl

This recipe works for breakfast or for dessert. Really satisfying! A great treat and super fast!
