Plan Z Phase: This is a Z2 (ZReduction) recipe.
It’s all the rage in the big city. Have a runny egg on top of your burger. Well, you can do that in ZReduction too! I just ate mine and I’m stuffed!
Servings: Serves 1
Ingredients:
- 1, 4 oz burger patty
- 1 large egg
Other things to inspire you –on the side
- Tomato slices
- Raw or sautéed onion
- A salad
- 1 cup of veggies
- Salsa on top of your burger
- Iceberg lettuce under your burger
- Sautéed peppers on top
- A smear of prepared horseradish on your burger…
- 1 tsp of a condiment like mustard or ketchup; even bbq sauce and more…
Instructions:
Take a large saute pan and spray one side with olive oil. Put in your burger patty. Cook the one side til it has a nice sear. Maybe 3 minutes. Turn it over. Season as you like with sea salt and pepper. When the second side is almost done (maybe 2 minutes more for medium) spray the other side of the pan and crack in your egg. I cooked mine sunny-side up but you can turn it if you like or even cook the yolk through. Your choice. Season your egg and decide what you’d like on the side. Just follow the regular diet guidelines.
Quick lunch. Totally modern concept.
Enjoy!
Cheers,
Roasted Prime Rib
When I was a kid this was served at very special meals. My mother made hers plain. I had no idea how incredibly fabulous this meat could taste until I started adding the meat rub!
Zola-fied Berghoff Spinach
The Berghoff is a famous Chicago restaurant. Their creamed spinach is an institution in itself. This is my ZReduction version.
This was a nice change for a reduction meal. I can’t wait for reboot when I’ll add a thick wedge of cheddar to the stack.
Yummy, yummy, yummy! I’m going to leave the yolk a little more runny next time! Great with sliced heirloom tomatoes!
Nice change for lunch.
Isn’t an egg and meat both proteins? Thought we weren’t supposed to mix proteins?
You can mix proteins. That don’t mix thing is old. If it’s still appearing somewhere I’d love to hear where so we can get it deleted. I mix proteins in ec recipes all the time now. Just make sure you don’t go over 8 oz total.
I made this last night and it was a very satisfying meal! I made sautéed peppers and onions on the side with a tomato slice! Husband and daughter loved it too!
