Famous Burger Meatloaf

This is a “Whopper” of a meatloaf, designed to taste like the famous burger. I hope you enjoy.

Sauteed Spinach

Since spinach is an unlimited, you can have as much as you like. It doesn't count towards your veggie portion which means you can have this and another veggie, too. YUM!

Lemon-Garlic Chicken Kebabs on Top of a Chopped Salad

Grilling makes Plan Z easy and popular. This dish can be served to a whole family or even as part of an outdoor cookout party.

Cabbage Soup

All the ingredients spend a lot of loving time together in the pot to make an amazingly simple and flavorful soup.

Unstuffed Cabbage Rolls

Dieter Jessica made this meal on one of her first days of ZReduction. It was so delicious she wanted to share it with everyone.

Burger and Egg

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!

Pork Loin Chops with Sizzlin’ Cherry Sauce

This dish comes together quickly. Two pans and voila. If you don’t like spicy food you can leave the cayenne out. It does give a nice little zip to the sweet cherries though so you might consider leaving it in or just cutting it back.

Turkey or Chicken Meatloaf

For a change of pace you can try a unique meatloaf. This one comes with an optional extra sauce in case you want to really ramp up the flavor.

If you love cabbage, you are going to freak out about how good this is. All we can say about this recipe is that if you hate cabbage this meal might convert you!

Fruit Parfait

This is a must try, a wonderfully light and healthy dessert.

Z2 Chicken and Eggplant Stacks (EASY and QUICK)

This is super flavorful. Tastes just like chicken parmesan without the cheese. Don’t be afraid of eggplant. This stuff is GREAT.

Zippy Scallion Onion Salad

This recipe is designed for your barbecue needs. Of course you can eat it with anything but I had the Korean BBQ Sauce in mind when I paired these up. The Korean sauce is sort of sweet and then this is zippy.

Shrimp with Jalapeno Vinaigrette

This will make a beautiful meal for a high summer night. Can be served as an intimate dinner for two or multiplied for company. Colorful too!

Spinach Sauteed with Garlic and Chopped Tomato

This is quick cooking at its best…or novice cooking for those who are just discovering their talents in the kitchen.

Crunchy Top Cod

This dish takes no time at all. All you have to do is crust it and toss it in your oven. Come back later, and your entrée is ready! I served mine with sautéed spinach with garlic and tomato.

Spicy-Sweet Green Bean Medley

Add this zippy side dish to your favorite piece of protein for a vitamin packed veggie punch.

My Mom’s Meatloaf

This is very close to my mother's meatloaf recipe. I used to serve this with mashed potatoes and corn when I wanted comfort food. Not Anymore! I also used to say that if I ever ended up on death row and they asked me what I wanted for my last meal, this would be it. It’s such a BIG YUM and brings back fond memories.
