Chili #4

Z2-Soup,ZSpecialties,Z2-Entrees,Z2-Beef,ZS-Zola to Go

I have designed several chili recipes for Plan Z. This is one of those that is very straightforward and simple. It doesn’t even have a lot of ingredients.

Cabbage Rolls

Z2-Beef,Z2-Entrees

We were really happy with the way it turned out and I think you could adjust the seasonings to your own taste if you want more garlic or more salt, etc.

Italian Pepper Steak in a Crock Pot

Z2-Soup,Z2-Entrees,Z2-Beef

This is a great crock pot recipe. Super simple but really tasty.

Green Chili Burgers

Z2-Beef,Z2-Entrees

These might sound a little suspect but they are really a delightful twist on your average hamburger.

Southwestern Burgers

Z2-Beef,Z2-Entrees

Burgers with a Southern side!

Mexican Meatloaves

Z2-Beef,Z2-Entrees

If you like your meatloaf extra spicy, you can serve with sliced jalapenos.

Ground Beef and Roasted Poblano Roll-Ups

Z2-Beef,Z2-Salads,ZS-Zola to Go,Z2-Entrees,ZSpecialties

It’s really a sort of Spanish-Mexican comfort food. You can, of course, make them spicy if you want to.

Taco Two Salad

Z2-Beef,Z2-Salads,ZSpecialties,Z2-Entrees,ZS-Zola to Go

I had a hankerin’’ for a taco salad. I wanted some hot taco meat with a cold salad as a counter-point. Decided to make a new recipe so this is our second taco salad recipe. Taco Two!

Asian Sirloin Steak Stir Fry

Z2-Beef,ZSpecialties,Z2-Entrees,ZS-Zola to Go

The leftovers for this meal will travel well so make extra and you can take some to work for lunch! This is not an overly spicy dish. If you want it HOT you can add some cayenne.

“Spaghetti” and Meatballs

Z2-Beef,Z2-Entrees

"Spaghetti" and meatballs -- yes, that's what I said. I think this is my favorite so far! -- Plan Z dieter Amy.

Tomato Steak Stew

Z2-Soup,Z2-Entrees,Z2-Beef

Made this tonight and was very happy with it – it would count as your vegetable and your meat although you could definitely add a green salad. I found it to be very filling.

Sloppy Joes

Z2-Beef

A really simple, yet really tasty meal. This a favorite around the Zola HQ for a lunch time treat.

Beef with Zola’s Asian Orange Sauce

Z2-Beef,ZSpecialties,Z2-Entrees,ZS-Dieter Favorites

We had a big party the other day. I wanted to serve several items that are approved on Plan Z. This beef recipe can even be eaten on the ZReduction portion of the diet.

Horseradish Burgers with a Warm Salad

Z2-Beef,Z2-Entrees,Z2-Salads

This makes a nice, easy lunch or quick dinner.

Great Steak

Z2-Beef,Z2-Entrees

Many grocery stores now have 6-8 oz filet mignon steaks available. They are about 3/4 “ thick and a perfect size for Plan Z.

Zola Burgers

Z2-Beef,ZS-Dieter Favorites,Z2-Entrees,ZSpecialties

These burgers are ultra-easy to make. You can even form patties and freeze them for later grilling or grill a bunch at once so you can have leftovers.

Barbecue Burgers, Zola Style

Z2-Beef,Z2-Entrees

There are two stages to making burgers this way. The Rub. The Burger. If you are not a major cook don’t worry. This looks harder than it is. Stick with this and you’ll love your burgers!

Beef & Vegetable Stew

Z2-Soup,Z2-Entrees,Z2-Beef

This stew will contain your meat and vegetable portion, serve with salad greens for a complete meal.

Beef and Vegetable Soup

Z2-Soup,Z2-Entrees,Z2-Beef

Tastes very much like the traditional version but this one doesn’t include higher carbohydrate vegetables like carrots and potatoes. Still quite delightful, though. Brings back memories of grandma.

Cooked Cabbage Salad

Z2-Beef,Z2-Salads,ZSpecialties,Z2-Entrees,ZS-Zola to Go

This recipe is compliments of Dieter Rose. Rose loves cooked cabbage and this does the trick for her. You can take this to work cold and reheat in the microwave too.
