After eating more than my share of "un-Zoned" delights over the last couple days, it is nice to get back on track. This salad is heavy enough to be a meal, but light enough to be a nice break from the holiday fare. I added chicken pieces sauteed in garlic, salt and pepper to a salad with: mixed greens, 1/4 cup kidney beans, 1 TB Gorgonzola cheese, 4 croutons broken into crumbs, 9 pecans broken into pieces. Olive oil and balsamic vinegar dressing to coat. Post thoughts to comments. Makes 2 three block servings.Friday, December 26, 2008

I think I forgot to add the apple to the recipe...I added one whole apple cut into pieces...
ReplyDeleteHi Michele,
ReplyDeleteI just found this blog and I love it! So many great recipes and ideas. Does it get easier after a while trying to figure how to make a meal "zone friendly"?
Trixie-
