Zone diet is the latest nutrition strategy that promises to improve  health, weight and athletic performance with correct ratio of carbohydrate to protein to fat intake. The  basis for Zone Diet  follows a formula of 40% carbs , 30% protein and 30% fats created by Barry Sears PhD. According to Dr Sears, this dietary regimen results in a greater delivery of oxygen to the working muscles, a condition known as "The Zone", where athletes perform better, mental focus is enhanced, and life is generally a better place

Curried Chicken Salad - The Zone Diet Recipes

4 servings, 4 blocks each
Hope I got the blocks right. It's as close as I have been
able to get (and still stay in the Zone) to the incredible
chicken salad served at "The Glass Pheasant" English tearoom
in Newport News, Virginia.
16 oz. chicken breast cooked and diced into large chunks (16 protein)
5 cups celery, sliced (2 blocks carbohydrate)
2 cups pineapple, cubed (4 blocks carbohydrate)
8 tsp light mayonnaise or 2 2/3 tsp regular mayonnaise* (8 blocks fat)
48 peanuts** (8 blocks fat)
2 apples (4 blocks carbohydrates)
1 cantaloupe (4 blocks carbohydrate)
2 cups strawberries (2 blocks carbohydrate)

Combine the chicken breast, celery, pineapple and peanuts in a bowl. Combine the mayo and curry powder. Start with 1/4 teaspoon curry, especially if you make your own curry or it's a fresh bottle. Toss the curry/mayo with the chicken mixture. Divide into 4 equal portions. Serve on a leaf of red & green romaine, with 1/2 apple, sliced, a quarter of the cantaloupe, and 1/2 cup of strawberries. Makes a great summer lunch. If it's a really special occasion, you can skip apple or cantaloupe, and serve this with glasses (4 oz) of chilled Pinot Grigio or Chardonnay.
