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

Disguised Chicken With Green Beans - The Zone Diet Recipes

Two 4-block meals
The recipe prevents the comment: "Oh, not chicken again!"

2oz Shreaded Parmesan Cheese - 2P
3 cups Fresh Green Beans -3C
1 cup Onion sliced into rings - 1C
1 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms - 1/2C
2 tsp cornstarch - 1/2 C
1 can Beef Consomme'- 1/2 C
18 olives black and green sliced 6 F
2/3 tsp olive oil 2F
Steam green beans until 1/2 cooked (about 10 minutes). Heat oil in another pan, add onion rings, saute until they begin to soften, remove and add to green beans. In the same pan, saute mushroom in 1/4 cup undiluted consomme' for 2 minutes then toss with green beans, and resteam mixture for 10 minutes.
Add remaining consomme' to onion/mushroom pan, thicken with cornstarch, then add chicken breast. Simmer on low until beans are done. Place green beans, top with chicken pieces, drizzle thickened comsomme' over all, and sprinkle with cheese and olives.
Makes 2 hearty helpings. Add fresh tomato salad to round out carb. blocks.
Fresh Tomato Salad
2 Ripe tomatos, quartered 1C
1 1/2 cups rough chopped red onion 1 1/2 carbs
1/4 cup fresh chopped basil
Quarter tomatos over storage bowl to catch juice. If you lack juice, add a 1/4 cup tomato sauce. Add onions and basil to juice and tomatoes. Toss and refrigerate for 24 hours...shaking occasionally. I hate salad w/o dressing but with this you need none.
