    I need a recipe for a potluck.  Something that has balanced blocks so I can take it with me and eat some of it for my meal to stay in the zone.  Doesn't have to be fancy, just quick and easy to transport. Thanks

    Jennifer, Zone balanced chili would be easy and is always a good choice for a pot luck.

    How about a bowl of hummus with cut up vegy's. Or a chef salad type dish with different types of protein on top? Like turkey breast, roast beef, cheese etc.

    Chili is a great idea and I may do that for another potluck I have coming up. Unfortunately, another member of the club always brings chili. Claire, humus is a great idea too, but this isn't the "try something new" kinda group either. I decided to make the zoned lasagna from the Zone Meals in Seconds book. I also make a salad with parmesan cheese (just a little), red, orange and yellow bell pepers, and mixed greens. I also made home-made italian dressing with more red wine vinegar and water than olive oil. For the lasagna I made it 16 blocks instead of 12 blocks so I can feed more people and I used the ground turkey instead of the veggie crumbles. We will see how it goes. It sure smells good. I'll take pictures of it. How do you post pictures in a post?

    Just got back from my potluck. The salad wasn't all that popular but I wasn't counting on it to be. I now have salad for lunch tomorrow. The lasagna, however, was a big success and it was all gone! I know the no-bake noodles aren't zone favorable, but it hit the spot for my pasta craving. It's a good "every once in awhile" meal.
