Here's the recipe for the Meatloaf we had last night with some variations.

It would have fed 8-9.  (Would feed 10 if you used the full 2 lbs of ground turkey.)

 

1 lb 10 oz ground turkey breast (Could have been 2 lbs.  That's just what I had.)

2- 2 lb logs of turkey breakfast sausage (I think it was Jenny O)

1/2 C Heinz Reduced sugar ketchup

1/2 C Gluten Free Oatmeal old fashioned rolled oats soaked in 2/3 cup water for at least an hour or cook it some to soften. (I microwaved it for 1.5 min because I was in a hurry.)

1 C egg whites

1 1/2 Cup Celery minced in the food processor

 

I blended it all in the food processor but you could use a mixer.

 

Mound it in an oval in the center of a 9x11 dish.  top with 2 pkgs of cherry tomatoes.

Bake at 350 F (375 F if you need it to cook faster) until internal temp reaches 180 F.  Let sit for 5 min. before you cut it.

 

Notes: 

·         You can easily cut it in half.

·         You can use all turkey breast instead of the sausage, then add your own seasonings.  Since this was a new experiment, I cooked  quarter size patties in a frying pan until it tasted good to me. 

·         I have another recipe that uses all turkey breast and picante sauce with salt and pepper instead of the ketchup, then delete the celery.

·         Instead of the Oatmeal, you can use gluten free bread crumbs soaked in water, potato flakes, mashed potatoes, or cooked rice.

Dr. Sears markers for wellness from zone cruise 2015

From the last zone cruise, here are the blood tests that Dr. Sears uses to determine wellness. 

 

Are You In The Zone?

Balance of cellular inflammation

 

AA/EPA ratio –  finger prick test at order at zonediagnostics.com

Measurement of the balance of initiation and resolution of inflammation –

Goal: Between 1.5 and 3 (1.5 is best)

 

TG/HDL ratio

Marker of insulin resistance in the liver

Goal:  < 0.4 (mmol/l) or <1 (mg/dl)

 

HbA1C

Marker of Long-term glycemic control

Goal: 5%

 

Optional:

Oxidized LDL (OxLDL)  link has test details

To see if you are taking enough polyphenols.

If the 3 tests Dr. Sears listed above are within ideal ranges then the need for the OxLDL test is minimal.  

Here's the link to an article Barry wrote regarding oxidized LDL cholesterol - http://www.zonediet.com/blog/another-new-wrinkle-in-the-cholesterol-story/

Your link is the correct LDL oxidation test (OxLDL). The relative risk ranges are listed on the links below. Dr. Sears says less than 60 is good, under 45 is better.

Most likely the test is a special order from your doctor and may be an out of pocket expense.

Oxidized LDL testing:

Is it worth ordering?

If the 3 tests Dr. Sears listed above are within ideal ranges then the need for the OxLDL test is minimal.

chicken recipes

Here's two easy chicken recipes.  I think the coconut-lime chicken works best with the skin on although I used skinless for both.  I asked the butcher to cut the backbone for me, at no extra charge and I put the whole thing gut side down on a cookie sheet lined with parchment.  The vegetables and apples were good too.   

 

For the Coconut lime, I used a pan with a rack as it instructs, but you could use a cookie sheet with the parchment too.  Just make sure it has sides.  I peeled the ginger and the garlic, sliced it a put it in my $10 electric chopper then dropped the bowl and blade in the dishwasher. (Love that thing.)  You could use dried garlic and ginger instead, just cut back the amounts accordingly.  Look at the bottles and see if they suggest an equivalent.  If not, I'd try 2 teaspoons of minced dried garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon of powdered ginger.  I used coconut palm sugar.  You could use agave.

 

Make it easier with chicken breasts.

 

 

 

yellow squash soup

8-10 yellow squash or as much as will fit in your pot.

wash, remove ends, slice 1/8" thick or use food processor to slice.  The thicker the slices the longer they take to cook.

put in pot and just cover with water.

Boil/simmer until they are soft (a fork goes through the edges without resistance)

pour in colander or use slotted spoon to remove the squash

put the squash back in the pan and use an immersion blender to make it smooth

or put it in a food processor or blender.

add milk (1/4-1/2 cup) to get your preferred thickness and taste

and salt and pepper to taste.  (It takes more salt than you think, but add slowly and taste after each addition.)

for Jan Cruise survival 101, Gluten free and zoned

Cruise survival 101

Breakfast-omelet bar,  Insist on spray oil (you may have to wait for them to get it) and egg whites.  Stuff it with whatever you like (no potatoes).  Top with salsa or cheese.

Look for fresh berries.  They will be hard to find. Ask for some.  Don't eat the ones in syrup on the bar unless you are sure they have no added sugar.  If you can't get any look for fresh apples, pears, oranges.  If you love pineapple, melon, or tropical fruit, just get a few bites.  OR eat a small amount of oatmeal with a few berries.

look for raw almonds or walnuts.  Put some with the berries and stash some in your purse for later.

 

Go early for lunch or at an odd time while they are setting up.  Ask for the chef or someone that knows what is in the food.  Tell him you really need to eat gluten free.  He will most likely bend over backward to tell you what is safe to eat at the different food bars.  Avoid potatoes, corn, rice, grains.  Choose roasted meats, green vegetables, salads.  choose olive oil and vinegars for dressing. Avoid anything sitting in oil, you can bet it is soybean.

 

If you have a seated dinner, go early the first night and tell your water that you need a gluten free menu.  If they don't have one, ask for the manager to help you decide what you can eat.  On some of our cruises I got a dinner menu the night before so I could choose what I wanted and they would make it special for me. 

 

splurge on no sugar ice cream (ask and make sure it is gluten free first).  Find something else to do during, but if you go to the dessert extravaganza, look for the chocolate fountain and the strawberries.  Use more berries than chocolate.  Look for other fresh berries to cover with chocolate.  look for bananas foster (if you like it) and skip the ice cream.  Later you can order some XT from Zone labs and take it 30 min. before a non zoned meal.  It will reduce the blood sugar/insulin spikes.
