This boneless prime rib roast spends a night in the refrigerator to dry before being rubbed with horseradish and mustard, sprinkled with seasonings, and roasted to perfection. Serve it with the thin, savory pan gravy called au jus.
Zone diet. The Zone diet is a high-fat, low carbohydrate fad diet devised by biochemist Barry Sears. It specifies the consumption of calories from carbohydrates and protein in a specified ratio, recommending eating five times a day to create a sense of satiety that discourages overeating.
Every meal on the Zone has the same proportions: 30% protein, 30% fat, and 40% carbs. What that looks like on the plate is a palm-sized portion of protein, two-thirds of the plate filled with nonstarchy fruits and vegetables, and a dash of monounsaturated fat like olive oil or slivered almonds.
