WTF is this "snack"?

So I haven't written about my Zone Diet Delivery plan in awhile. This is most likely because it has become something of routine. Each day brings another day's worth of food but I would hardly call the contents exciting -- or creative. Now, I'm really not a picky eater and I am a realist when it comes to these things. This is a diet after all and not a gourmet chef's tasting. Ultimately, all the diet has to do is provide edible food under The Zone 'prescription' in calories low enough to lose weight. After about 3 weeks saw that 'variety' is not one of the primary attributes I would assign to The Zone Diet Delivery. Breakfasts are usually scrambled eggs with something veggie like tucked in. Twice we have had a blintzy thing. (One was quite good while the other was stuffed with canned corned beef hash, feh.) Lunches are almost always salads made with cheap lettuce greens and some sort of meat protien. Additionally, each day has a Zone Perfect bar as a snack. So far there have been only two kinds of Zone Perfect bars despite their website showing over 20 different varieties. (My guess is that they got a good deal on soon to expire or overstock bars.)

I still really do love the convenience and I have lost some weight (although that has stalled with about 5 more pounds left to go -- despite my near religious adherence to the diet.) Some of the meals don't really seem all that Zone if you ask me so I wonder who is actually certifying these meals as Zone? On the upside, I have managed to stay out of the lunchroom at work, I feel better and I'm seldom hungry.

Which gets us to this snack pictured above! What the f*ck is it? I'll tell you what its made of: A slice of eggplant, a couple slices of cucumber, a dusting of parmesan cheese, some boxed seasoned croutons (the kind that no human should ever eat) and to finish it off, banana chips. (Yes, I said banana chips. )

WTF? I didn't see that one on the sample menu page. In fact, I haven't seen much of what is described on the sample menu page.

I am learning, however, that if I want to continue with this diet on my own, its not going to be that hard. Apparently, no special recipes needed. Or ingredients.
