Got any good tasting, easy to do, low carb recipes?

Question

ok, I know there are a lot of different recipes on the web, in books, on video, on tv etc, but I just wanted your low carb recipes LOL

BTW, low carbing can mean just cutting out sugar and breads.. I feel much better with out sugar and breads.. don't you think that is healthy? Doesn't mean you have to cut out salads etc..

Answer 1

then i would say, cut out the sugar and breads. Any meal that envolves sugar, use splenda, any meal that envovles bread, cut it out and used an alternative like, actually just dont have the meal cause the meal was designed the way it is and changing it too much might make it taste horrible. I like food, and when i cook, I make it delicous and dont even worry about the carbs, I just cut down my intake. I love salads, i just made a really good one the other day, the way I made it wasnt low carb but just take out the carbs and it will probably still taste great. It was a Romano lettuce with some caesar, avocado, bacon bits, dried tomatoes, crutons, some parmason cheese...mmm. Cut down on the intake, not the taste.-------------------------------------------------------------------Ha ha, hope you find a good one....you know, an angel came to me and gave me these holy recipies...here, try them.

Answer 3

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://bitly.im/aMCn8

The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

Answer 4

Low carb can be very healthy, a lot of people don't understand it at all, and a lot don't do it correctly, they think meat and cheese is all you eat.
If you eat lots of fresh veggies, some whole grains, chicken and fish, what could be healthier than that? Here is one of my favorite recipes.

Chicken and Eggplant Parmesan

Prep. time: 10 minutes Cooking time: 32 minutes
Serves: 4

1 small eggplant, about 1 pound, cut into 1/4-inch rounds
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
fresh ground black pepper
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, (about 3)
2 cups canned crushed tomatoes in thick puree ( I addedseveral large cloves of garlic to the sauce)
1/2 pound mozzarella cheese, cut into thin slices
1/3 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, lightly packed ( I substituted about 1/2 jar of pesto and it worked well)



Directions

Heat the broiler. Arrange the eggplant in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Coat both sides of the eggplant with 2 1/2 tablespoons of the oil and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. ( iused an olive oil spray to speed thing up a bit) Broil, turning once, until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Turn off the broiler and heat the oven to 425 degrees.

In a large nonstick frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over moderately high heat. Season the chicken with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper and add to the pan. Partially cook the chicken for 2 minutes per side and remove from the pan. When cool enough to handle, cut the chicken crosswise into 1/4 inch slices.

Oil an 8-inch square baking dish. Put one third of the eggplant in a single layer in the dish. Top with half of the chicken, half of the tomatoes, half of the mozzarella, one third of the Parmesan, half of the basil, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Repeat with another third of the eggplant, the remaining chicken, tomatoes, and mozzarella, another third of the Parmesan, and the remaining basil. Top with the remaining eggplant and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Drizzle with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil. Bake for 20 minutes and let sit for 5 minutes before cutting.

Another one of my quick favorite things was lettuce wraps; use large lettuce leaves, spread with mayo, mustard or a dressing of your choice then layer with thin sliced meats such as turkey breastor roast beef and /or cheese, add some thin sliced veggies such as tomato, onion, cucumber, sprouts, etc, rollup and enjoy!

I also like the quick stir fry:
Heat a skillet witht alittle olive oil and add:
Bagged coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage, somtimes with carrots & red cabbage)
and /or fresh sliced zucchini & yellow squash
throw in whatever fresh sliced vegetables you have; green pepper, onion, etc
frozen peas are a good complement to some mixtures

Stir fry till the vegetables are slightly wilted then finish whatever way you like;

A cream sauce-add a few tablespoons cream, maybe some cooked crumbled bacon or a sprinkle of cheese

A tomato sauce-fresh or canned chopped tomato or tomato sauce, some garlic or italian herbs, spice it up with red pepper, a dash of lemon juice

Italian- add fresh garlic, red pepper, a sprinkle of fresh grated parmesan or romano and a few pepperoni slices

Answer 5

3Medium Zucchini
½Cup Onion – chopped fine
½ Cup Bacon Bits (Real Bacon)
1Tsp Garlic Salt
3Cups Shredded cheese – divided (I use Mexican Blend)



Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Quarter squash lengthwise then slice into 1/4” thick “moons”

In mixing bowl by hand stir up squash, bacon, onion seasoning and 2 cups cheese. Spray 9” X 3” round baking dish with Pam. Put mix in baking dish and top with remaining cup of cheese.

Bake uncovered at 375 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes.

Answer 6

Chicken fajitas
I use wheat tortillas, saute chicken breast (add favorite flavoring) using small pieces...
Fill the tortilla with lettuce, cheese, tomato, onion and light sour cream if you wish.

Salads are good, add turkey or ham.

Hamburgers on the grill, NO BUN. Wrap the hamburger in a big lettuce leaf, fill with condiments!

I don't know how much carb the chicken wing recipe has but I like it most because it is my own recipe!

Answer 8

heres a quick LC dessert, ricotta cheese, splenda, vanilla, cinnamon, its like eating rice pudding, low carb is very healthy eating, dont listen to what vette person said......... Atkins is not only advocate of LC.

Answer 9

Not to sound harsh, but low carbohydrate dieting is a fad diet that can actually be extremely bad for your health. Dr. Atkins weighed 248 pounds when he died with severe hardening of the arteries. Your total calorie intake is what to watch.

Answer 10

NOPE! Low-carb is an unhealthy fad.
